About this listen

Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer.

A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Maureen loves her sister, but when Audrey's criminal past catches up to them both, she will have to make some difficult decisions about the limits of family loyalty - and just how far sisters are willing to go to protect each other...

Mind Blown

This was written well, I did not realize the plot twist till the end and I usually work them out early on.

Amazing twist

Don’t look any further, you found your next listen right here. What a great story, I was fully immersed in the dramatic telling and drama of these characters!!!! If you are the person who guesses how a story ends; give this book a listen and (hopefully) you will be shocked, in that way that makes reading so fun!

Excellent unexpected twist at the end!

Everything - story line, reader’s vocal - wonderful! It had the ‘sound’ of a podcast, yet strangely more like a story of someone who was trying to figure everything out. I loved it!

Great Listen

I may not have been surprised if I’d actually read the words in a book but to listen was awesome. Kept me interested the entire time.

I will not spoil the story

Very slow moving

I kept listening and waiting for something to happen. The book has a great concept and she’s a good writer but, it is flowing too slow. I feel it has a big ahh ha moment but the rest of time, it was just dragging. Can’t say I totally dislike the book, it just wasn’t flowing well for me.

3.5 ⭐️

Really didn’t see the twists coming at first.
Towards the end I was realizing something was wrong and sure enough, there was!

First book that I’ve read by the author, might read more!
Very realistic read, had goosebumps in so many chapters.
Reading what happened to them as kids was a little hard to read, but it’s so realistic, happens to kids all the time unfortunately.
Quick read, good story, entertaining twists to keep a reader going.

Great reader

Story was really good but sad. Unfortunately things like this really happen. Mental illness is a sickness with no cure. Just medicine to cope with.
