About this listen

Secrets worth dying - and killing - for, in a novel of suspense inspired by a horrific true crime by Washington Post and Amazon Charts bestselling author Loreth Anne White.

When the battered body of a female jogger is found beneath the cliffs of an idyllic coastal community, these perfect neighbors suddenly don’t seem so perfect...

Lily Bradley is a respected psychotherapist married to a distinguished professor. They live in a dream house with their two children in close-knit Story Cove. Lily lives a well-ordered life. Or so it seems. As a therapist, she knows everyone keeps things hidden. Even her.

Then sensual and free-spirited Arwen Harper rolls into town in her hand-painted VW van, her sixteen-year-old son riding shotgun. Overnight, Story Cove’s secrets are no longer safe. Because Arwen might know her new neighbors better than they know themselves.

Now someone is dead, and it looks like murder. Brutal and personal. The death invites the shrewd eye of Detective Rue Duval. Rue’s job is to expose secrets. But she’s also an expert at keeping them.

As the lives of three women become inexorably entwined, one thing is clear: when it comes to survival, ordinary people can do the most terrible things.

Sadly it was hard to keep remembering who was who.I listened to the end . Not the type mystery that grabs me.

Pretty weird

I didn't remember til the second time halfway through that I had ALREADY listened to it. a couple of red herrings, a few things didn't really ring true while others were interesting twists.
Good for listening to in "chunks" while driving or working as I found myself sometimes tuning out, yet could still easily follow the plot.

Okay diversion. Not terribly memorable...
