About this listen

A tragic accident or something more sinister? A woman’s buried memories put her life at risk in a novel of shattering psychological suspense by New York Times bestselling author Mary Burton.

Lane McCord wakes up in a hospital having survived a near-fatal fall at a North Carolina beach cottage. Her boyfriend, Kyle, wasn’t so lucky. A senseless tragedy on their first romantic getaway. All Lane remembers is lying at the bottom of the stairs in Kyle’s pooling blood.

Confused and grieving, Lane plans to return to the cottage, collect her personal belongings, and get out. Until a winter rainstorm leaves her stranded and vulnerable, but not alone. A concerned neighbor, who claims he heard a violent argument before the accident, has come out of the storm. So has a suspicious detective on the trail of a missing woman, whose diary deepens the mystery—and raises more questions that fill Lane with dread.

How well did she know Kyle? How well does she know herself? What really happened at the cottage on the beach? And when the answers come, who can Lane trust to get out of this waking nightmare alive?

Twisty Twister

Very twisty mystery. Can always count on Mary Burton story to keep entertained. Erin Bennett did a great job bringing all the characters to life.

I was surprised how quickly I finished this book, it definitely kept my attention. Multiple well developed characters that made me question everyone throughout the twists and turns. Very strong ending.

Excellent mystery.

Really enjoyed the twists in the story, enjoyed the split personality angle, wasn’t expecting who the killers were.

Pretty good who-did-it

There’s a lot of characters that may potentially be involved in the death so it adds layers to the story, but that also made it difficult to keep track of. The story gets really confusing towards the end. I hung in there and it concluded how I thought it would. Aside from it being confusing at times, I didn’t hate the writing style. Narration was alright.

It's not easy to keep me guessing

I loved this book. I don't write reviews but I just finished this book and had to leave one.
so far removed from a formula mystery, standard story, ones that are somewhat easy to figure out the end.
This book has quite a few "I didn't see that coming" and the ending was brilliant. I absolutely did NOT see that coming.
Well written, performance was better than most I listen to.
There is a lot going on in this book. If you listen to books like I do, ( I do because I have to be doing things all the time) this book will need you to really pay attention. The author wove together the many threads of this story very well.
This was the first book in quite a while that I couldn't stop listening to. It kept me invested in the characters, the story line, and I loved all the twists and turns tat kept me guessing.

House beyond the Dunes

I enjoyed the story and narration. I did wonder why Lane felt compelled to go back to the scene of trauma.
The story kept me in suspense.
