About this listen

How far will you go to protect your child? A superb Sunday Times number one best seller from the author of Six Years.

Tia and Mike Baye never imagined they'd become the type of overprotective parents who spy on their kids. But their 16-year-old son Adam has been unusually distant lately, and after the suicide of his classmate Spencer, they can't help but worry. They install a sophisticated spy program on Adam's computer, and within days, they are jolted by a message from an unknown correspondent addressed to their son: 'Just stay quiet and all safe.'

Meanwhile, browsing through an online memorial for Spencer, Betsy Hill is struck by a photo that appears to have been taken on the night of her son's death and he wasn't alone. She thinks it is Adam Baye, standing just outside the camera's range, but when Adam goes missing, it soon becomes clear that something deep and sinister has infected their community....

Hmmm

Very difficult to get into. Narration was difficult to follow with some characters but ultimately it was an acceptable story.

Great Story, terrible narration

I really enjoyed the story but did have trouble keeping up with who was who.
The narration was like someone who hadn’t been reading for long, it was stilted and didn’t flow well, but I’ve heard worse….once, hence the lack of two stars for performance

Great Story - Horrible Narration

Very poor narration which destroys a great story. Should come with a warning not to drive while listening to this story as it actually puts one to sleep. Due to the narrator it was very difficult to follow the story lines. Monotoned Monotonous voice.

Another Coben twister

As always a great Coben story. But I’m afraid I agree with other reviewers that I prefer Weber as a narrator. Or how about Richard Armitage?

Another fabulous story but terribly narrated.

Unfortunately it’s almost impossible to listen to this audiobook. The narrator sounds like he’s recently learnt to read on the way he sounds like a lot of the words. It’s odd as it’s not all the time. It makes for very jarring listening of what seems like another great Coben story.

Narration an issue

Story as good as ever from this authors stable but the narration was a disappointment with very incorrect and unconvincing intonation. Also, the production often sounded if it was recorded during a rain shower in a garden shed with little sound-proofing - such a shame

I love Harlan Cobin books but by audio I found this hard to keep track of. sorry but the narrator was so lifeless.
