    About this audiobook

    From TikTok sensation Lloyd Devereux Richards comes the heart-pounding story of FBI agent Christine Prusik as she attempts to unmask a serial killer who leaves a calling card with a terrifying connection to her own haunted past.

    As the chief forensic anthropologist for the FBI’s Chicago field office, Christine Prusik has worked her fair share of bizarre cases. Yet this one trumps them all: a serial killer is strangling young women and dumping their bodies in the steep, forested ravines of southern Indiana.

    With each victim, the killer leaves a calling card: a stone figurine carved like the spirit stones found among the native tribes of Papua New Guinea—the same tribes Prusik worked with a decade earlier while doing field research. The personal nature of the similarity is eerie and, frankly, terrifying; Prusik still carries trauma from her time in the field.

    As the dark details continue to surface, Prusik has to wonder if the connection is real or if her nightmares have finally wormed their way into her waking life.

      The story is good but the narrator has a very odd voice very robotic if that doesn't bother you will enjoy

      Pretty decent. It was a little confusing at times but overall ok. The narrator wasn't the worst I've ever heard but she wasn't great. It was like listening to Carol Brady read a book with zero inflection or emotion.

      unique main character and plot, well written and totally engrossing plus sequel is just as good
    • 4/5
      An unasked for Valentines gift from the wife turned out well. Good paced read about an anxious female FBI agent and a murdering twin. Southern Indiana is the locale. Not really an attempt at a sense of place but good character development and story line. Though it got a little too busy at the end. Almost a 4. No interesting phrases or words to note. A rarity but a good first effort by LDR. Will take a chance on the second one.

      I really enjoyed this murder mystery, well written and keeps you on the edge of your seat
    • 5/5
      Very unique story. Well written and narrated. Its amazing that the author wrote this 10+ years ago and didn5 do well, but after a tik Tok video about it both the video and book went viral. It’s now a best seller!

      Likable characters, a few twists and turns and a quick pace made this a great read. Wish there was a sequel!
