Publisher's summary

The only way

A home provides more than comfort and shelter. It stores memories...and hides secrets. Divorcee Caitlin Stoller and her children recently moved into a charming old Tudor-style house in the coastal town of Echo, Washington. The place was a bargain, but as weeks pass, Caitlin starts receiving messages - first friendly, then unsettling, hinting at the property's dark past.

You'll stay alive

Caitlin's teenage daughter, Lindsay, isn't fitting in at school. To make matters worse, there are stories about local high school students who've disappeared without a trace - all star athletes, like Lindsay. Then there are the rumors that their new home is cursed. Caitlin doesn't want to believe the whispers, but something strange is going on. Personal items go missing, and there are too many accidents....

Is if he never finds you

The Watcher knows how to get inside the Stollers' home - and inside their heads. The rumors are true, but the full horror is even worse. There's no escaping the nightmare that started here long ago, and no place to hide from a killer who knows exactly how this story will end....

The improbable idea of keeping kids captive for 6 months.

I thought the story was good with the ability of the kids to stay sane.

Another fun O’Brien!

This is my second Kevin O’Brien book and it was a fun listen. It was fairly predictable in some cases but also has nice twists and suspense. I will agree with other comments that the narrator took adjustment time…you have to embrace the corniness of the suspect’s CAMPY/terrible voice and push thru it. It was worth staying on to end.

My favorite O’Brien Novel so far!

This was so different and not at all what I expected. I loved the characters and even the villains in all their freaky glory 😂 nothing beats a creepy house!!

Narrator

Book would have been much better with another narrator. Several voices sounded like a cartoon

the story was decent but the narrator was horrible


I enjoyed the story. The narrator tried too hard to get in character. I've listened to 4 books by this author so far and this narrator was the worst. I almost didn't finish the book.

Enjoyed the surprises!

Not predictable. When I thought I knew what was going to happen next, I was pleasantly surprised. Fun crime mystery story!

So realistic

There were so many twists that I couldn’t put it down. I wanted to find out who was the culprit or culprits. Great story.

Good, but a bit tedious

I know O’Brien likes to go into crazy detail in his work, but this goes a bit over the top for me. His thrillers usually keep me interested from start to finish, but this one seemed to drag on and on. Still worth reading/listening, though.

The narrator made a great book even better!

LOVED IT! Listen to this book, you will not regret it.

Once again Kevin O'Brien has done it. He is a very talented author. The story is unpredictable, which I love, it sucks when you can guess everything that will happen in a book. This book was scary, dark, sad, heart wrenching and also funny, just because the narrator is so talented and emphasizes character's voices so uniquely. This is a definite listen for sure, you will not be disappointed.
