When

By: Victoria Laurie

Narrated by: Whitney Dykhouse

Pretty Little Liars meets Medium in this fast-paced thriller and fantastic YA debut from a New York Times bestselling author.

Maddie Fynn is a shy high school junior, cursed with an eerie intuitive ability: she sees a series of unique digits hovering above the foreheads of each person she encounters. Her earliest memories are marked by these numbers, but it takes her father's premature death for Maddie and her family to realize that these mysterious digits are actually death dates, and just like birthdays, everyone has one.

Forced by her alcoholic mother to use her ability to make extra money, Maddie identifies the quickly approaching death date of one client's young son, but because her ability only allows her to see the when and not the how, she's unable to offer any more insight. When the boy goes missing on that exact date, law enforcement turns to Maddie.

Soon, Maddie is entangled in a homicide investigation, and more young people disappear and are later found murdered. A suspect for the investigation, a target for the murderer, and attracting the attentions of a mysterious young admirer who may be connected to it all, Maddie's whole existence is about to be turned upside down. Can she right things before it's too late?

Wonderfully different

Loved the idea of the main character's talent. And she is a strong young lady. Good family values

a series of brutal murders

The narrator was good, which was the reason I chose this book. The writing style is very good. The grammar and sentences well constructed and smooth. The story is horrifying. One part I am not sure is believable, but I don't know because I don't know much about alcoholism, is the mother is an alcoholic yet seems gentle and kind.

Fantastic book

Both the author and the narrator brought the story to life in a way that was engaging and exciting. They would pull you into a story to where you lost track of everything else around you. I highly highly recommend this book!!

Wasn't What I Was Hoping For

I love the idea of someone being able to see other peoples' death dates. It really makes you think about how someone would deal with this ability in real life. But that is where the fascination ends. I was hoping this book would be about the main character helping solve murders or something. Instead, it is mostly how nobody believes her and how crappy her life is. Very depressing. Finally gets good again at the end. Very, very slow in the middle of the book. Almost stopped listening to it.

Brilliant

My 12 year old daughter and I loved this! Definitely in our top favourite audiobooks. The writing is excellent, the story well crafted, and the narration brings it all to life. We’ll be looking for more from both the author and the narrator.

13 yr old sons favorite book ever!

I am a 13 year old boy struggling with having the attention to read I can't stand sitting down and reading a book. this book is action packed full of Adventure and overall an excellent audiobook to listen to the The narrator's Voice matches perfectly with the main character, Maddie the narrator can also easily portray anyone else in the book the ending will shock you every Twist and Turn will excite you. definitely recommend.

Ok-to-good, not great

While I enjoyed the book to a certain extent, the ending got so ridiculously cheesy, I could take it and I ended up yelling in my car over and over again about the corniness of it all

Just a great story!

Completely enjoyed the story, the narrator, absolutely everything about it! i usually listen on the way to & from work, but this one - especially the last hour, i listened to at home!

What a great book

I really didn't know what to expect with this book. It was well thought out. I can usually guess what's going go happen next. Not with this writer! Really great story that stands a lone. I've never seen or heard of what Maddi can do. She is an amazing character. The book takes you on the best ride! Read it!

Very Sweet Story

Loved it! Great mixture of drama, caring characters, tough situations and a happy ending. I love the narrator, she managed all the voices to the point I lost track it was a woman speaking.
