Acerca de esta escucha

On the day she was abducted, Annie O’Sullivan, a 32-year-old Realtor, had three goals: sell a house, forget about a recent argument with her mother, and be on time for dinner with her ever-patient boyfriend. The open house is slow, but when her last visitor pulls up in a van as she’s about to leave, Annie thinks it just might be her lucky day after all.

Interwoven with the story of the year Annie spent captive in a remote mountain cabin — which unfolds through sessions with her psychiatrist — is a second narrative recounting the nightmare that follows her escape: her struggle to piece her shattered life back together, the ongoing police investigation into the identity of her captor, and the disturbing sense that things are far from over.

The truth doesn’t always set you free.

Still Missing is a shocking, visceral, brutal, and beautifully crafted debut novel about surviving the unsurvivable — and living to bear witness.

Reseñas editoriales

Annie O’Sullivan is your average 32-year-old successful businesswoman. She owns a large Victorian home, is up for a big project at her real estate firm, and has a doting boyfriend, loyal golden retriever, and a core group of close friends and family. But, she’s also got a major chip on her shoulder.

After being abducted from her last open house and held captive for an entire year by a psychopathic man named David, the former Annie is Still Missing and still seeking answers about the deliberateness of her disappearance.

Chevy Stevens’ breakout book, Still Missing, narrated by Angela Dawe, explores the inner workings of the human mind when it’s nearly past redemption.

Set up as a first-person account divided into 26 therapy sessions, Annie vividly depicts a mixture of ghastly memories as a captive in the windowless seclusion of a small log cabin with her present-day demons sleeping in the closet and timed urination.

The novel itself is stanch, but it is Dawe’s flippant, no-nonsense tone that brilliantly enacts Steven’s rigid, exact language, revealing Annie from the very beginning. In fact, Dawe’s performance so flawlessly portrays the shrewd, rough-and-tumble, yet angst-ridden young woman, you often forget you’re listening to a work of fiction.

Similarly, Dawe has no trouble transitioning to the deeply disturbed David, the mild-mannered boyfriend, or the overbearing, overdone mother. Regardless of character, her performance is seamless, creating an unrivaled listening experience.

A frighteningly intense tale of abuse, hope, betrayal, and the struggle to live on after epic devastation, Chevy Stevens’ Still Missing is an in-your-face rollercoaster ride of emotion that will leave listeners lining up again. Sarah Zimmerman

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The intense plot alternates between Annie's creepy confinement, her escape, and her attempts to readjust to real life, from going to the bathroom when she wants to managing her own meals. Still, Annie knows that a large part of her soul is still missing. Her transformation from victim adds to the believability of the enthralling plot." ( Publishers Weekly)

So apparently Chevy Stevens had gotten wide acclaim for this, her first book and I can definitely see why. The actual writing was 'ok' to be honest and there are moments in the book where I find myself getting annoyed with the main character 'Annie O’Sullivan' herself. Clearly I am not a young woman who has never been abducted but let’s just say I doubt I would have made with some of the decisions she made. I actually enjoyed how the story was done... from the vantage point of therapy sessions. You can see how she has somewhat of a mental breakdown through the therapy sessions as she works through certain aspects of what happened. The thing though that made this book stand out was the ending... All I can say is that I did NOT see that coming....

Angela Dawe did an exceptional job to be honest. She was able to portray that 'unfurling from at ends' feeling whilst listening to the book which was actually quite fitting for this book.

Initially while writing this review I was on the fence about this book to be honest but thinking back now.... the good outweighs the bad. I am not going to say this was some work of art however it was interesting and that twist! That ending twist was truly something.

Interesting Twist in the End

I certainly hope the author didn't get this story from first-hand experience! What a thriller. Without giving anything away, this is one creepy story. Chevy wrote a very well thought-out tale of personal tragedy, psychological torment and an unbelievable, fantastic ending.

Hope this isn't a one-hit wonder, because I'm really looking forward to the next story from this author.

Wow! What a fantastic story and new author

Very much enjoyed this book! I listen while I commute and clean house....bet I've got the cleanest house on the block since I did not want to stop listening to the book. Hope this author is able to write another book this good.

Purchased a few books before vacation; this is one I normally wouldn't consider - so glad I did though. I LOVED it! Brought it to beach and couldn't put it down, fair skinned girl got a burn!

I listened to it every time I could, between outings with family. One section, of a near second tragedy (not giving anything away-no worries) was a bit far fetched. Aside from that I kept wondering what she would do next. Honeslty felt the kidnapper's motive, once revealed, was a bit of a cop-out for author. However, there were more good aspects to the story than bothersome.

Great idea to bring reader into therapy session and alternate with recap as you live thru the terror of her experience with her. MADE THE BOOK FOR ME! Loved the way it was told. Survivor talking with therapist... and victim's mind-set/ thought process, during ordeal.

I find it interesting that folks were turned off by language or protagonist's tone; some thought it was odd when it changed? I thought it was quite realistic that a person would come out of her situation and see the world, speak of things, differently.

And finally...I loved the end!

Side note: recommended this book to my daughter, age 15 1/2. She loves 'Criminal Minds' stories (behavioral analysis). The protagonist had to do a lot of that kind of thinking on her own just to survive. My daughter isn't an avid reader, YET! I always attempt to introduce her to books (stories) that will grab her! MAY BE THIS IS THE ONE! : ) Her 'free choice' requirement - a nice switch after other summer reading: Farenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury), among others.

Narration pleasant, a little nasal but nothing to turn you off.

Very Good, I'm new to this genre, enjoyed it.

I have listened to hundreds of books, this is by far my favorite. The story line is so different from most typical Thrillers and the Narrator is phenomenal. If you want to be enthralled download this book, you won't be sorry! In my book (no pun intended) It's right up there with Gone Girl.

The Most Gripping Listen Ever!

I almost wondered why it got such great reviews in the beginning, but I’m glad I stuck with it. There is a nice twist, so don’t worry that you are just reading all of the details for a resolution given up front- It is definitely deeper than that!

Gets better & better

This was a good story with lots of drama and good character building. The further the story went the better it got. I did not expect to like this book as much as I did, spend the credit and enjoy.

Story kept getting better

I listen to many audiobooks, and this one was okay. I found the denouement a bit disappointing. It seemed implausible to me, but if you aren't pressed for time and you are interested in the abduction genre, you might enjoy this listen.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes! I'm usually pretty good at figuring out the storyline before it plays out. This one had me guessing until the big reveal. What a good book! Sequel? :)

Who was your favorite character and why?

Gary- He was truly so patient and kind throughout.

Couldn't have guessed where this book was going.
