About this listen

From Michael Peterson of TV’s Bones comes another twisted murder mystery that takes place in the small town of Jakob’s Point, where there are more members from the Witness Protection Program than anywhere else in America. When the Federal Marshal, the only person who knows the true identities of the residents of the town, turns up dead, and his records are destroyed, FBI Special Agent Alice Wheaton gets swept up in the investigation. In Jakob’s Point, where everyone is a witness, and everyone is a suspect, Alice must use her secret weapon – forensic listening – to find the killer. As she probes, she’s compelled to confront her own unresolved past trauma. Can Alice uncover the truth in a town full of lies? And can she do it before the killer comes for her?

This haunting audio thriller was produced by Best Case Studios, starring Emily Deschanel (Bones) and Ken Leung (Industry).

Short but well written and narrated with a few twists and turns. Helped with boring chores!

A good short listen

I thought it was too short to properly explore what was actually a complex plot

quality of narration

This was a short listen (under 2 hours) but really solid storytelling. I hadn't realised it was Bones until I was about 10 mins in and recognised her voice.
super fun whodunit that leaves your jaw on the floor

a cracking twist

It’s like trying someone is deliberately trying to make as much noise in the background. It made me laugh, although it was irritating. I had a vague idea what was going on in the plot!

Liked the plot and very good twist that I didn't see coming, which is rare! So a good surprise.
