About this listen

From the author of the New York Times best seller and 2014 Edgar and Anthony nominee Reconstructing Amelia comes another harrowing, gripping novel that marries psychological suspense with an emotionally powerful story about a community struggling with the consequences of a devastating discovery.

At the end of a long winter in well-to-do Ridgedale, New Jersey, the body of an infant is discovered in the woods near the town's prestigious university campus. No one knows who the baby is or how her body ended up out there. But there is no shortage of opinions.

When freelance journalist and recent Ridgedale transplant Molly Anderson is unexpectedly called upon to cover the story for the Ridgedale Reader, it's a risk, given the severe depression that followed the loss of her own baby. But the bigger threat comes when Molly unearths some of Ridgedale's darkest secrets, including a string of unreported sexual assaults going back 20 years. Meanwhile Sandy, a high-school dropout, searches for her volatile and now missing mother, and PTA president Barbara struggles to help her young son, who's suddenly having disturbing outbursts.

Told from the perspectives of Molly, Barbara, and Sandy, Kimberly McCreight's taut and profoundly moving novel unwinds the tangled truth about the baby's death, revealing that these three women have far more in common than they realized. That the very worst crimes are committed against those we love. And that - sooner or later - the past catches up to all of us.

Bad narration

I can't finish this book. The narrator for Molly is too annoying. Maybe I'll finish on my kindle. This is a waste of a credit.

Kind of confusing in the beginning but get good later on

Its a good story but I got a bit confused because the story is told by multiple characters and at different times. Bus as soon as I got into the style it was enjoyable

I can't stop thinking about this book! Haunting!

What did you like best about this story?

I bought this as a daily deal and didn't pay much for it. I was sucked in pretty quickly to the lives and lies of all the people in this average town. The main character is fine enough to follow, but the best part is all the ways lives intersect. Also all the secrets make it impossible to stop listening. I actually had to hide in a hammock at the cabin and finish the last few hours.

Now that it is over, I am still haunted by it. I am still thinking of the characters and wanting more.
I will say, I might have enjoyed it because I am a female that loves the relationships the people have. My husband half listened to it and wasn't as into it as I was.His loss!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Everyone has secrets!

I enjoyed this -

Any additional comments?

The narration was solid, and the writing was strong and centered - not wandering around in the pucker brush and tripping over itself. However, it took a while for this book to get up and running. It got better as it went on; the split characterization worked here, giving a rounded and satisfying picture of a town and crime, and I found that there were some moments of real suspense.I cared about these characters, I liked them, and I wanted to know what happened to them. There were times when the story fell a bit into cliche - and it was a bit 'Johnny One Note' - we seem to be in an era of Dead Baby books at the moment. Nor was the 'twist' at the end a twist, since it was pretty obvious - and that's become a cliche in itself in any case. (I wish publishers and editors would STOP insisting authors stick twists onto the end of plots, if it works generically, it works. If it's cooked up, it feels like pin the tail on the donkey...and you can always tell.) All that having been said, there was much to like here.

Fantastic

The initial description sounded much more morbid than it is. Great intricate mystery. The narration is great.

Good story ... well read

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book as an 'escape' book. Not too deep, but a good story to take your mind of other matters. I enjoyed the ride and was surprised by the ending.

Interesting well crafted story that came together in the

It started a little slow and some of the characters were slightly one dimensional. However, the subplots all tied in nicely in the end and the twists and turns were surprising yet believable which is a big positive in mysteries.
