One of the twists I saw coming from miles away - the other I did not. But there were a lot of plot holes in this story to me. Glad it was free!

I love a good audio book that I can listen to while I complete tasks.

I am a huge Wendy Walker fan, and after reading 5 out of 21 books, I decided to give this novella, which follows Dr. Forrester, from All Is Not Forgetten, as he helps Gabby try and recall her memories from an attack. Wendy Walker always does a great job with drawing the reader in and having them think they know what is going to happen and then throw in a twist. This quick listen does just that.

I only gave it 4 stats because I do wish that it was a longer story that could have touched on more of Dr. Forrester

⭐️⭐️⭐️
A bit heavy on the “psych”. I know this can happen in a Wendy Walker book. But for me, this was all psych not much else.

this is a satire of the genre, right? because if not, wtf was this book?!

the plot, dialogues and overall narrative felt like it was either mocking itself or taking the whole "mystery" too seriously. really weird book, glad it was free with audible plus.

two stars only for the performance.

A pretty wooden delivery by the narrator that sometimes caused my mind to wander and left me feeling lost at times. My advice would be to skip this and listen to Shutter Island instead.

Poorly written and poorly narrated.

This reads like a bored housewife’s attempt at writing a thriller without having any skills.

The story is cliché the narration is slow and boring making a terrible book longer.

The story is so badly written I’d rather watch a train wreck than see what comes next here.
