About this listen

 Joseph O'Loughlin appears to have the perfect life: a beautiful wife, a loving daughter, and a successful career as a clinical psychologist. But nothing can be taken for granted. Even the most flawless existence is only one loose thread away from unravelling. All it takes is a murdered girl, a troubled young patient - and the biggest lie of his life.©2004 Michael Robotham (P)2022 W. F. Howes Ltd Suspense Thriller & Suspense Exciting Mystery

This was a wonderful surprise download and listen. I will definitely read subsequent books by this author. The narration by Cristin Redman is spot on. Highly recommendable book.

I mostly listen while driving, found myself looking for excuses to be in the car.

at times I did find the main characters decisions maddening but it all came together in the end.

I'm looking forward to book 2

I found the book dragged.
And although I enjoyed the narrator, he would sometimes talk in a whisper.

it was alright

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
