Witness

By: Caroline Mitchell

Narrated by: Steve West, Elizabeth Knowelden

To Rebecca it was a brave decision that led to her freedom from domestic abuse. To Solomon it was the ultimate betrayal.

It's been ten years since Rebecca's testimony saw Solomon locked away. Enough time for the nightmares to recede, the nerves to relax; enough time to rebuild her life and put the past behind her.

Then one day a phone rings in her bedroom - but it's not her phone. Solomon has been in her home, and has a very simple message for her: for each of the ten years he has spent in jail, Rebecca must witness a crime. And, to make matters worse, she has to choose the victims.

Fail to respond and you get hurt. Talk to police and you die. Ready to play? You have sixty seconds to decide...

As the crimes grow more severe, the victims closer to home, Rebecca is forced to confront a past she had hoped was gone forever.

thoroughly engaging

I loved this book from page 1. Of course it did help that I also love a Welsh accent. Anyway the story itself was difficult put down. I listened to this book with Audible which made it all the more real to me. Both narrators gave an amazing performance. Near the ending and at the ending were big surprises I did not see coming. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a mystery.

a bit far fetched but well written and suspenseful

definitely a stretch for the plot but so well written it was enjoyable all the same.

Loved the book! Loved the performance!

Where does Witness rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Witness is right up there with the best audio books. I've only listened to about 12 books, but this and another one are my top two.

What did you like best about this story?

This book had such a great roller coaster ride. You just aren't sure what's going to happen until it's happening.

What about Steve West and Elizabeth Knowelden ’s performance did you like?

I liked that there was a man and a woman voice. It's great to have the duo for multiple POVs.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This was a book, I didn't want to end!

Any additional comments?

Just superb!! I can tell you, you will NOT know the ending until you get there!! It’s a shocker! … I was through this book in 3 days! I just gobbled it up.

WOW is all I can say!!

Caroline Mitchell is a great writer. I love here thrillers. They always have endings that you don’t see coming. A great book, I loved listening to it, love the accent of the female narrator 😊

Just okay

Steven West (voice of Solomon) is awesome! The story was just okay. I did like the back and forth I just felt it was a bit unbelievable. The main character was hard to sympathize with.
