About this listen

Your husband was involved in a fatal accident.

One horrific sentence, delivered in an impersonal phone call, changes Celine Thompson’s life in a second. But when she’s asked to identify his body, what she discovers sends everything she thought she knew about her life crashing down.

This man is not my husband.

But who was the man who died driving Tate’s car? How did he have Tate’s possessions and, more importantly, why do they sport identical tattoos?

We’re going to find him.

When Tate doesn’t answer his phone or arrive home after the accident, Celine fears the worst. Still holding on to hope her husband may be alive, Celine is desperate to track Tate down and figure out what’s going on before it’s too late. The only problem? There are dark truths waiting to come out that are so atrocious she won’t ever be able to look away from them.

As she begins to put together the pieces of the mysterious day her husband went missing, it paints a picture of a man she never really knew. Is it possible Tate is still alive, or is she wasting her time searching for someone who will never be found? And if he is alive, how will they ever survive all that she’s unearthed?

With time running out, Celine must push the limits of the law and her safety to shed light on the secrets that have been hiding in the dark corners of their life together. In doing so, she may just uncover the final missing piece to the puzzle surrounding her husband’s fate.

Someone is lying.

Someone is missing.

Someone is guilty.

In this menacing, dark, and completely twisted domestic thriller, million-copy bestselling author Kiersten Modglin deep dives into a marriage riddled with lies, a couple with wicked secrets, and a woman who will stop at nothing to discover the truth about her husband’s disappearance. Forget everything you think you know…

Least favorite book I’ve listened to from this author

I had a hard time staying engaged, especially the chapters that were constantly flashing back to the boys childhood. I found most of it unnecessary. I wish it would’ve had less graphic details about their past. The rest of the chapters, about current day, were enjoyable..

Good story, ok narration

The story kept my interest despite the whiny tone of the narrator throughout the book. The male narrator did a good job.

Just an awesome book!

There were a couple of parts that were hard to listen to, but I think were necessary to understand the characters. Can’t wait to check out other titles from this author. Great narration too!

Twists and turns

I was caught up from the beginning and when the story got difficult I had to go on to the end.

Awesome storyline and the twists… WOW!

I really enjoyed this audiobook! The storyline was gripping with just the right amount of twists to keep me guessing the entire time—every time I thought I had it figured out, I was wrong. The narration overall was solid, though I found the main character Celine’s voice a bit slow for my taste. I bumped the speed up to 1.2x, and that made all the difference.

I’ve seen some reviews mentioning the sexual assault elements in the story, and I get the discomfort. But honestly, those moments are what reveal just how much of a monster the antagonist truly is—and why he absolutely deserved what came to him. If you’re into dark thrillers that mess with your head in the best way, this one’s a must-listen.

Mind blown!

I definitely want expecting that ending. Just when I thought I knew what was going on, I didn't! Very well written and couldn't stop once I got started.

Stupid ending……..

Stupid ending…….. I actually laughed out loud🙄🙄. The story started out intriguing but then you hate one of the characters so bad you almost want to quit listening to it. Then it goes wierd and has a ridiculous ending .
