Final Truth

By: Mariah Stewart

Narrated by: Anna Fields

True-crime writer Regan Landry has followed several explosive stories but none more challenging than that of convict Lester Barnes, a rapist and murderer, who persuades the intrepid author to reinvestigate his case. When Regan and FBI Special Agent Mitch Peyton oblige, they discover a startling number of irregularities, including a crucial DNA mismatch. Their vigorous efforts secure Barnes' parole.

Shortly after his release, however, the ex-con vanishes, and a month later, a series of nightmarish, sexually motivated slayings plagues North Carolina's Outer Banks. Fearing the unthinkable, Mitch, Regan, and the FBI sweep in to confront the unspeakable: the horrifying possibility that they have set free a monster with an insatiable appetite for death and a ruthless determination to never again be caged.

Critic reviews

"Regan's charm and the novel's fast pace will keep readers turning the pages." (Publishers Weekly)

Keeps Ya Guessin'

Although this was not a "saga," it nonetheless held my attention and made me wonder whether what we think is the truth really is. Enjoyable for a mystery that is not too deep but still holds the reader's attention.

Love it!

I love Mariah Stewart and I love Anna Fields. I have read all the reviews for the "Truth" series; maybe people find Anna Fields difficult to listen to. I disagree - I love her from Barbara Holloway stories(Kate Wilhelm). This series is worth listening to!

Good Story- Poor Narration

The story was fine. It kept me interested. The narrator had a pleasant voice when she spoke as a female character. She sounded like a drunk cowboy whenever she did a male voice. It was horrible!

Narrator

Unfortunately I could not get past the narrator and the many horrendous voices she was affecting to pay attention to the plot. I am not sure what she was going for but the men sounded like functional idiots and her awful intonation just overshadowed the plot.
