“Narrator January LaVoy’s well-paced performance enhances the tension of this stand-alone thriller featuring Maya Burkett, a veteran of the Iraq War whose PTSD worsens after she witnesses the murder of her husband. One of the highlights of LaVoy’s performance is her skill in capturing the dual nature of Maya’s personality: tough military officer on one hand and vulnerable widow/single mother on the other. When the investigation into Joe’s murder threatens to unearth family secrets, Maya begins to question how well she ever knew her husband. LaVoy’s dynamic narration and distinct characterizations make this multilayered story a winning audiobook. The listener is kept guessing to the end as each piece of evidence adds a new twist to the case.”
