À propos de cet audio

An Amazon Charts bestseller.

Near an isolated mansion lies a beautiful garden.

In this garden grow luscious flowers, shady trees...and a collection of precious “butterflies” - young women who have been kidnapped and intricately tattooed to resemble their namesakes. Overseeing it all is the Gardener, a brutal, twisted man obsessed with capturing and preserving his lovely specimens.

When the garden is discovered, a survivor is brought in for questioning. FBI agents Victor Hanoverian and Brandon Eddison are tasked with piecing together one of the most stomach-churning cases of their careers. But the girl, known only as Maya, proves to be a puzzle herself.

As her story twists and turns, slowly shedding light on life in the Butterfly Garden, Maya reveals old grudges, new saviors, and horrific tales of a man who’d go to any length to hold beauty captive. But the more she shares, the more the agents have to wonder what she’s still hiding...

The world building in the story is just amazing, you really get to feel and understand the butterfly garden from the points of view that are shared to the reader. I will say that the twist is a little bit boring and I will say that the climax is a little dull. But the rest of the storytelling is able to forgive that, definitely recommend it if you are into world building and story detail.

Amazing world building

The narration was not good. The voices and intonation did not match the characters or the tone of the story.

interesting story but horrible narration

This was a great summer listen/read, an entertaining, unsophisticated serial killer thriller, with a delightfully silly premise. Yeah, there is stuff that doesn't make a lot of sense, it's not exactly intricately plotted and carefully researched, but it's written well enough, and it's a lot of fun.
I liked that the story starts at the end, once the bad guys have been caught and they're trying to figure out exactly what happened. I'm not a huge fan of kidnapping stories, but this set up took the stress out of it. The characters are interesting, and even though you kind of know how it's going to end at the beginning, you still want to know how it gets there.

satisfying

Quite disturbing storyline but I really enjoyed it nonetheless. The details were well executed and scary but gave a good mental picture.

Disturbing but so good

So this book is very good. It’s engaging, has complex characters, solid story structure and is creepy in the best way. However I didn’t like how the performance was done. Using one Narrator for one part and switch to another for the other was strange and took me out of the moment. Both narrators did a good job but the way it was formatted just didn’t make sense to me

Book is fantastic had some issues with performance

I loved this book, I couldn’t stop listening. If you like weird books like me, then this is for you. I’ve read a bunch of books about abduction or captivity (like I said, I like weird books :P) and this is definitely one of the most interesting stories. #Audible1

Sad but reaaally entertaining

The concept for the story was unique and interesting, although a big drawn out. The protagonist was likeable to an extent. I don't think it was overly reflective of what it would be like in such a psychologically disturbing place. Definite trigger warning for rape, sexual violence, and sexual coercion. The ending had so much potential, and I was expecting a big, dark twist. Alas, the twist was stupid and irrelevant. Hardly even consider it a twist I guess.

Enjoyable book, potentially triggering, bad ending

I loved the narration, having two gender parties instead of just one was a nice change. I did however wish it would have been darker. They should have put in alot more detail about the butterflies deaths which I think is a very important part of the novel!

Good but could have been great

It was a interesting story. Nothing too deep or scary in detail. The concept was interesting and I looked forward to see how it would unfurle. Like others, I didn't think the last twist part at end really added anything to the book, But all in all this was a mildly dark good read.

It was good

I thought this was a great listen. The transition between POV narration was seamless and made the timeline jumps easy to follow.

The only thing I didn’t love was the ending. I thought it could have benefitted from an epilogue to tell us where/how certain characters ended up.

Definitely worth reading!
