A picturesque town. A woman on the run. An undercover agent. The first riveting novel in Catherine Coulter’s #1 New York Times bestselling FBI Thriller series.

Sally Brainerd can’t remember what happened the night her father was murdered. Maybe she did it. Or maybe it was her poor, traumatized mother. Either way, the safest place for her is far away from Washington, D.C. But while her aunt’s home in The Cove should be a quiet refuge, Sally can’t shake the feeling that there’s something not quite right about the postcard perfect little town.

Despite his target’s checkered past and convenient memory loss, FBI Special Agent James Quinlan isn’t convinced she’s the killer—but maybe she knows who is. As he uses his cover to get close to Sally and unearth the memories her mind has hidden away, James can’t deny his connection to the troubled woman. But as their lies and passions intertwine, Sally and James soon learn they aren’t the only ones keeping deadly secrets in The Cove….

The reader made the various characters distinct. Story moved quickly without moving too fast or too slow.

Great storyline

A kidnapped daughter and a family that both ignored and conspired against her absence. A small town along the coast was the center of the action when the daughter showed up after escaping from the asylum she had been in for six months. No one would help her until a PI showed up. An exciting and well written novel. Recommended for anyone likes quirky mysteries with multiple twists and turns that keep the listener glued to the audible version. Five stars for a incredible read and listen.

Another hit by by Coulter.

The story is a slow build, but once it gets going it's engrossing. The narration left something to be desired.

Great Story, Mediocre Narration.

She reminds me of the voice of the woody woodpecker cartoons. I kept
Waiting for her to break out into that laugh that he does at the end of every episode. Unfortunately, I couldn't get into the story because the narration was so horrible. Wish I had read it instead.

The narrator is horrible!

Started out great. Good story line. But it almost seemed like a new writer took over mid way. It became whiny and not believable. Corny lines were abundant. I finished it just to see how far down the rabbit hole it would go.

So corny I finished it just to get a laugh

A MUST READ CATHERINE COULTER IS THE QUEEN
