À propos de cet audio
The gripping new Audible Original from queen of suspense K. L. Slater.
When the call came it seemed like the answer to my prayers.
My career as a voice actor had been over for months and me and my little girl Scarlet were living back at my mum’s place. I felt like a failure professionally—and with Scarlet having problems at school, as a parent as well.
So, when I was asked to narrate a new book by disappeared novelist Philippa Roberts I jumped at the chance, even if it meant leaving Scarlet with my ex, Hugo, for a few weeks. Hugo, with his perfect new home and his perfect new girlfriend Saskia.
But this isn’t a dream come true. It’s a nightmare.
There’s something hidden in the pages of this book, I’m sure of it. Some clue to Philippa’s disappearance. And I don’t feel safe. I’m being watched. My room has been searched. Saskia has been calling me in tears. If I don’t find answers fast I’ll lose more than my second chance.
I’ll lose my daughter.
A breath-taking new thriller from the number one author of The Marriage and The Widow. If you like Gone Girl, The Girl on The Train and The Wife Between Us then you will love The Narrator.

Slater's characters are maddeningly insupportable at times (it's sometimes hard to care about what happens to them.. and this book is no different). That aspect turns this book into a great distraction, but not much more than that.
As to presentation: the reading tandem of Clare Corbett and Kristin Atherton is truly outstanding. Corbett continues her habit of taking deep breaths and providing grating child voices, but Audible Originals Inc. was wise to enlist two narrators for the book - Corbett isn't great at making individual characters distinctive enough to underline POV changes. The production standards are impeccable.
Altogether, 'The Narrator' was an excellent way to spend a couple of quiet afternoons. This 7.5/10-star audiobook is worth your time. If it leaves the 'Plus' catalog you can find better options for your Credit.. but keep browsing if they ask for money.
Good Book

This was my 11th book by this author and once again I’m impressed (sarcasm) by her choices of twists and conclusion.
The premises were interesting enough to get my attention, but the delivery was not what was promised in the blurb.
Although entertaining (hats off to that!), there are lots of absurdity.
That conclusion was really a stretch (if not infuriating), but it seems that lots of readers loved it.
This another fast read.
There are 65 chapters in a book of 304 pages (paperback).
The author does have great ideas, but she writes too fast (so it seems), and the book becomes heartless with flat characters.
A fast read
