About this listen

From the bestselling author of The Perfect Child comes a shocking thriller about the disturbing complexities of a mother’s love and the deadly consequences of unravelling family secrets.

On a humid summer day in Alabama, a mayor’s wife turns up brutally murdered under a railroad bridge. Standing next to her body is fourteen-year-old Mason Hill, the autistic son of former Miss USA Genevieve Hill. The locals are quick to level their verdict on young Mason: he did it.

The town detective calls in local autism expert Casey Walker to consult on the case. At first, Casey tries to keep an open mind. But the more time she spends with Genevieve, the more her unease grows, and she suspects that Genevieve is doing more than just protecting her son.

Casey’s misgivings surrounding Genevieve’s story only intensify when she meets Savannah, Genevieve’s nineteen-year-old daughter. Savannah, as it turns out, has some disturbing secrets of her own. But as Casey dives ever deeper into the Hill family dynamic, her search for the truth leads to another shocking murder—one that shatters her understanding of the human condition in ways she never imagined.

Critic reviews

“The action never wavers, and the surprises are unending. Berry is writing at the top of her game.”Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Editorial Review

The plot sickens
"This one’s easy," I thought to myself. "Sit back and go with the flow. I know where this is going." NOT. The story unfolds in a small Alabama town. The mayor’s bludgeoned wife is found by a creek. A former beauty queen and her son have been placed at the scene. All eyes are on the son, an autistic teenager. Author Lucinda Berry was a clinical psychologist and specialized in childhood trauma. She channels her expertise through Casey Walker, an adviser on the case whose shocking discoveries only get more disturbing. The surprise ending truly kept me glued to the edge of my club chair. — Yvonne D.

The plot goes on many random rabbit trails, but good story over all. Great author

Very good

I felt like I must be missing a second book or something. I was hooked on the story then it just ended with a ton of questions that I felt should have been answered with main characters.

The ending left much to be desired.

This story kept me guessing. I enjoy the psychological perspective, as well as the family importance.

Tricky

Absolutely couldn't stop listening. This production is out of this world, the various voices and accents really made this tale so much more real. The storyline is phenomenal, with so many twists, you are likely to get whiplash. Lucinda is the mistress of mystery!!!

Wow, wow, wow!!! What a twist!

This one’s gonna capture you and keep you until you get to the end of the story. What an amazing read. So many psychological twist and turn you don’t see coming in a couple that you do. Enjoy the book! 

Dang Linda!

This could have been a great story but fell flat! The ending was not satisfying at all! Maybe there will be a sequel. I did enjoy the narration

Could have been great

It’s like the author got tired of writing and hurried up the ending to finish. It was a good book up until the end.

Bad ending!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

This book started out so promising! I was even recommending it to people before I even finished it, now I have to go back and warn them that the ending is absolutely terrible and answers zero of the questions you ask yourself during the story and find yourself looking forward to getting the answers to. It left me with even more questions and nowhere to turn to with them. I’m so bummed I wasted a credit on this one.

The worst ending!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Interesting twist at the end. No resolution for several characters. Doubt if I listen to this author again

Left a lot unresolved
