Ever since her sister unexpectedly ended her own life, Felicia has found solace in volunteering for a suicide hotline. However, when Felicia takes a call from a teenager who’s been sexually assaulted, that solace quickly turns to suspicion as she realizes that the girl attends the same school as her son and was attacked at a party he attended. Torn between finding the truth and uncovering something unspeakable, Felicia must decide where her loyalties lie. Berry (Keep Your Friends Close) crafts a complex, compelling thriller. Former Criminal Minds star A.J. Cook, as Felicia, gives a performance fraught with emotion and intensity, while Tessa Albertson makes brief but affecting appearances as Chloe during her phone calls with the suicide hotline. These exchanges feature an effect that makes Chloe sound as though she is actually on the other end of a call, plus audio enhancements such as ringtones and ambient background noise.
VERDICT Will appeal to listeners seeking a short but nerve-wracking psychological thriller about crimes that hit too close to home. Recommended for fans of Joy Fielding and Kiersten Modglin.
