About this listen

Former homicide detective Nicole Foster has hit rock bottom. Driven off the force by her treacherous partner and lover, she's flat broke and struggling with a gambling addiction. All Nicole has left is the dream of a warm bed at a homeless shelter and the haunting memories of three-year-old Kelsey Chase—whose murder case ended her career.

As Nicole obsesses over the old facts, she realizes everything about that case felt off: a disinterested mom, a suicidal pedophile, and too many questions left unanswered. When the little girl's grieving father begs Nicole for help, she's drawn back into the investigation...and given one shot at redemption.

But the deeper Nicole digs, the more evil she uncovers, including betrayals that hit painfully close to home. Will a shocking discovery be the key to finally getting justice for Kelsey and resurrecting her own life?

I really enjoyed this story. I did feel sorry for the main character. Few unexpected twists in the book. Excellent narration. I would recommend this story to suspense readers.💕😮💖😮

Wow!!!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Very dense twisting plot with a heroine who is her worst enemy or so she thinks. Good narration

More twist than a hurricane

Whilst I enjoyed the slow unravelling of the plot and the sensitive nuances when describing Nicole's fall from grace and addiction problems, the narrator (whilst doing a good job with the general narration) was somewhat distracting ... all her male character voices sounded like werewolves from horror movies ... she adopted a very unpleasant raspy growling voice when delivering their dialogue which was unsettling and rather annoying. However, overall I would recommended this book.

Rather enjoyable slow burn plot

How the heck did she become a detective? Didn't know wot was right under her nose.Not a good plot at all.

Long and drawn out

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