Publisher Description
A suicide prevention hotline volunteer answers a call that turns her world upside down in this edge-of-your-seat audio original thriller by the bestselling author of The Perfect Child and The Best of Friends, performed by A.J. Cook (Criminal Minds) and Tessa Albertson (Younger).
Felicia, a single mother and lawyer by day, volunteers at a local crisis center to give back to her tightknit community in a small Wisconsin town. One night, she answers a horrifying call: through tears, a frantic teenage girl tells her that she was a victim of sexual assault at a local house party.
Felicia is shocked, and breaking protocol, she begins communicating with the girl on her own, determined to keep her safe and hold her assailants accountable. But as she gets closer and closer to the truth, she can’t shake the feeling that she and the girl are connected by more than the phone call. As the girl shares more details, Felicia begins to think the unthinkable—someone close to her may be involved in this heinous crime.
As Felicia earns the girl’s trust and more facts emerge about the incident, she faces a gut-wrenching battle between her protective instincts and the moral responsibility to do what’s right. This taut thriller is the perfect listen for fans of The Push, Wrong Place Wrong Time, and We Need to Talk About Kevin.
Customer Reviews
Engaging but predictable
I listened to this quick book all in one day, so it certainly deserves credit for being engaging and entertaining! However, I found it to be super predictable and lacking the shocking twist that’s characteristic of most books in the thriller genre. I also wish we received some more character development on the other perpetrators. This book still kept me engaged until the very end, but wasn’t one of my favorites.
Good Short thriller….
that’s doesn’t drag on and keeps you engaged up till the end.
Loved!!!!!
My Review:
Wow, wow and more wow!!!!! This one really proved why this author is my favorite of all time. She took a very hard subject and made it into a wonderful master piece using a soft delicate touch only she has. Also, let me say this was one of my top reads ever. This book will be burned inside me for the rest of my life. I have a son the same exact age and this one really resonated with me in so many ways. In more ways than I can count on both my hands combined. I don’t want to say too much and I want you to make up your own mind about this one. So I’m not going say anything more but I will say that if I could give it more hearts I would and I can’t wait for this authors next book.
In conclusion, the plot, the characters and all the twists in this book made this book an enjoyable read. I would definitely recommend it and happily give it 5 Hearts❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
