HOME IS WHERE THE BODIES ARE

This stellar cast of narrators captures the temperament of each character in this mystery. When Beth's mother dies, her last words are a warning: "Don't trust . . ." Beth is left grieving and wondering whom not to trust. Then her estranged brother and sister return home for the first time since their father's unexpected disappearance years ago. The story flows quickly as the three siblings' varied points of view alternate with their mother's old journal entries. The characters are easy to differentiate. After the discovery of a disturbing VHS tape from 1999, the tense and bitter dynamic between the siblings builds, leading to a big twist. With its '90s nostalgia, characters listeners will love to hate, and realistic dialogue, this is a guaranteed bingeable mystery. M.I.C. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2024]
