She thought he’d come to save her. She was wrong.

Deborah Jenkins pulls her coat around her as she sets out on her short walk home in the pouring rain. But she never makes it home that night. And she is never seen again....

Four years later, an abandoned baby girl is found wrapped in dirty rags on a doorstep. An anonymous phone call urges the police to run a DNA test on the baby. But nobody is prepared for the results.

The newborn belongs to Deborah. She’s still alive.

If you love Lisa Gardner, Patricia Gibney and Robert Bryndza, you’ll love this jaw-dropping new crime thriller from Carla Kovach. The Next Girl will keep you guessing until the very last second.

Mild Spoilers... Not sure I get all of the four and five star reviews for this one. It’s a pretty standard fare paint by numbers thriller. In fact, I thought maybe I’d read the wrong book because neither the title or tagline make any sense with what actually happens in this book. And it says there’s a “heart stopping twist” but unless I missed something, the big reveal is fairly dull.

Title? Tagline? Twist?

This story had so much potential but it was written as if the author was on a timer and spent most of their time building the story up.

Anticlimactic

This was a really well written book. It took me a minute to get into it and embrace the characters, but I think that just shows good character development. I would have liked a little more insight into the day to day existence of Debbie while she was missing, but the point was clearly made. I just couldn't stand the narration for the little boy - it was always so whiny, shrill, spoiled, entitled. It could have been more gentle, like a small boy would be at times. But it was really good!

Once I got into it, I loved it!

Great story! Kept my attention and I couldn’t wait to find out what happens next. Little disappointed in the epilogue, they kind of left you hanging with what happens to the victim and family. Still highly recommend. Narrator was perfect. Will be listening to the whole series.

Loved it!

This was a memorable listen. So many books/audios are forgotten or left behind, but this author, in perfect harmony, keeps the story moving and holds your attention all the way through. “The Narrator” FABULOUS. Can’t wait for the their next audio.

Great listen!!
