About this listen
When the body of a local woman is discovered by the lake, the small town of Aldercreek is thrown into chaos. This tight-knit community of successful families and well-kept secrets is suddenly confronted with a dark mystery. Just as the dust begins to settle, a newcomer arrives: Eden, an outsider with quiet intensity and a hidden agenda. She knows more than she lets on, and as she digs into the town’s history, old wounds and dark secrets begin to resurface.
Beneath Aldercreek’s polished surface, Eden stirs suspicions, revealing a web of manipulation and mind games among its seemingly perfect residents. Long-buried family secrets and rivalries come to light, threatening to unravel the lives of those involved. Tension mounts as Eden’s search uncovers connections to the dead woman that no one wants exposed. Suspicion shifts from one familiar face to another, while Eden’s own motives remain a mystery, adding layers to an already suspenseful puzzle.
In this gripping, edge-of-your-seat thriller, nothing—and no one—is as they seem. As Eden’s investigation digs deeper, the stakes grow higher, forcing the residents to confront the twisted truth hiding in plain sight. This thriller is filled with dark secrets, mystery, and suspense, promising to keep readers hooked until the final reveal.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,159
Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 358
Nathan Tyler is an unassuming professor at a middling American university with a rather obscure specialty in mathematics—in short, a nobody from nowhere. So why is the White House calling? Summoned to Washington, DC, for a top-secret briefing, Nathan discovers that he’s the key to a massive foreign intelligence breakthrough. Reading between the lines of a cryptic series of equations, he could open a door straight into the heart of the Kremlin and change the global balance of power forever.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

It seemed like a dream come true when we first moved in. A chance to leave my stressful job behind and fix things with James. But something gnaws at me each morning as I wave my husband off to work from our gated community, accept a coffee from Lin, our housekeeper, and watch my kids play in these eerily perfect, car-free streets. When a neighbor’s body is found floating in a pool during a party, the other wives say it was a tragic accident. But there are also whispers about the family who lived in our villa before us—just vanished one day, they say.

I loved the anonymity, flexibility and solitude that working the night shift at Storage Queen gave me. The unsociable hours paid well, helping me fund my university degree and giving me a quiet place to study while the world slept peacefully in their warm, cozy beds. It was the perfect job for me. But that Friday night proved to be more than I bargained for when a man walked through the door, dragging a large suitcase. My immediate instincts told me something was wrong. That’s when my ordeal began. I just had to make it through the night shift.

The strongest lies aren’t the ones we tell others—they’re the ones we tell ourselves. I thought I'd found my fairy tale ending when Andrew Chadwick saved my life during a hotel fire and gave me a whirlwind love story I didn’t think existed. But trusting him made me vulnerable, and believing in the impossible made me an easy target. Six months later, we're celebrating our dream wedding at an exclusive island resort, where every luxury imaginable is at our fingertips. It should be perfect. It should be paradise. But it's not.

Great Story Telling
This gripping audiobook kept me hooked & I was invested in the story. The story is well-paced, mixed with suspense, drama, and twists in a way that keeps you eager to see what happens next. The characters are well developed, and the narration enhances the overall experience. Simply put, it was great storytelling.

Their actions have molded and shaped her life and although it was not all bad, her childhood was deeply affected.

good back bad narration
The book overall was well written, easy to follow, and believable. The narration was horrible, I almost returned it because it was so bad. If you get past that it is worth a credit.
