After Nightfall

By: A. J. Banner

Narrated by: Teri Schnaubelt

From the bestselling author of The Good Neighbor comes a gripping thriller about an engagement party gone fatally awry.

Imagine your closest friend utterly betraying you. Years later, when she seeks forgiveness, you invite her to your engagement party as a gesture of reconciliation. But seething hostilities rise to the surface, ruining everyone’s evening. After an awful night, your friend’s battered, lifeless body is found at the bottom of a rocky cliff.

Newly engaged Marissa Parlette is living this nightmare. She should be celebrating her upcoming wedding, but she can’t shake the image of her friend lying dead on the beach. Did she fall? Was she pushed? Or did she take a purposeful step into darkness? Desperate for answers, Marissa digs deep into the events of the party. But what she remembers happening after nightfall now carries sinister implications: the ugly sniping, the clandestine meetings, the drunken flirtations. The more she investigates, the more she questions everything she thought she knew about her friends, the man she once trusted, and even herself.

Bestselling author A. J. Banner keeps readers on a razor-sharp edge in this intricately plotted novel of psychological suspense...in which nothing is as it seems.

The ending

Great story. Couldn’t stop listening, but….THE ENDING! I need to know more! So many questions.

Meh

The performance makes me uninterested in the book. I made it to about 2 minutes.

Book was ok

The book was not bad but the main character was often infuriating, at least to me, with regards to her assumptions and ways of thinking. I did like the surprise ending though, it's never who you think it is.

Great Book, kept me interested until the end

great book, didn't lose interest or figure out the twist way beforehand. I would recommend the book.

Twisty goodness!

The writing was a little lacking. I got tired of hearing “it’s a long story” while I listened to this audiobook. But it kept me guessing till the very end- an excellent trait in a thriller. I can’t say I liked many of the characters at all, but that’s ok, too. Melissa was a great lead and her narrative and persistence were excellent.
Id recommend this to anyone interested in speech therapy, murder mystery, family drama, and medical reading (nursing, first responders, doctors alike).
Trigger warning for abusive relationships, FYI.
