The Photo

By: A J McDine

Narrated by: Tamsin Kennard

I thought he was dead. Until I saw him staring back at me…

Ten years have passed since my beloved sister was murdered, leaving behind her sweet five-year-old daughter, Lily.

I’m trying my best to care for Lily and salvage what’s left of our shattered family. I promised to keep her safe after all she’s been through, and after a lot of challenges, I hope she might be starting to lead a normal life again.

But then I see a face in a photo I took just yesterday that turns my blood to ice.

I tell myself it can’t be him, but I know in my gut it is. The man my sister married. The man who killed her. The man I thought was dead…

A totally gripping psychological thriller filled with jaw-dropping twists. Fans of Freida McFadden, Claire McGowan and Lisa Jewell will be utterly gripped!

Good read

Intriguing storyline with captivating ending; very entertaining throughout course of audiobook and read well from audio standpoint

Loved the Photo

I didn’t like the ending. The killer came out of nowhere! The story was so good up until the last chapter. AJ McDine should not have introduced a new suspect.

Couldn’t stop listening and you’ll never see it coming.

One of the best listens in a while and I listen a lot….lol. Has an amazing flow so it never drags. Has some good twists and turns. But the very end blew me away!!! That’s a twist I truly never saw coming!!

4 stars

The Photo by A.J. McDine starts off strong, and I excitedly thought it might be my first 5-star read in quite some time. However, Lara's habit of jumping to conclusions without any evidence is my biggest pet peeve in books. While I predicted the first twist early on, the second one left me happily shocked! This is why I ultimately rated it 4 stars.

Tamsin Kennard still ranks as queen narrator to me!

Very engaging

This is a really good story though Lara is such a colossal moron at times. I know readers have a leg up on the character in the moment but my goodness this woman was frustrating at times lol. But narration was excellent and the story was engaging throughout. I preferred the ending before the final chapter though
