EYE OF THE BEHOLDER

Jane Collingwood keeps listeners in Hitchcockian suspense with this new thriller set in the world of antiaging, beauty, and murder most foul. Ghostwriter Maddy Wight understands the need to be discreet about her clients, but her latest one, Dr. Angela Reynolds, brings new meaning to the word "secrecy." Left alone to write at Reynolds's massive estate in the Scottish Highlands, Maddy finds herself falling in love with Reynolds's seemingly emotionally unstable business partner, Scott. Maddy is crushed when she hears of Scott's death--until she sees him exiting a Tube station in London. Jane Collingwood deftly moves between English, Scottish, and American accents, creating believable characters. Collingwood's performance captures the confusion and frustration of Maddy's quest for the truth. V.B. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2024]
