Publisher's summary

Mirror, mirror on the wall …

Jealousy doesn’t exist in Darby Forester’s vocabulary. Until Caroline, an equally stunning woman, crashes Darby’s perfect fortieth birthday party and reduces her seemingly perfect husband into a horny adolescent in front of the well-wishers.

THINGS ARE ABOUT TO GET WORSE.

Shortly after the last guest leaves, Caroline calls Wyatt. Someone is trying to break into her house—where she’s alone and terrified.

Wyatt rides off to the rescue. Darby feels the first brush of fear. Her father was a serial adulterer, abusing her and her sickly mother. Infidelity is, for Darby, a game-changer. One Wyatt has always willingly agreed to.

A call from the ER changes everything.

Wyatt is fighting for his life after a brutal beating. Suspense mounts at the hospital when Darby finds Caroline rode in the ambulance with Wyatt. She is passing herself off as his sister.

The game of cat and mouse escalates.

Caroline baits Darby with innuendoes of Wyatt’s infidelity. Shortly after his hospital admission, he dies. Darby has no idea what Caroline wants. Or who she is. Or why Wyatt was attacked. A mysterious text sends her rushing to meet a stranger claiming to have the answers.

Body count mounts.

Before Darby gets answers that make sense, the stranger is dead. A day later, so is Caroline.

Arrogance. Spite. Payback. Emotionally exhausted and disillusioned, Darby hires a PI. The secrets he ferrets out point to a murder in her past. Can she dodge the payback?

***

That robotic presentation. It was awful and I kept listening for the mispronunciations instead of the story!

I did not like the PI being called a pie. And Al that blah blah blah and yada yada yada. I swear that once I heard it say that a word or phrase was too fast for human ears! I will never knowingly listen to to another ai narrated book!

SNOOZE!

I think this book could have been good, if I were able to pay attention long enough!
I can't fairly rate the actual story because I only got through a few chapters. I could NOT keep my focus on the book because of how monotone the narration was.
When a real person is reading, they change their voices for characters. They read with with passion to show the characters emotions.
Why are we not having real ppl narrarate stories about humans?
Is this just another way for big corporations to eliminate jobs?

Twisted

Deception and horror sums up this domestic thriller told in irritating virtual voice. An ingenious plot

Worst Audiobook Ever

Don’t waste your time with this book. Not only is it horribly written but the virtual voice that reads the story is even worse. I truly hope the virtual voice is not the future of audiobooks because if it is, I will no longer be a fan.
