Narrated by Tamsin Kennard
Every Mother's Nightmare is a fast paced twisty narrative which will leave you on the edge of your seat. I pretty much listened to this in one sitting. On an afternoon while the UK weather was too rainy to go out for a walk so it's a great read for cosy days or hot days on the beach. Our two MFC, a Mother and Daughter who are close but struggle with boundaries, letting go and freedom of a teen. Melissa takes a call from the police that her daughter has been found, disoriented, in just her underwear in a tent. Her daughter, Casey, can't remember a thing and luckily was found by a work colleague and friend called Spider. Her Brother, Dan has been searching for her all over the summer camp.
This book grabs you right from the first page and does not let go. It tackles the very real fear of letting our teens out into the big wide world and the dangers of alcohol, trusting the wrong people and also finding the people who will do what it takes to keep them safe. The pacing of this book is spot on which keeps you constantly engaged and has some great foreshadowing. And of course a few red herrings too. S E Lynes has a great writing style with interesting well built characters.
As always, Tasmin Kennard does a fantastic job in narrating this book, keeping the pacing, tension and the emotions throughout the book.
4.25 stars for Storygraph, 4 stars for Netgalley
