About this listen

From Michael Peterson of TV’s Bones comes another twisted murder mystery that takes place in the small town of Jakob’s Point, where there are more members from the Witness Protection Program than anywhere else in America. When the Federal Marshal, the only person who knows the true identities of the residents of the town, turns up dead, and his records are destroyed, FBI Special Agent Alice Wheaton gets swept up in the investigation. In Jakob’s Point, where everyone is a witness, and everyone is a suspect, Alice must use her secret weapon – forensic listening – to find the killer. As she probes, she’s compelled to confront her own unresolved past trauma. Can Alice uncover the truth in a town full of lies? And can she do it before the killer comes for her?

This haunting audio thriller was produced by Best Case Studios, starring Emily Deschanel (Bones) and Ken Leung (Industry).

I love when professional actors do voice parts for audiobooks etc.. The story is great. Good flow, no sop. Acting is natural and easy to listen to. Short and sweet.

Great story. Fabulous cast.

The Twist

If you never watched Bones you will probably enjoy this. If you’ve watched Bones, you may find it a tad irritating. Emily Deschanel is playing an FBI agent but her manner and speech patterns are Temperance Brennan. It’s quite a good story I guess, a bit obvious. Personally I’m disappointed, but it was a free listen so nothing lost.

Unoriginal characters
