In Hayder's (Gone) latest, Caffery is still obsessed by some of the events described in previous series installments, but he must also take on a new case involving mysterious deaths at a local psychiatric hospital and the mistaken release of an inmate who may have been involved in the deaths. AJ LeGrande, the head psychiatric nurse, provides an alternate point of view and helps drive the story. Steven Crossley is at the top of his profession as reader and lets the characters shine through without distraction.
VERDICT Listeners new to the series may want to start at the beginning; otherwise, highly recommended. ["Hayder's latest installment in the Jack Caffrey series…is a creepy, twisty thrill ride that never stops and will give you the shivers if you dare to read this at night. This is another winner," read the starred review of the Atlantic hc, LJ 5/15/13.—Ed.]
