About this listen

 Lena Adams has spent her life struggling to escape her past. She has only unhappy memories of Reece, the small town that nearly destroyed her. She's made a new life for herself as a police detective in Heartsdale, a hundred miles away. But nothing could prepare her for the violence that explodes when she is forced to return. A vicious murder leaves a young woman incinerated beyond recognition. And Lena is the only suspect.

When Heartsdale Police Chief Jeffrey Tolliver, Lena's boss, receives word that his detective has been arrested, he has no choice but to go to Lena's aid, taking with him his wife, Medical Examiner Sara Linton. But soon after their arrival, a second victim is found. The town closes ranks. And both Jeffrey and Sara find themselves entangled in a horrifying underground world of bigotry and rage - a violent world which shocks even them, a world that puts their own lives in jeopardy.

Only Jeffrey and Sara can free Lena from the web of lies, betrayal, and brutality that has trapped her. But can they discover the truth before the killer strikes again?

This book skipped a bit and there was random patches of music that played.
It was ok, but these things were a little off putting.

This is the 6th book in the series, it’s always good to continue with the storyline & characters, really enjoying them all.
This book had times where it glitched & jumped a few seconds, multiple times, I don’t think it was my app as it did it in the same place every time no matter how many times I went back & forward… also they played background music at times 🙄🙄 not great! Music at the very end was almost inappropriate to what was happening but… all in all it was still a great addition to the series… hopefully no more music in the next 2 novels 🤞🏽🤞🏽

Good story some glitches in playback

Good story, alright performance
The audio glitches sometimes
And what the heck is with the music towards the end.

Not as good as the others
Still enjoyable though.

Mmmmm

I hate that it’s impossible to find an unabridged version of this book - sadly, the narration for this book was so off, and didn’t suit the story at all.
One of the saddest and most shocking moments of the story had strange ‘honky tonk’ style music playing over the top of it, this happened intermittently throughout as well.
The first book I haven’t enjoyed on Audible purely due to the performance having an impact on the story.

Just… weird?

This book was very short. The story line was hard to follow and it kept jumping. Really not impressed. Hopefully the next one is better

Great story
Spoken Narration was good but
Terrible music plays during reading at random times, it was really irritating

Great story- poor audio editing

Separate to the story, I disliked the music that came on in the background at times. Also parts of the audio skipped or repeated at times. I’ve never had this happen before with Audible.

A dark story

I want my money bAck. Half the story was missing. Random music playing. What a shame.

Narrator missed the mark

The story is great, Karin Slaughter is my favorite author, but the performance is this is off. Not only does music play at spots that makes no sense in the flow of the narration, but the narration glitches at least 5 times through the book. It will skip a few seconds, not long enough to lose what’s going on, but glitchy enough to be obvious that is skipped through a full sentence.
Don’t spend your money/credit on this recording.

Great story, but find another recording

The stupid music between chapters playing soo loudly you can barely hear the words, then the narrator repeating sentences. This is the worst audiobook I’ve ever listened to.

Love the book but omg the audio
