About this listen
The sequel to Bad Games, the number-one Kindle best seller.
In Bad Games, the Lamberts weren't safe at the family cabin. Now they aren't safe anywhere. Playtime is not over.
In Autumn 2008 the Lambert family headed to Western Pennsylvania for a weekend getaway to the family cabin. They visited hell instead.
The Fannelli brothers. Two psychopaths who believed themselves exceptional, put on this Earth for the soul purpose of tormenting others for their own amusement. To make people play their twisted games.
Except the Lamberts managed the impossible. They played the game and survived. Showed the Fannelli brothers that they'd messed with the wrong family.
However, the game is far from over. There are some new players in town. Players who appear to have close ties to the Fannelli brothers. Players who are taking things very personally - and promising results that are very deadly.
If you thought you'd glimpsed evil before, prepare to plummet headfirst into the abyss as author Jeff Menapace shows you a new level of fear and heart-stopping suspense.
Let the vengeful games begin.

She’s no longer the terrified teenager a rapt audience saw on television, emerging in handcuffs from the quiet suburban home the night her family was massacred.

The debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at other people's lives. Every day the same. Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She’s even started to feel like she knows them. Jess and Jason, she calls them. Their life - as she sees it - is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.

GREAT SEQUEL!
This book picks up from the the last book, Bad Games. It keeps you intrigued and is totally intense all the way through. It was so good that it was one that I could not put down and just wanted to keep on listening to until the end. The Narrator is great and makes the book/story so much better to listen too. Must read if you read Bad Games by Jeff Menapace. Great set!!!

This book NEEDS TO BE MADE INTO A MOVIE!!!
This story was put together perfectly!
I haven't read or listened to a book this good...one that I physically could NOT stop listening to....since Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl!
The Bad Games series is by far the best pchyscological thriller story I have had the pleasure of indulging in!!!!
I really would love to see this hit the big screen!!!
I also LOVE the narrators in this book!
In fact
I think it may even be safe to say
That just the narrators alone may have had a huge hand in turning this already amazingly flawless book into... superb perfection!!!👍🏼
I hope there's a book 4!!!!!
Or a movie 😉
