About this listen

"Jack's in charge," said his mother, as she disappeared up the road to get help. "I won't be long." So 11-year-old Jack and his two sisters wait on the hard shoulder in their stifling, broken-down car, bickering and whining and playing I-Spy until she comes back. But their mother doesn't come back. She never comes back. And after that long hot summer day, nothing will ever be the same again.

Three years later, Jack's 15 and still in charge. Meanwhile, across town, a young woman called Catherine wakes up to find a knife beside her bed and a note reading, "I could of killed you." The police are tracking a mysterious burglar called Goldilocks for his habit of sleeping in the beds of the houses he robs, but Catherine doesn't see the point of involving the police. And Jack, very suddenly, may be on the verge of finding out who killed his mother.

A twisty, masterfully written novel that will have listeners on the edge of their seats, Snap is Belinda Bauer at the height of her powers.

This is the story of what happens after all of the “hullabaloo” is over and the crime is still
unsolved Great weaving of all of the lives involved and the unraveling of the “perfect” crime.

Great mystery/suspense

Started a bit slow, but it kept developing plot twists and characters, till about 3/4 of the way in I found myself fully invested and cheering and laughing and sad along with the characters.

Keeps getting better

This book kept my attention from start to finish. Loved the different detectives and their personalities. Jack is a hero and you want to cheer him on.

i loved the whole book, all the twists and turns. Especially loved the narrator. A very good experience for me and I have rexommended it to my audible reader friends. A real highlight for me every day until I finished it. Have started Rubbernecker but immediately was disappointed as it was not the same narrator but I will give it a chance and go on the more books by this author.

Appropriate title for this book!

Longlisted for 2018 Man Booker Prize. When crime fiction gets longlisted for the Booker Prize, you have my attention. The novel starts off intriguingly enough...in fact, three (seemingly unconnected, but we know better, don't we?) stories each pull in the reader: 1. Three children are left abandoned in a car on the side of the highway while their pregnant mother walks to get help, but she never returns; 2. Police detectives are on the hunt for a burglar who breaks into family homes to steal healthy food, commit vandalism, and sleep in a child's bed; and 3. A pregnant woman awakens to a sound in the night and finds a knife with the note "I could have killed you." At about 25% of the way through the story, I thought this was the most gripping thriller I had read since The Silence of the Lambs! But then, as the stories joined, the intrigue diminished. It was still an enjoyable listen, but I'm now among the many who are baffled that this made it onto the Booker Long List. #Audible1

I enjoyed the story I didn't completely hold my attention I think that was partly because of the narrator. but it was a good story with some twists I didn't anticipate

well this story held some surprises

Very enjoyable with larger than life characters, great dialogue and superb pacing. Has some laugh out loud sequences alongside a really gripping story. My first time with Belinda Bauer but it won’t be my last!

Excellent mystery!
