An Instant New York Times Bestseller

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Banker's Wife, worlds collide when an FBI agent investigates a string of grisly murders on Long Island that raises the impossible question: What happens when the primary suspect is your father?

FBI Agent Nell Flynn hasn't been home in ten years. Nell and her father, Homicide Detective Martin Flynn, have never had much of a relationship. And Suffolk County will always be awash in memories of her mother, Marisol, who was murdered when Nell was just seven.

When Martin Flynn dies in a motorcycle accident, Nell returns to the house she grew up in so that she can spread her father's ashes and close his estate. At the behest of her father's partner, Detective Lee Davis, Nell becomes involved in an investigation into the murders of two young women in Suffolk County. The further Nell digs, the more likely it seems to her that her father should be the prime suspect--and that his friends on the police force are covering his tracks. Plagued by doubts about her mother's murder--and her own role in exonerating her father in that case--Nell can't help but ask questions about who killed Ria Ruiz and Adriana Marques and why. But she may not like the answers she finds--not just about those she loves, but about herself.

A good listen

Contrary to other reviews-I had no problem with the narrator. A little choppy but I got a kind of tomboyish effect from it. Nothing is totally clear until the end-which I always prefer. I would recommend.

Entertaining mystery

I enjoyed the characters for the most part and figuring out who did what easy listen

Intriguing storyline

Enjoyed the characters, but Lee came across as too much of a softie. Also, the ending was rushed, as if everything had to happen in the last few minutes. Some unexpected twists in the end.

Mind blowing

I couldn’t stop listening. There are so many plot twists just when you think you have it solved. I really enjoyed it!

Most listen

This is a really good book and the ending has a crazy twist. The narrator did a great job with reading.
