About this listen

John Connolly's originality and talent for storytelling have quickly made him one of today's preeminent thriller writers. Now, in The Unquiet, private detective Charlie Parker returns to untangle a horrifying story of betrayal, unclean desires, and murder; a story of never-ending evil whose conclusion is not yet written.

Daniel Clay, a once-respected psychiatrist, has gone missing. His daughter insists that he killed himself after allegations surfaced that he had betrayed his patients to foul and evil men, but when a killer obsessed with uncovering the truth behind his own daughter's disappearance comes seeking revenge, long-forgotten secrets begin to emerge. Hired by Dr. Clay's daughter to protect her from the predator on the loose, tortured and ingenious private detective Charlie Parker finds himself trapped between those who want the truth to be revealed and those who will go to any length to keep it hidden.

John Connolly masterfully intertwines secret lives and secret sins with the violence that so often lies beneath the surface of the honeycomb world in this gripping story. Fast-paced, hypnotic, and elegantly written, The Unquiet is John Connolly at his chilling best.

Critic reviews

"Connolly is a master of suggestion, creating mood and suspense with ease, and unflinchingly presents a hard-eyed look at the horrors that can lurk in quiet, rustic settings." (Publishers Weekly)

Love the Charlie Parker Series

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. I find the word use by Connolly to be very evocative and entertaining. Plus, I really like the mix of mystery and other he infuses in his stories.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

For the most part. I do find it hard to be totally unbiased as John Connolly is my favorite author and I CAN'T wait for the next book...every book. :-)

What about Jay O. Sanders’s performance did you like?

He has a great voice and does the different accents and characters in a believable way.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
