The Lonely Dead

By: April Henry

Narrated by: Piper Goodeve

A killer is on the loose, and only one girl has the power to find him. But in this genre-bending YA thriller, she must first manage to avoid becoming a target herself.

For Adele, the dead aren't really dead. She can see them and even talk to them. But she's spent years denying her gift. When she encounters her ex-best friend Tori in a shallow grave in the woods and realizes that Tori is actually dead - that gift turns into a curse. Without an alibi, Adele becomes the prime suspect in Tori's murder. She must work with Tori's ghost to find the real killer. But what if the killer finds Adele first?

In The Lonely Dead, master mystery-writer April Henry adds a chilling paranormal twist to this incredibly suspenseful young adult novel.

Spellbinding

April Henry is an amazing author. Every book I’ve listened to has made me fall in love more and more with her writing! Each story is well developed, thought provoking and entertaining from beginning to end!

The way they had the character plotted out

Solving mystery of how someone is murdered and communicating to the deceased is really how it kept me guessing on who was the murderer.

Good story line

I found the Story interesting. I found the main character fascinating. I frankly wish it was longer.

Great

I love how much of a mystery this is. I don’t like how long the the chapters are but that’s okay because the story is great.

Paranormal Who Done It

Enjoyed the story and the narration was well done. I thought I had the mystery figured out, but wasn’t certain until the last few chapters. Overall easy to listen to. Would definitely be interested in a second book - or even a series with the main characters.
