About this listen
Running and hiding won’t save you because The Darkness lives within … and it will never stop hunting you.
Amber and her four best friends are about to reach their teenage years when the unthinkable happens; one of her friends, Kieran, is killed in a freak accident.
Twenty years later, Amber no longer speaks to her friends and is still haunted by that day in the form of severe psychological issues, including sleep paralysis, insomnia and hallucinations of a terrifying entity she calls The Creature. But it isn’t just in her head; it is real.
Unbeknown to Amber, her former friends have also been suffering from their own psychological nightmares, each trapped and twisted into people they no longer recognise. Then a piece of evidence is found from that day and Amber and her former friends are forced to relive the events leading up to Kieran's death, learning truths along the way that they would rather not know about themselves.
Can they work together to rid themselves of their demons and find out what really happened to Kieran all those years ago?
The Darkness Within Ourselves is the first book in "The Darkness Series", a gripping psychological thriller series that is guaranteed to keep you awake at night. If you like fast-paced thrillers with dark twists and themes of mental health then you’ll love this terrifying story of psychological disorders by author Jessica Huntley.
** Winner of the Editor's Choice Award in the BookShelf Fiction Awards 2023**
TRIGGER WARNINGS: Mental health issues (severe depression, agoraphobia, suicide), loss of a child (stillbirth), domestic violence, death.

Eerie portraits hang like shrines outside homes. But nobody-including the local sheriff-seems to care.

This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Great Debut !
The Darkness Within Ourselves is a gripping, addictive psychological thriller that hooked me straight from the start. This book was much deeper than I expected, but wow it was so well done ! Jessica has a way with words that is just so beautiful even in the darkest themes. As much as this is thrilling it was also emotional and just gut wrenching.
The darkness was so creepy, chilling and eerie. There was always a sense of lurking. I loved how it took on multiple forms for each character, I truly thought that was a super original and creative aspect ! The mental health aspect was amazingly well done, Jessica just hit the spot with this book. It was nicely paced, the suspense constantly building, the intrigue never letting up which just made for a great read.
The ending wraps up nicely with a somewhat of a cliffhanger. I'm highly looking forward to the sequel, I'm jumping in right away. I think this book is highly underrated and deserves more hype !
🎧 The narration by Candace Fitzgerald was so good. She had the perfect tone, she set the chills and eeriness to the scenes. The emotions were felt in her voice. I loved how creepy her voice was when she was portraying the darkness. Great listen!
✨️Thank you to @jessicahuntley for my gifted audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

Great Audio !!!
This book was so good. Can what we do as kids effect us as we become adults? Well it certainly did a group of best friends. And not in a good way. The narrator was superb and the story was well organized and very suspenseful. Hope to listen to more from this author.

Dark and fantastic!
The Darkness Within Ourselves by Jessica Huntley
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is a fantastic psychological thriller! I was completely sucked in from the beginning!
The story has an interesting plot line with lots of intensity and thrills! Four childhood friends are traumatized in different ways when one of their friends is killed. As they get older, they suffer with their own torment and psychological horrors from this awful day.
The old friends come back together several years later to see if they are able to free themselves of the horrors that this tragic day created?
The story is very emotional, but also filled with secrets and suspense! The book is very well written and there’s good character development.
I listened to the audio version and it was great! The narrator was excellent!
This is book 1 in the Darkness Series. I can’t wait to dive into book 2, The Darkness That Binds us and book 3, The Darkness That Came before.
*An excellent read!*

An enjoyable, unique read, 4 1/2 stars
The Darkness Within Ourselves: A spine-tingling psychological thriller that explores just how dark your mind can go … (The Darkness Series Book 1), my first read from author Jessica Huntley. A dark 360 page read that was hard to put down. “I received a free Kindle copy of The Darkness That Binds Us: A dark and twisted psychological thriller sequel to "The Darkness Within Ourselves" (The Darkness Series Book 2) and wanted to read this book first so I went and got an Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. I look forward to reading more from this author. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Innocence intricately shattered
Received as an audio review copy from Story Origin, this an honest review. Narrated beautifully by Candance Fitzgerald, The Darkness Within Ourselves is one of those riveting, emotional stories that gets beneath your skin because once you're done reading or listening to this harrowing tale... you won't be able to forget it. It was suppose to a glorious summer Amber and her friends that could bask in; enjoying each other's company and decides to play the game I Spy but with a haunting twists that alters their lives. With 20 years on since that dark time, what happened to Kieran Jones has destroyed the once group of friends that has left each person physically and mentally shattered; and when a piece of evidence that could re-open Kieran's case; these now strangers are forced to face the truth if they wanted to finally have some peace that's been stolen from them because they couldn't speak the truth when they should have 20 years before. And take on fiery consequences that came with it.
Highly recommended.

Great narrator
I really enjoyed the narrator choice. She did a great job. Without spoiling, there's a few things that just don't quite make sense to me and tripped me up, taking me out of the experience of the story.
I received a listener code. This review is honest and voluntary.
