What our readers think
Readers find this title to be a good solid listen with well-developed characters. While some found it slow and confusing at times, others enjoyed the great detective story and the suspenseful plot. The shifting in time was a bit confusing for some, but the characters have potential to grow. Overall, it is a good thriller and suspense novel that would make a good movie. The narrator did a great job and the book is well-written. Recommended for fans of the genre.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Slow , the story never became a good mystery or hooked you in. I listen to the end because I need a book but I stopped several times to take a break.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Not the best of serial killer/crime/thrillers....but it was a good solid listen. Being a person who grew up in the Seatle Tacoma area, I wish the Olsen would have used real town and city names for the drama scenes instead of made up fictional ones.
3.5 stars - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It was a bit confusing at times with the the shifting in time from 20 years ago to today but the characters have potential to grow. I will continue with this series and see where it goes.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good thriller and suspense novel. Good page turner and entertainer
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Really good book with well developed characters. Would make a good movie!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I was really hopeful for this one. I stuck it out till the end though. In the beginning there is a lot lf back in forth between present and 20 years ago and it takes till about the middle of the book for there to be context for it. It was well written but just plain.
