Description

“The night they killed our neighbors, we never heard a thing.”

In a quiet suburban neighborhood, in a house only one door away, a family is brutally murdered for no apparent reason. And you think to yourself: It could have been us. And you start to wonder: What if we’re next?

Linwood Barclay, critically acclaimed author of No Time for Goodbye, brings terror closer than ever before in a thriller where murder strikes in the place we feel safest of all. Promise Falls isn’t the kind of community where a family is shot to death in their own home. But that is exactly what happened to the Langleys one sweltering summer night, and no one in this small upstate New York town is more shocked than their next-door neighbors, Jim and Ellen Cutter. They visited for the occasional barbecue and their son, Derek, was friends with the Langleys’ boy, Adam; but how well did they really know their neighbors? 

That’s the question Jim Cutter is asking, and the answers he’s getting aren’t reassuring. Albert Langley was a successful, well-respected criminal lawyer, but was he so good at getting criminals off that he was the victim of revenge - a debt his innocent family also paid in blood? From the town’s criminally corrupt mayor to the tragic suicide of a talented student a decade before, Promise Falls has more than its share of secrets. And Jim Cutter, failed artist turned landscaper, need look no further than his own home and his wife Ellen’s past to know that things aren’t always what they seem. But not even Jim and Ellen are ready to know that their son was in the Langley house the night the family was murdered.

Suddenly the Cutters must face the unthinkable: that a murderer isn’t just stalking too close to home but is inside it already. For the Langleys weren’t the first to die and they won’t be the last.

Simply amazing

This book was on sale and I purchased simply because of that. The quality of the story and the price had little correlation. This was my first experience with audible and it's amazing. Linwood Barkley has a beautiful style of writing and I invite you all to embark on the journey this book takes you. I will definitely pick up a physical copy of this because I just have to have it.

Sadly, Had to return

I think the story was brilliant, but I just couldn't listen to the "he said" "she said" anymore. I don't recall this being so invasive in other audiobooks or if it was the narration. I really wanted to listen, maybe this will be a book I need to read instead.

This book is F@#$ing amazing!

I have been searching for an author that can provide a suspenseful and thrilling murder mystery. Linwood Barclay exceeded this, the plot development kept me obsessed the entire read. I especially loved the way the author described the characters and and as the plot developed so did the characters.

Linwood Barclay has easily become my favorite author and I've only read one book by him. I cannot wait to read more about the universe the author created called Promise Falls.

Very good story

This was a well written story with unexpected twists and very good characters. I enjoyed it very much, not a nail biting thriller, just a good
story. Sometimes the narrator was hard to listen to, he doesn't do the individual voices well, but it wasn't terrrible. I would recommend.

It made me angry, sad, shocked, and addicted to the plot and performance. Great read.

Linwood Barclay has quickly become my favourite author

Seriously I’m starting to think that this man can do no wrong and this book was no exception. Great characters, suspenseful plot, kept me guessing until the very end.

I also LOVE Christopher Lane, he’s so great at distinguishing the different characters and his voice is so easy to listen to. So much emotion. Overall this was fantastic!!
