Abandoned: A Novel

Max Revere Series, Book 5

De: Allison Brennan

Narrado por: Eliza Foss

New York Times best-selling author Allison Brennan weaves the intimate, unpausable story of an investigator confronting the most important - and most dangerous - mystery of her career, in Abandoned

Investigative reporter Max Revere has cracked many cases, but the one investigation she's never attempted is the mystery from her own past. Her mother abandoned her when she was nine, sending her periodic postcards, but never returning to reclaim her daughter. Seven years after the postcards stop coming, Martha Revere is declared legally dead, with no sign of what may have happened to her. Until now.

With a single clue - that her mother’s car disappeared 16 years ago in a small town on the Chesapeake Bay - Max drops everything to finally seek the truth. As Max investigates, and her mother's story unfolds, she realizes that Martha teamed up with a con man. They traveled the world living off Martha’s trust and money they conned from others.

Though no one claims to know anything about Martha or her disappearance, Max suspects more than one person is lying. When she learns the FBI has an active investigation into the con man, Max knows she’s on the right path. But as Max digs into the dark secrets of this idyllic community, the only thing she might find is the same violent end as her mother.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Boldly drawn, psychologically complex characters and a multifaceted plot distinguish this entry, which thoughtfully explores the different forms that family can take." (Publishers Weekly)

wonderful

loved it kept me interested til the very end fascinating listening in my car on my way to work did not want to get out and go to work great ending but sad as well

I can’t get enough.

My only disappointment is when I finish the series. This characters become a part of you. I can’t get enough of Allison Brennan.

Great book

Really enjoyed this book. Didn’t want it to end. Characters are real and described in depth. I loved this book.

Best One Yet!

I love this series and this one in particular.. The story was great and the ending? I won’t spoil it but I gotta say, I’m so happy!

Fantastic!

I loved this book. Rich characters and great story line. Must look immediately for another Alison Brennan novel

Good book, but the worst in series.

Brennan only writes good to great books. I enjoyed each book in this series, but this was the worst - but still good. Still worth a token.

Max found out much about her mom, but the bad guy was not really bad til the end. The take down was quick with little description. And a good guy died. It could have been much better.

POOR STORY. WORSE NARRATOR

I just had to give up on this book early on and return it, which I seldom do. I'll admit I didn't get very far. The story was slow and sophomoric, but the narrator was simply awful!

It's ok, rushed ending catching bad guy.

Better than book 4 but not the best in series. A bit redundant, predictable and too quick in love. Couldn't Max just work with someone and not have to hook up. It's ok to concentrate on work for a bit after ending a relationship. Really another FBI agent. There was enough personal drama I think the romance took away from the story. Would rather have paternity tests then a instant romance.
Slowly unwrapping story with unnecessary characters then rushing through conclusion of finding murderer .

Soooo draaaawn oouut and horrible ending

This may be my last in the series… the first few kept my attention. This one was grueling to get through and the ending was awful…, Imm begging to feel like Max is nuts.
