About this listen

Officer Violet Babineaux is called to the scene of a suicide where she finds her childhood friend Charlotte Labarre lying on a blood-soaked couch with a gun in her hand. Violet believes she could have prevented her suicide with a simple call. While placed on administrative leave, guilt drives her to investigate on her own, starting with Psychology Professor Daniel Russo who had an inappropriate relationship with Charlotte, his student. Violet portrays a vulnerable facade to entice his interest, however she falls for his charms. And Dr. Russo's news of Charlotte’s secret diary threatens to blow the case wide open.

Unsure about Dr. Russo's involvement, Violet presents a bold conspiracy theory involving cops to her partner Lenny Blake, but he and Homicide Detective Walter Wild dismiss her despite the evidence. When Violet finally acquires an elusive piece to the puzzle, the answers are far worse than not knowing.

I have mixed feelings about this book. At times, it feels too much like “a day in the life of Officer Violet Babineaux”. It’s a slow burn at first, I stuck with it and became engrossed in the mysteries.

The audiobook narrator is great overall. There’s a time or two where the audio is poorly connected; which is to be expected with Audible books. Her character voices are passable but by no means bad.

This isn’t the most thought-provoking mystery, it’s still enjoyable and I recommend it.
