The Last Thing She Ever Did

De: Gregg Olsen

Narrado por: Karen Peakes

From the Amazon Charts and #1 New York Times bestselling author comes a psychological thriller exploring the things we dare to do when no one is looking...

The community along Oregon’s Deschutes River is one of successful careers and perfect families. For years, up-and-comers Liz and Owen have admired their good friends and neighbors, Carole and David. They appear to have it all - security, happiness, and a beautiful young son, Charlie.

Then Charlie vanishes without a trace, and all that seemed safe is shattered by a tragedy that is incomprehensible - except to Liz.

It took one fleeting moment for her to change the lives of everyone she loves - a heartrending accident that can’t be undone. Neither can the second-worst mistake of her life: concealing it. As two marriages crack and buckle in grief and fear, Liz retreats into her own dark place of guilt, escalating paranoia - and betrayals even she can’t imagine. Because there’s another good neighbor who has his own secrets, his own pain, and his own reasons for watching Liz’s every move.

And only he knows that the mystery of the missing boy on the Deschutes River is far from over.

The Last Thing She Ever Did by Gregg Olsen

📚Honest Review📚

Once more Gregg Olsen delivered a story full of plot twists, suspense and drama. An overwhelming choice of words gave life to four characters who keep the reader hanging by a thread.

A missing boy, an accident and a cover up that leads to a spider web where the worse of every character comes to light.

A relentless police office who plays by the book make this story even more appealing. She provides a moral frame the other characters seem to have forgotten.

A woman, who never lost track of her actions and does not want to live with herself, knowing what she caused.

Brilliant story and definitively a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

“There’s a special place in hell for those who hurt children” Gregg Olsen

Excellent author and narrator.

These books read very much like true crime. If you enjoy podcasts about true crime you will love this author!

A novel about trying to escape guilt

There’s a terrible accident and the main character is trying and failing to deal with her guilt though there’s a thin overarching mystery. Honestly the main character is hard to listen to, always breaking down. I prefer strong female leads but it’s understandable considering her emotional nature. For someone who attended law school she lacks common sense or legal education. She keeps saying she wants to do the right thing but never ever does. The story doesn’t build or grow it’s relative up and downs on a flatline but still entertaining enough for the stars.

Mixed feelings

The narration was great, but the story rubbed me the wrong way. I didn’t like that Liz took so long to figure out her husband. And Charlie’s mom was a little too cold. All the characters were just too shady for my taste.

Suspenseful story

This story was excellently narrated. The plot was good although it did seem somewhat drawn out. Easily could have ended this 100 pages sooner. Still, another good suspenseful story.

Pretty good!

I'm not sure how realistic it might be, but then again, it's meant to be entertainment, not nonfiction! I enjoyed it! Without giving anything away, I was amazed that anyone would be capable of handling a similar situation in such an odd manner ~ but that may be exactly what draws one in.....

Page turner

This book was great. A completely different story line. The characters were intriguing both good and bad. Glad I listened to it

No definitive ending

I have loved all of the authors previous books but this one not so much. Also I despise books without an ending. Overall I thought the characters were a bunch of whiny selfish individuals.

This book had me hooked..

What a great story, never a boring moment just a very detailed storyline. the narrator truly gave every character a voice and expressed their feelings in a believable way. Enjoy the narrator she made the book very enjoyable.

Great surprise ending!

Narrator did a nice job of distinguishing between characters. Loved the book! Highly recommend it!
