- content: Filled with unexpected twists and a cast of well-developed characters, this audiobook is an engaging listen. Twenty years ago, four friends traveling on the Devil's Corridor in southwest England get into a car accident. Three go missing afterward and are never found. The survivor, Olivia, has remained out of the spotlight since then. In the present day, journalist Jenna Halliday arrives to reinvestigate the accident. Joanne Froggatt voices Jenna as determined and compassionate, even when she's faced with threats. Clare Corbett voices Olivia as secretive but ultimately resolute. Their chapters alternate with occasional chapters focused on a group of friends in Thailand. As all the parts of the story come together, the pacing of the narrators perfectly matches the building tension and ultimate reveals. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine

It's 1999 in Southwest England. After a night out drinking, Olivia Rutherford drives three friends home through the Devil's Corridor, a stretch of road rumored to be the site of strange happenings. Startled by a man in the street, Olivia veers off the road and crashes. She awakens, badly injured but alive, only to find that her friends are gone. Twenty years later, journalist Jenna Halliday is starting an investigative podcast about the disappearance of the girls, hoping that the interviews will turn up new clues. Jenna makes her way to Wilshire, a small village in the UK, where every person she meets has something to hide. Alternating between Olivia's and Jenna's perspectives, voiced by Claire Corbett and Joanne Frogatt respectively, each chapter adds a layer to the mystery. Listeners will be eager for more and may be shocked to find out how the pieces fit together. The audio's greatest strength is Frogatt's narration, which provides a realistic portrayal of the journalist balancing work with personal struggles. VERDICT Douglas's (The Couple at Number 9) rural winter setting creates an eerie sense of place. Great for readers looking for a captivating mystery with big reveals.--Meghan Bouffard
