THE DETAILS ❐ MYSTERY/THRILLER/SUSPENSE ❐ MISSING CHILD/FOUND CHILD❐ WHAT THE FUCKERY... ❐ TOLD FROM ONE POV ❐ LENGTH OF AUDIO ➯ 9 HOURS, 4 MINUTES ❐ I LISTENED ON LIBBY



Some have said that they think this goes somewhere that is not to be believed...but I was totally there for it.  The author took a well-known kidnapped-child-returns-home...is it really them or not, trope...and turns it into something that's unpredictable, mostly believable and twisted AF.  

Every time, you think you know where it's going...you really don't.  I like a mystery where the clues are there for you to decipher along the way but there's always something else you didn't quite see or figure out.

I really like Brittany Pressley as a narrator, I've read reviews where people don't really care for her voice, but for me personally, she never disappoints.
