The narrators are well matched to the characters and settings, and bring the suspenseful plots to life.… A standout is "The Ex-Wives Club" by Sally Hepworth, performed by Anthea Greco, who voices women of all ages. The stories have multiple layers, unexpected twists, and performances that will keep listeners engaged from start to finish.”—AudioFile Magazine

Great stories!

This was a group of very entertaining stories in my favorite genre: thriller! I liked some more than others but overall a great listen!

Pretty Good

I enjoyed 4 out of 6 of these. My favorite was Good Neighbor as I felt like it had an actual ending and didn't end so quickly like some of the others. Didn't care for Death Row at all and I'm disappointed in that bc I love Freida McFadden. Loved that they were all short stories! I listened to one book a day. I'll definitely be interested in another Alibi Series.

Crazy and satisfying!

Man I was hooked by the first book. I could definitely listen again! Oh wait I already did. Great short listens and so intriguing. Wonderful job by these wonderful authors.

All good

Loved all the stories! Would love more like this. Well narrated too. Will read more from these authors.

Ok

I felt that the Freida story was the best. The rest were either bad or OK . Definitely was not worth a whole credit. Glad I decided to $5.99.
