Really good and enjoyable for what it is

This is a collection of stories in which the main characters are connected, but you could listen to any of the short stories in any order without confusion. I understand why some reviews state dislike of this, as it is not one flowing, cohesive storyline, but it is really good and enjoyable for what it is.
I selected this listen for something that would allow my thoughts to drift occasionally and not get too lost, while simultaneously not allowing those thoughts to drift too far or too long. This is a great listen when you are looking for something interesting but where you won't get too attached to any of the characters. (For me personally, it was great for helping me stay focused while getting things done around the house.)
Performance was great, and the transition music kind of reminded me of the Oracle series by Andrew Pyper/narrated by Joshua Jackson.
Overall, recommend as a light listen.

This was a great book, very informative and very detailed. I would definitely recommend, though be aware that the sex crimes are described in detail enough appropriate to get across the depth of evil of this individual, and the 911 call from one of the survivors of his crimes is recounted word for word in the first person. Knowing these things I still would have listened to this book, though I would have much rather been prepared for them beforehand, and so wanted to give others the heads up.

Really enjoyable listen! (Though ends with a mild cliffhanger.)
I really liked this production, the storyline was interesting and both detailed and face paced, and the narrators were all wonderful. I would definitely listen to a continuation of the story should they ever do one.

A little bummed. I've been a fan of James Patterson since I was younger and started the Maximum Ride books (the first three), and have read a great many of his books since then. This one, regrettably, did not catch my interest at all. If you are into football, or storylines being told from the perspective of a giant ***** (many expletive nouns would easily fit there, so take your pick), then perhaps you will like it. And, hopefully, the rest of the actual book is better than this except. I do not own to devote any more time to it to find out though.

So very badly wish these were longer! This series and the concepts it sets forth are very intriguing, and the writing and narration are superb! I couldn't put it down, but simultaneously was dismayed when I'd finished the book in one go. Hope there will be another!

For me, the book seemed to start out a little slow, but after having read such good reviews of it I hung on, and am glad that I did. Both the book and the narration were very good. There were times when I wasn't entirely sure if the main character was speaking aloud to those around her, or if she was just thinking to herself, so some parts were momentarily mildly confusing, but now enough to distract from good, solid content of the storyline. Recommend.

Loved this book! Started it in the morning and enjoyed it so much that I stayed up until about 2am to finish it straight through. The premise was very interesting, and the narrator was great for this role. I also love when they bounce between different characters' perspectives, which Coben did here, and did so well (3 seperate characters, I believe).
Have been wanting to read/listen to Harlan Coben's books for a while now, and it definitely lived up to the praise he's received!
Fully recommend

This narrator + author team are wonderful. They completely immerse you in the storyline, and make it very difficult to pause the book at all. I have listened to books on Audible that I may have enjoyed had I sat down and read them, but the narrators just made me cringe. Bethany Pressley, however, does a superb job maintaining unique and consistent (and genuine-sounding) voices for all of the characters, giving them each their own cadence, and keeps the story moving. If crime novels are your genre, then 100% recommend.

This was a captivating, gripping, twisted read, and I am eager to begin the sequel. The narrator was wonderful and made the characters easily distinguishable from one another, with all of them sounding believable (often when there are multiple characters, at least one ends up sounding a little amusing, but not from this narrator). This book definitely kept my rapt attention right until the very end, a little twist which I did not at all predict coming. This book was, again, twisted, but exciting, and kept me up later than intended as there were many points where I could just not stop listening. Highly recommend!

This was an easy listen, and I finished it while doing other things within a few days time. It was an interesting enough story, but did not hold my rapt attention, and if I zoned out a little I could still follow the premise just fine.

The narrator was alright, definitely a few times where I cringed at how she placed emphasis on certain words/sentences, making them come off much differently than I think I would have read to myself, but I do listen at a speed of 1.3, 1.4, so it could have been affected by that.

Over a book I wanted to listen through to the end, but also one which I was happy was included with Audible membership and not a credit spent.
