About this listen

Mike Wingate, abandoned by his father at four and raised in foster care, is finally living the life he always dreamed of - he's happily married with a precocious 8-year-old daughter, and his construction company is about to finish a "green" housing development that will secure a solid future for them all. But then something from his own past, a past he doesn't even remember, comes back to visit terror upon him and his family.

Shady characters begin threatening Mike, and when he reports them, the police seem more interested in Mike's murky past than in protecting him. Now, with Mike, his wife Annabel and daughter Kat suddenly under attack from all sides, Mike turns to Shep, a dangerous man - and Mike's only true friend - from his childhood days in foster care. Together they will do whatever it takes to protect Mike's family against the hidden men behind the terrifying warning, "You're Next."

What the critics say

"Excellent...keeps Mike (and the reader) on edge, wondering what is happening to him and how far it will escalate. Highly recommended to Hurwitz’s many faithful readers and to fans of Linwood Barclay, Harlen Coben, and Lisa Gardner." --Booklist

"The bad guys are suitably evil and the mystery satisfying, but Hurwitz’s real success is depicting Mike’s hard-won life as a husband, father, and successful businessman. A first-rate thriller!" --Library Journal (starred review)

"Hurwitz masterfully provokes feelings of extreme dread...Shep and Mike fight and sleuth their way through intensifying mayhem until they find the unexpected answer...." --Publishers Weekly

I got bored several times in the story. The author trying to keep reemphasizing that the main character is honest and a good husband and father. It got nauseating. Several times I seriously considered just returning the book.

A bit slow.

This is one of the best audiobooks I have ever listened to. The performance was amazing and the story…amazing!

There were were parts of the book where I had to stop listening. The story was so overwhelming and emotional.

This is definitely worthy of a listen

Just… Wow!

I enjoyed the story and the characters voices ! My one complaint is that the book was too long winded with much attention to useless detail. I would have edited two hours right out of this book and it would have been a perfect five stars !!!
