Summary
Marshal Teddy Daniels has come to Shutter Island, home of Ashecliffe Hospital for the Criminally Insane, to find an escaped murderer named Rachel Solando.
As a killer hurricane bears down on the island, the investigation deepens, and the questions mount. How has a barefoot woman escaped from a locked room? Who is leaving them clues in the form of cryptic codes? And what really goes on in Ward C?
The closer Teddy gets to the truth, the more elusive it becomes. And the more he begins to believe that he may never leave Shutter Island. Because someone is trying to drive him insane....

Gripping and so well read
Where does Shutter Island rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
near the very top! this is one of those books that really does have it all, interesting story, very well written and impeccably read. It's set in an insane asylum which piqued my interest immediately (I find books about the mind so intriguing!) and as you would imagine...all is not as it seems. there are some fabulous twists that I certainly didn't see coming. It is terribly sad in places and can be quite unsettling, the ending is so so good!!!!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Chuck... or was it? no spoilers, you'll have to listen to find out!
Have you listened to any of Tom Stechschulte’s other performances? How does this one compare?
No I haven't but I fully intend to now.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes and no... I didn't want the book to end as it was so good but I was also desperate to get to the truth with Teddy!
Any additional comments?

Great story
I loved this audiobook, as I knew I would because I love the film and have see it very many times. This is one where the film actually stays true to the book, I'm happy to say. I listened to this all in one day because I enjoyed it so much.

Lehane at his best
One of the best books I've ever listened to. Mystery, action, thriller and a dose of psychology.
Lehane makes you feel for the characters, creates picture perfect images in your mind and keeps you hooked right to the end.
Narrator does a fine job.

Brilliant
I enjoyed the film and I've been surprised with how closely the film has matched the book. The narration was perfect!

mixed bag
An intriguing story to begin with as the story unfold. A disappointing ending. Felt cheated by it.

I'm still confused
Any additional comments?
It's a good concept for a story but after finishing this book I was left confused i didn't feel there was any closure to this book. Also I'm disbelief of myself that I sat and listened to the entire book. I was not impressed with the crudeness of this book even though I do understand that I was written in a time period where no one cared about being pc but there is a limit I mean hairspray was written in the same time period but they didn't go overboard in what they called people are how they expressed how they felt are what they thought of women.
I liked the narrator but not the book

Breathtaking!
Any additional comments?
Beautifully written and great performance. I listened to this in 2 sittings (not sitting really, tidying!) I loved every minute of it! Thoroughly recommend! The setting, characters, twist all bloody brilliant, captivating, so emotional!

As good as the film!
Ive already seen the film so knew the plot.
However, if reading it before watching, I would say there are enough twists and turns to keep the reader hooked.
The film is very true to the book

One of my favourites
I loved this book! Great story, fantastic and unexpected twist at the end which, having never watched the movie, left me gobsmacked! I would almost listen to this all over again.

Great Book!
Different to what I normally listen to but I was not disappointed!
My family had warned me there was a twist but I honestly had no idea.
I always rate a book on whether I gawp in shock - and I did so it’s a 5 from me!
