About this listen

From the bestselling author of Pretty Girls Dancing comes a shattering serial-killer thriller about revenge, deliverance, and survival.

Cady Maddix survived a brutal upbringing - emotionally scarred but hardened - with a will for self-preservation. Hunting fugitives has given her life purpose and control. But when the Deputy US Marshal returns home to care for her Alzheimer’s-stricken mother, a new case stirs old memories.

Child killer Samuel Aldeen has broken out of a nearby facility for the criminally insane, and the authorities believe he was aided by accomplices, both inside and out. Enlisted to track him down, Cady follows an unexpected lead. Her name is Eryn Pullman, a young woman recently released from a neighboring psychiatric facility, a mentally fragile survivor of childhood abuse, and Aldeen’s next designated victim.

To save Eryn’s life, Cady must work fast to uncover the unimaginable link between predator and prey - even as it pulls her into the cold dark places of her own past.

Well Done!!!!

I found this book very absorbing. This is a story of two very dysfunctional families and the secrets they have kept.
The publisher's summary is more than adequate and gives enough information. There are so many likable characters in this story and the few not very likable are enough to make this very taught and suspenseful. The main antagonist really has his head screwed on backwards. This is told from multiple points of view and then and now time frames. The progression in character development is great. The ending is a real treat and totally unexpected.
If you have kindle unlimited this book is FREE to borrow with the kindle edition.
The narration by Christina Traister and Andrew Eiden is excellent. They worked really well together.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Just okay. Annoying female narrator

The story was okay. It may be that the female narrator was very annoying and hard to get past. She's over dramatic, over emphasizes and pronounces words while adding no excitement to the story. The male narrator was good so it's too bad the review reflects on him too.

Kylie Brant is becoming a favorite!

Really, this is the second book I've listened to lately by her and both were just fantastic. Now this one has a TON of characters but it was fine. It took me a bit to know who was who and who did what. I really found myself immersed into this story. The plot was thick and you won't know what is really happening.

The narrators were top notch! Seriously, I think they could have improved an awful book! Not the case here but they were that good! As soon as I finish this review I'm going strait to Andrew Eiden's narrator page to see what else he has narrated because his voices/tones are probably my new favorite male narrator! You won't be able but to sit back and enjoy!

Modern detective thriller!

Author Kylie Brant has moved from her long history of writing romance novels to writing in the mystery/thriller genre. This is the first novel of hers I have read but it will not be the last. In COLD DARK PLACES protagonist and Deputy US Marshall Cady Maddix has real issues in her past including killing a man when she was a child. She is now an experienced law enforcement officer.

This is an outstanding novel with excellent narration.

Author has potential

The book is well written but I felt the author tried to hard to be surprising making the book confusing but would definitely consider reading another book by this author as many parts were intriguing

Cold Dark Places

The wrote an interesting novel that will hold your attention and ask for more. My only issue is Enrin was not mad at her uncle's wife for letting Erin take the fall for murdering her mother.
