Nursing the faded scars of a long-held trauma, Emily Page and her husband, awaiting the arrival of their first child, move from New York City to the uber-wealthy Clairmont, Texas. There, Emily is swept into a world of opulent privilege and shifting loyalties. But the secrets she keeps follow her south, and with them comes the danger that her new friends can't protect her from, and her new enemies will not hesitate to use to destroy her once and for all.

I didn’t enjoy this book because of too many characters and redundant throughout. Exhausted repetitive listening.

Review of Lie Still

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I have read most of the rest of Julia Heaberlin's books and greatly enjoyed them all (Paper Ghosts and We Are All the Same in the Dark are particular favorites). I realize this one was written earlier in her career, and she had not yet developed into the masterful suspense writer she's become. While this one was not my favorite, it's still worth reading. I just wouldn't start with it if you're not familiar with her work.

I also found the narrator's voice grating and her performance melodramatic.

Not Her Best but Worth Reading

This was a good novel. The narrator was solid all the way through, giving voice to several different characters in different accents. The story had several components which the author was able to connect solidly. At times, I felt that the author provided unnecessary details which were mundane. However, overall, I think it's a solid audiobook!

I’ve read all but one of Ms Heaberlin’s books this year (2023) I love all of her characters, each is fleshed out to enhance the twists and turn’s that make her books a delight to read. She has a gift and I’m here to enjoy every book she writes.

I love this author

It was interesting and we'll written in parts. I liked Letty a lot, but many of the characters weren't very believable. The narrator, however, was fantastic.

Disappointing

This story plot felt overly contrived and I had little to no feelings for the characters. I plowed through to the end but often half listening. The narrator’s voice has very little change in cadence or tone and so not easy to listen to. I’m glad I can move on to something else.

Narrator human or electronic?

Completely unable to predict the end of this one - another masterpiece by Heaberlin.
Hard to anticipate where she'll go next. This book has a dark premise that sneaks up on you at every turn. Couldn't stop listening.

Heaberlin keeps you guessing

Definitely a neat book. My first from this author. Enjoyed the characters, especially Letty. Little bit southern sorority and little bit mystery.

very entertaining!

I have listened to several books by Julia and have not been disappointed by any. This author maintains a flow that keeps you connected to the plot without repeating each episode which I find annoying. And Rebecca Gibel's narration is so good giving each character a flawless representation. I look forward to more!!

Julia Heaberlin is a MASTER of Mystery

One or two subplots too many. The goal of having several suspects was made but not necessary.

A little too much going on
