About this listen

Two women. An office filled with secrets. One terrible crime that can't be taken back.

Dawn Schiff is strange.

At least, everyone thinks so at Vixed, the nutritional supplement company where Dawn works as an accountant. She never says the right thing. She has no friends. And she is always at her desk at precisely 8:45 a.m.

So when Dawn doesn't show up to the office one morning, her coworker Natalie Farrell―beautiful, popular, top sales rep five years running―is surprised. Then she receives an unsettling, anonymous phone call that changes everything…

It turns out Dawn wasn't just an awkward outsider―she was being targeted by someone close. And now Natalie is irrevocably tied to Dawn as she finds herself caught in a twisted game of cat and mouse that leaves her wondering: who's the real victim? But one thing is incredibly clear: somebody hated Dawn Schiff.

Enough to kill.

The Coworker is a tense, captivating thriller from New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden that explores the dark ways the past can echo through the present―with deadly consequences.

Save your credit

The writing is ok but the story is so contrived and ridiculous. Until I got used to it and put it into context with the character, the narration of Dawn made me want to gag or smash my phone. The good news is that I was able to multitask without fear of missing part of the story.

It was good (possible spoilers)

I really did enjoy the book. It was predictable at time, but the real twist was what was revealed about Natalies true self towards the end. Through out the book I knew she was vain, but I didn’t know the extent. Overall an enjoyable read, it got boring at times , but my still had my jaw dripping.

Slow, but decent twist

Email titles were annoying, but narrator did well with tone overall. Story slow for first half, but got better. For all the hype this book gets I'd recommend it, but wonder if I'd give it 5 stars had I read verses listening to it.

Angsty & So Very Good

I listen to a new audio almost everyday and mysteries are my go to. I’ve listened to all of Freida’s books which are unique and incredibly written. I would not describe this one as suspenseful rather completely angsty. The twist more than halfway through is epic. Never would have thought of that but it’s so perfect. Freida’s writing as always is incredible and seamlessly flows from past to present. Character development is outstanding. Portraying Dawn’s quirks rather than labeling her on the spectrum added depth to her character. Listened nonstop thoroughly enjoyed it!

Narration was excellent. Alyson Krawchuk nailed everything about Dawn and Natalie!!

Not my favorite McFadden book

I've read nearly every McFadden book and this is not nearly as good as most of hers.

Frieda never disappoints!

I was looking forward to this new release. I loved it. She always has good twists. I can’t wait to see what Frieda writes for us next!!

A dastardly little tale

I thought I saw it coming but then ::whoop:: outta nowhere. This thriller made me feel so bad for the pre-quel victim and the PWDs that were the targets of the "bad guys" in this story.

What horrible people ;-)

Yes. This mystery/thriller is a solid YES!

I didn’t hate it

Definitely not my favorite of her books but I didn’t hate it. The book was good until it wasn’t.
