About this audiobook
Gudenkauf proves herself the master of the smart, suspenseful small-town thriller that gets right under your skin.” —Gilly Macmillan, New York Times bestselling author of The Nanny
Everyone has a secret they’ll do anything to hide…
Twenty-five years ago, the body of sixteen-year-old Eve Knox was found in the caves near her home in small-town Grotto, Iowa—discovered by her best friend, Maggie, and her sister, Nola. There were a handful of suspects, including her boyfriend, Nick, but without sufficient evidence the case ultimately went cold.
For decades Maggie was haunted by Eve’s death and that horrible night. Now a detective in Grotto, and seven months pregnant, she is thrust back into the past when a new piece of evidence surfaces and the case is reopened. As Maggie investigates and reexamines the clues, secrets about what really happened begin to emerge. But someone in town knows more than they’re letting on, and they’ll stop at nothing to keep the truth buried deep.
Don’t miss Heather’s upcoming twisty locked-room thriller, EVERYONE IS WATCHING!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Really liked this book. Keep you guessing through out the book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Some of this could have been left out- the intentional euthanasia of the horse and crude dissection of the dog Nola absolutely killed (I don’t believe she happened upon a freshly dead dog in a cave)- but it was infuriating at times. Not the worst.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Compelling characters, strong storyline and deliciously suspenseful. I really enjoyed it.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Enjoyed the story. Good twist. Narrator did a great job. Definitely preferred Not a Sound by the same author-still a very enjoyable listen.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Really good book! Love Heather's work!! Can't wait to start the next one
