A Kate Wise Mystery, Book 1

By: Blake Pierce

Narrated by: Laura Bannister

If She Knew (A Kate Wise Mystery) is audiobook number one in a new psychological thriller series by best-selling author Blake Pierce.

Fifty-five-year-old empty nester - and freshly retired FBI agent - Kate Wise finds herself drawn out of her quiet suburban life when her friend’s daughter is murdered in a home invasion - and she is implored to help.

Kate thought she left the FBI behind after 30 years as their top agent, respected for her brilliant mind, tough street skills, and her uncanny ability to hunt down serial killers. Yet Kate, bored with the quiet town, at a crossroads in life, is summoned by a friend she can’t turn down.

As Kate hunts the killer, she soon finds herself at the forefront of a manhunt as more bodies turn up - all suburban moms in perfect marriages - and it becomes apparent there is a serial killer stalking this quiet town. She unearths secrets from her neighbors she wishes she never knew, discovering that all is not what it seems in this picture of model streets and neighbors. Affairs and lying are rampant, and Kate must sift through the town’s underbelly if she will stop the killer from striking again.

But this killer is one step ahead of her, and it may end up being Kate who is in danger.

An action-packed thriller with heart-pounding suspense, If She Knew is audiobook number one in a riveting new series that will leave you listening late into the night.

Audiobook number two in the Kate Wise Mystery series is coming soon!

Great First Audiobook!

This is my first audiobook I ever got and I love it. I was worried I'd have a hard time remembering it but it was quite easy. Captivating as well.

Not recommended.

Not a fan of the narrator’s whispery phonation rather than a clear tone to her voice. She also carefully enunciates every word for the listener, which slows down the natural pace and flow of the story. The story itself is just okay, very basic and uncomplicated, with nothing new or exciting to offer the reader. Not recommended.

Who is the killer?! Pulled in trying to see who it could have been.

I enjoyed the whole book. I was pulled in when multiple murders were committed in the same circle of women.

If She Knew

I enjoyed the storyline, but the narration seemed a bit slow, so I'm not really sure about this one.

One dimensional narration

I love a good murder mystery; especially when its difficult to put all the pieces together. Unfortunately the narration irritated me so much that it was hard to continue. She reads as though always whispering and fails to represent characters with unique voices.
