None Shall Sleep

By: Ellie Marney

Narrated by: Christine Lakin, Maxwell Hamilton, Zach Villa, Jake Abel

The Silence of the Lambs meets Sadie in this riveting psychological thriller about two teenagers teaming up with the FBI to track down juvenile serial killers.

In 1982, two teenagers -- serial killer survivor Emma Lewis and US Marshal candidate Travis Bell -- are recruited by the FBI to interview convicted juvenile killers and provide insight and advice on cold cases. From the start, Emma and Travis develop a quick friendship, gaining information from juvenile murderers that even the FBI can't crack. But when the team is called in to give advice on an active case -- a serial killer who exclusively hunts teenagers -- things begin to unravel. Working against the clock, they must turn to one of the country's most notorious incarcerated murderers for help: teenage sociopath Simon Gutmunsson.

Despite Travis's objections, Emma becomes the conduit between Simon and the FBI team. But while Simon seems to be giving them the information they need to save lives, he's an expert manipulator playing a very long game . . . and he has his sights set on Emma.

Captivating, harrowing, and chilling, None Shall Sleep is an all-too-timely exploration of not only the monsters that live among us, but also the monsters that live inside us.

fantastic book!

omg I loved this book! the readers did so well I recommend it to everyone!

Riveting — Silence of the Lambs but YA !

Enjoyed this one thoroughly. Very good pacing. Appreciated the diversity of the characters. Looking forward to the sequel!

The story was great but the audio made it so much better!

I loved the different voices of the characters especially Simon, Bell, and the butcher. It added so much color to the story.

Decent narration

Honestly this was just ok. It’s basically a temu version of Silence of The Lambs. Obviously some differences but just felt to much like a copycat to me and not near as good as Silence of The Lambs.

A bit unbelievable

Overall, the idea of the story was pretty good, but the further into it it got the more unrealistic and unbelievable it became. There’s just simply no way higher-ups in the FBI would put up with teenage kids disobeying orders every turn.
