As Alexandra Winslow climbs the ladder of publishing success, she resolutely adheres to her father's caution: men only read crime thrillers written by men. She publishes under the pseudonym of brilliantly successful Alexander Green, her true identity known only to those closest to her.

Publisher's Summary
In her new novel, Danielle Steel tells a riveting story of the dark side of motherhood.
Zoe Morgan's childhood was marked by her younger sister's tragic illness, watching as her parents dedicated themselves completely to her final days, and then later divorced. As a young woman, driven by these painful memories, Zoe set the bar high for herself, studying hard and pursuing a career in the nonprofit world, where her deep compassion towards disadvantaged children finds a focus.
When Zoe falls in love and has her own child, she is determined to be a perfect mother as well. But before long, old scars long dormant begin to pull Zoe to the edge of an abyss too terrifying to contemplate. As Zoe is haunted by the ghosts of the past, her story will become a race against time, and a tale of psychological suspense that no listener will soon forget.

Not worth the listen
I don’t write reviews often but this book was sooo boring and hard to listen to. I made it to the bitter end, which was predictable and not thrilling at all. So much unnecessary anxiety from this book.

Excellent book
This is my first DS book.
I heard she is known for romance novels but this dark book was far from that.
This was dark and scary. Didn’t think I would like it but it was exciting.
Michael Braun was a really good narrator.
So worth the read.

Not your usual DS
Dark indeed. Even though the ending is predictable to the extent, it was interesting to see how it unfolded. The final scenes are good and I felt terrible for Austin.
I think it would have been better if the narrator was a female voice. I got tired of the word "sensible" through the story.
On a side note, even though a lot of medical details are well described there were a lot inaccuracies. Please, do not give your baby aspirin!!!

Predictable, boring, needless anxiety.
Spoilers
I was under the impression that Danielle Steel wrote Romance, so I missed the Mystery/Thriller tag at first. Mystery/Thriller is a prefered genre of mine. I called MBP at the beginning of the book. Then just listened annoyed as I was working.
The motherhood anxieties were viceral. The details of the injuries to the child were unnerving. The diagnosis was slow. For the painfully lengthy lead up, the conclusion seemed rushed. I don't understand how anyone can honestly rate this book above mediocre.
The only thing that was really good was Michael Braun's soothing voice.
