Prepare yourself for a transformative experience. Sometimes, life's setbacks contain hidden gifts. Here at Lakewood, you'll find the space to unwrap them. A weekend at the Lakewood Retreat is exactly what Chloe Powell needs. Freshly unemployed after her boss loses a reelection campaign, the former press secretary desperately wants a break from the bustle of Washington DC. A flier posted at her yoga studio leads her to the getaway, which looks amazing: organic meals, celebrity testimonials, and a serene private property within driving distance of the city.

It was free, the story was ok. The narration was good the plot a little predictable toward the end.

I’m biased but...

I’m a big John Connolly fan, so much so that I’m always a little bit disappointed when I get to the end of one of his books. It’s a testament to his skill that the reoccurring themes of his writing (extreme violence, central characters named after famous people, serial killers, the supernatural) would usually be enough to put me off immediately but I was strongly recommended Every Dead Thing by a co-worker who I regularly swapped books with in the early 2000’s. Despite my initial reticence I read it and was hooked!
This book was not a disappointment; his recurring central character, PI Charlie Parker (don’t let the name put you off) is drawn into investigating the disappearance of a young girl when he is asked to look into a possible blackmail case of a man living under a new identity. As always elements of the supernatural are weaved into the storyline and the story moves forward at a fast pace, keeping you wanting more. I would strongly recommend.

It’s the most sensational case of the decade. Fifteen-year-old Jessica Silver, heiress to a billion-dollar real estate fortune, vanishes on her way home from school, and her teacher, Bobby Nock, a 25-year-old African American man, is the prime suspect. The subsequent trial taps straight into America’s most pressing preoccupations: race, class, sex, law enforcement, and the lurid sins of the rich and famous.

I gave up.... not for me.
Revisado: 05-02-20
I’m not sure if it was the narrator or the storyline but by chapter 4 I couldn’t have cared less whether they’d let a guilty man go or not so I stopped listening. I found it really irritating at the beginning when the narrator kept mispronouncing one of the character’s names (Belen is a Spanish name and it’s pronounced “Belle-enne”, it doesn’t rhyme with Helen). Maybe a minor detail but that coupled with the funky male impersonations and the pacing of the way it was being read was distracting. By the time it got to predictable plot twist number one, an early whodunnit involving the central character and her estranged love interest, I’d had enough and returned it.
