About this listen

A dying convict's last request thrusts small-town newspaperman Jefferson Morgan into a deadly maelstrom as he explores a 50-year-old case of child murder - a wound his town still isn't ready to scrape open. Under the heaviest deadline of his life, and amid threats from unexpected foes, Morgan must struggle with his own conscience to tell a story no matter the consequences, dig deep into the town's past, and unveil a killer who's managed to remain hidden in plain sight for almost 50 years.

I was a bit put out by the narrator at first; however, he ended up growing on me as the story progressed.

The story slogged a bit in some parts but I do believe it intentionally built up the tension.

I would (and have) recommended this to others!

Not as good as Deaf Row but I thoroughly enjoyed it

A bit slow but quite compelling

Wow! The killer was a real surprise. A great story. Well written with an interesting twist. This book kept me interested.

I Never Would Have Guessed
