I liked the story but did not care for the narrator on this one. I was very impressed with Whitney's actions that helped her escape. I also knew that Lillian was a bad egg right from the start. Glad to see she got what was coming to her. Definite thumbs up.

I liked this second novel in the series much more than the first. There wasn't nearly as much "he said, she responded" in the dialogue. Although this book would have been better with a female and male narrator. The narrator was a little slow in some parts, but not enough to take much away from the story. I liked finding out who the killer was and found it to be a good twist. The story even had likable characters and unlikable characters. I really disliked "The Director", but since he's a serial killer I should be expected to dislike him. I really didn't like the money grubbing Lillian either. It's a shame that character wasn't a target for The Director. Good plot and mystery story.

Much better than the 1st in the series

I have to admit this is my 1st listen by author and enjoyed it. It does have some horrific scenes and a surprise of who the killer was. My favorite characters were Uncle Rocky and Whitney. It is not for the faint of heart. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Thank you

Audiobook Review -
For the second book in Kristen Middleton's Summit Lake Thriller series we have Hear Them Scream. I actually thought this book and the evildoer were very unique. Even though we have a completely different story than the first in this series, the author did a good job weaving the same characters from the town into the second story and keeping them to their already established rolls without it going too far like in romance genre books.
In Hear Them Scream we have a killer that has dubbed himself "The Director" and picks women up to have them star in his own remakes of classic horror movies but unlike the originals that he deems has bad acting, here he will reenact the most memorable horror scenes in real life and sell the remakes online as "more authentic"; which they actually are. When he's done with the "movie", he dumps the body and then onto the next but when one of the missing girls has a twin sister who won't stop until she finds out what happens, everyone is placed in danger when she comes to town.
What I love about the Summit Lake Thriller series is that they feature everyday strong women who never give up but use their brains to figure out how to solve the crime or situation. The individual women featured never just roll over and take it or wait for someone else to solve the crime. They think their way out of each situation to survive.
That being said, what brought this one down for me was the narrator. The story is told from multiple POV's. Even though he did a great job going in and out of different characters and changing his voice, when it came to the women though, he used his normal male voice sometimes for a woman and therefore it was hard to tell which character was taking the stage. For example, he would use his normal male voice for a female narration while in her head but then raise his voice when she was actually speaking to someone. It just became very confusing. Usually if a female character is in her head or speaking out loud, it's the same octave or voice. It ultimately kept taking me out of the story until I could figure out who was talking and then he's say something like "she or her" or even use the characters name and I'd be like oh ok it's this character but it was super disconcerting.

Story was great, narrator was confusing

A serial killer is obsessed with recreating horror movies and hearing his victims scream. A girl does whatever it takes to find out what happened to her sister.
 
The story was fascinatingly dark. I liked hearing the perspectives of the good and bad sides. Kristen has a way of describing the scenes and characters so vividly you can actually see the story playing out while listening to it. Very well written.
 
Chase narrated well with good suspense and energy in his performance.
 
I recommend this book and I look forward to hearing more in this series.

Do not waste your money on this, purchase it and read it yourself. This book is a good book, but one of the most terribly preformed books I have ever heard and I listen to ALOT of books. The Sherriff and Rocky sound like cartoon BEARS! Its so ridiculous! I did not finish it!!

Another HORRIBLY narrated book!!

When her sister is found murdered Whitney takes it upon herself to try to find her killer. There seemed to be a lot going on in this book that sis not need to be in the story. A lot of padding and having the main character do things that really did not move the story along. The police are made out to be idiots and not able to do their job and had characters that were introduced only to really do nothing. Whitney comes off as smart at times yet at others she acts as if she has no clue what so ever. I had a hard time getting into this story and found the main characters hard to like. I found it hard to listen to the narration. I was not fond of the voices that narrator Chase Johnson uses for these characters and the emotions were not there for me.
