About this listen

Autumn Sanderson goes by Lark now. No one in her new life can know who she was. No one from her old life can know where she is now.

Drowning in debt, she’s desperate to land a job - any job. When she finds herself at an interview for a mysterious company offering an exorbitant salary, she jumps at the chance. But things aren’t quite what they seem....

She soon learns about the company’s peculiar hiring process. Locked in a luxury cabin with five strangers who go only by their code names, she begins to question exactly what it is she signed up for.

The company, riddled with secrets and led by a cryptic boss known only as Mr. X, has strange rules and even stranger challenges for their candidates. After each day’s competition, the candidates gather around the dinner table to eat, drink, and spill their darkest secrets.

When Lark sees something she shouldn’t, she begins to ask questions, but she soon gets a warning to stop. It’s obvious she’s in danger, but why? What does the company want? How much can she trust the others in the house? Trapped in the remote house with no technology allowed, she realizes she must take drastic measures to find out the truth.

I could not finish it.

Despite the title, the book is not about a job. It is about a sick, unconventional and seemingly never-ending interview that no one in real life would submit to. The story was slow moving and I couldn’t finish it.

The narrator had vocal fry, and some of the characters sounded like cartoonish stereotypes.

I saw that the book and narrator received good reviews, but this one was not for me.

Decent listen

I wanted to love this book but the main character just bugged me. So indecisive and whinny. I had a hard time getting passed that. The end was the saving grace with a nice twist.

Good story, weird ending

The story was good overall, I even imagined it being an interesting movie, but the ending felt thrown together, as if the author was tired of it and just tossed a 25 minute ending together. I've noticed a lot of books have been this way lately... really a bummer. The narrator was great.

Mad/Happy/Furious/Stunned

This book had me have all those feelings. I wanted to stand with the main character but she totally ticked me off at numerous times. Then at other she was my rock! Very mixed book of characters and it kept me interested. Lee the ending hidden very well! Did not guess it until the last minute!

Enjoyed everything but the ending

Great & enjoyable until the ending ruins it. I went from thinking this was amazing to feeling like I'd wasted my time.

Poorly developed, awful and ending

This is a book about the worst job interview where the job offer is worse than the process itself, and not in a mystery thriller way. This is the after school special of “mystery thrillers”.
