Publisher's summary

From the bestselling author of Neighborly comes a twisty novel of psychological suspense about the lies three women tell to survive, and the ones they’d kill to keep hidden.

Everyone loves therapist Michael Baylor. He’s handsome. He’s respected. And he’s provided a safe place for his female patients. Now he’s dead, and a detective is casting a tight net for the murderer - because the good doctor may have done some very bad things with the women who trusted him. That’s if their stories check out.

There’s Lucinda, who struggled to process her childhood trauma even as she was falling in love with Dr. Baylor. Greer, an accomplished career woman who was torn by her sudden desire to have children, so she went to Dr. Baylor for help but may have gotten more than she bargained for. And then there’s Flora, a beautiful former patient who’d been on intimate terms with the man she called Dr. Michael for two years. Some might even say she was obsessed with him.

Three women caught in a tangled web of lies and secrets. And each with a motive for murder. With so much at stake, can any of them be trusted to tell the truth?

Story dragged on

I love a good suspenseful story. So I knew in the beginning the doctor died and was excited to see how and why. Throughout the pages though, the story line of the clients dragged on and on.

There was one client that I felt was guilty but the plot twist was a very short description on what happened for the book to be about the loves of the client. The last chapter was confusing to me as well.

Great read

At times the shrill and anxious voices of the characters was bothersome, but they were simply playing their roles well. Great ending.

I enjoyed the story until...

I really enjoyed the story. The narration was a little disconcerting at times because of the various characters and the story from their point of views. The end was such a disappointment! After investing all that time in listening, the ending was a letdown. Maybe I misunderstood it, but the ending reminded me of the Dallas episode when Bobby Ewing is killed. When the new season starts, he's in the shower and the whole previous episode was just Pam Ewing's dream.

I hate when there’s a good story with

I hate when there’s a good story with a terrible narrator. I can’t tell if one of the actresses
Is acting, but she has the most annoying accent and semi lisp. It’s like she’s faking a euro accent. Not sure if I can finish this thing.

Great story but narrative sometimes uncomfortable

Good twist for a psychological thriller, just not my kind of story. Great buildup of characters, you can almost picture them (if you don't think too hard on the voices.)

Major Plot Twist

This was the first audiobook ive heard where everyone got their own actor, which was appreciated. As to the story, you spend a lot of time feeling one way, to have your world rocked. The book definitely keeps you on your toes!

ok listen

Flora's voice drove me crazy. Maybe because she was super annoying. Story was ok. The last chapter was an eye opener.
