About this listen

Connor Ryman thought he had it all--a successful career as a mystery novelist, a condo with stunning views of Seattle's Lake Union, a supportive and long-term partner, Steve, and a loving daughter, Miranda, who was following in her father's creative footsteps.

It all went bad when Steve left the family suddenly. Jilted and heartbroken, Connor begins to search for love online. So long off the market, he enlists his daughter's help in crafting a dating profile.

His prayers are answered when Trey Goodall, smart and handsome, answers his ad. He's witty, urbane, a wealthy attorney, and his sex appeal is off the charts. But he's a liar, a monster under a pretty mask. Miranda sees through the red flags and senses something very wrong beneath the façade.

Can she convince her father to save himself before it's too late? Or will Trey, a master manipulator with a very tainted history, play upon Connor's innocence to ensnare him in a web of deceit, intrigue, and ultimately, murder?

A Dark Cautionary Tale

I like a darker, suspenseful story with a romantic tinge, like ‘Toxic’. This book is a little different for me in that the reader experiences part of the story from the ‘bad guy’s’ POV, and that he is part of the main couple of the story. Even with this knowledge, Rick R Reed builds the tension until the climactic ending. The story is told through multiple characters’ POVs for a richer, more fulsome story.

Paul Will delivers a very good narrative performance. With his distinct voices, he immerses the listener into the story completely.

This review reflects my voluntary and honest views about the book. I requested it as an ARC.

Recommended.

Thrilling and engaging

Holy moly! What a listen! First off this storyline is so thrilling! I listened way past my normal time so that I could finish this audiobook. Not only the story is engaging but so is the narrator. He was fantastic! I haven’t listen to a book so fraught with terror!

Nice listen!

Enjoyed this new thriller from Rick Reed! It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole way through! Great to listen to on a road trip! New narrator for me, he did a nice jib.

Dark Thriller

This is a dark thriller with a good story. I found myself sucked in from the start. I just could not stop listening especially when you add in the great narration. Please pay attention to trigger warnings.

I received an ARC and this is my unbiased opinion
