An Olsen fan but this one missed the mark for me. I felt it drag.

Not my favorite

Didn’t particularly care for performance but really enjoyed this book! Story line kept me going and had a good ending. Didn’t leave me hanging!

I love Gregg Olsen and I've listened to several of his books. This may have been a good story but there were about 20 characters in the story and only one narrator. She made a gruff voice for the male parts; a whiny valley girl voice for the teenagers and just different accents for the women. It was awful and distracting.
I can't really rate the story due to the narration.

Worst! Narrator! Ever!

Definitely a new favorite author, great characters, great setting and kept me guessing. Now I’m on to book two!

I can’t believe this was a free book!

As a lot of others have said the narrator can't do men or kids voices. But I thought she did pretty well overall. I liked the story, suspenseful and interesting. I'll read ( listen ) to more from this author.

I enjoyed it

The story was a good one and really caught me from the start. However, the ending was a bit disappointing. I wanted a bit more unraveling at end.

Compelling story
