About this listen
A missing actress. A bored writer. A matter of life and death when their stories collide....
Actress Wendy Knight thought her life was finally turning around. But when her ex came back into the picture, he wanted to take all of that away from her and more...and then she disappeared.
Scriptwriter Angie Bearing longs to write something deeper than daytime soaps. When the plot for a new thriller comes to her, she doesn't question it. At least until she discovers an uncanny resemblance between her story and the unsolved disappearance of an actress named Wendy. Angie begins to investigate. As she retraces Wendy's footsteps, she doesn't realize that someone is watching her. Someone who would do anything to keep the awful truth buried for good....
Witness for Wendy is the captivating first book in the Bearing Witness series, a collection of exciting thrillers. If you like surprising twists, edge-of-your-seat suspense, and a touch of the unusual, then you'll love MK Turner's fast-paced mystery.

Well, first of all, it's nothing like Meredith & Hodge, something the author makes very clear from the start. But then, perhaps the world couldn't cope with another John Meredith, haha. The dual timeline in this book is very well executed and easy to follow, unlike some I've read. The characters are nicely fleshed out and either easy to like or easy to loathe, depending which is intended of course.
I'm especially glad that the story is written in the third person which helps it flow and doesn't bloat the pages with the character's innermost thoughts, fears and turmoils. Yes, these emotions are all there and well described but often when told in first person narrative I feel they can sound whiny, self-indulgent and less likeable. For me it's easier to follow the story from outside where the reader/listener can see things the main character can't.
The narrator does a superb job of telling the story and giving life to the characters and is a pleasure to listen to.
The story kept me enthralled from the start and I can't wait to listen to the next in the Bearing Witness series.
I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author and am voluntarily writing an honest and unbiased review.
Exciting start to a series

I loved the way the individual characters were portrayed by the narrator, she did a great job of making them seem real, though some of the male voices sounded very similar (maybe this was part of the subterfuge, as I suspected several of them being "Him")
This was a well written mystery, kept me guessing right up to near the end with the slow drip of revelations and the different timelines (Wendy/Angie) adding just a bit more each time to the story.
Will definitely continue reading the series, and also will look into any other work of the narrator too.
