Found Object

By: Anne Frasier

Narrated by: Eileen Stevens, Perry Daniels

A journalist begins to question everything she knows about her mother’s murder in a startling novel of suspense by the New York Times bestselling author of The Body Reader.

Culpable in an exposé gone tragically wrong, investigative journalist Jupiter Bellarose takes her boss’s advice: head back to her hometown for a fluff piece and get her world in balance. But in Savannah, the past is waiting.

Twenty years ago Jupiter’s mother, actress and celebrated beauty Marie Nova, was murdered, leaving many in her wake: Jupiter’s father, who has erased memories of his wife’s murder with alcohol. The matriarch of the cosmetics company who helped make Marie a star—and who takes every opportunity to reopen old wounds. Then there’s the fragile cop with blood on his hands, and the killer whose confession no longer seems convincing.

With so many lingering questions, Jupiter must revisit the grisly event that has influenced every decision in her life. Maybe her homecoming will bring closure.

Or maybe the worst is yet to come.

Critic reviews

“[An] unsettling tale of murder, intrigue, and family secrets...Frasier neatly ties up each loose end with plausible answers. Psychological thriller fans will be satisfied.”—Publishers Weekly

This must continue!!

This series is way to good too and!! We need a third and fourth and fifth!!

LOL

Great combination of suspense and humor. A truly fun read with interesting characters to follow. Perhaps a series to come?

1st half =5 stars, 2nd half = 4 stars. Total =4.5

This audiobook had me hooked from the beginning. It was well written with a deeply developed main character with strong supporting characters. In the first half the "history" is explained and the mystery identified. The second half reveals several suspects and scenarios for the mystery. In fact, the alternative explanations are so numerous as to be slightly overwhelming. I still very much enjoyed the ride. It seemed like this could be the set-up for a series. If future episodes are as good, MS Frazier will be one of my favorite authors.

not the best work from this author

it seemed to take a while to get off the ground. But not sure how much of the story was undermined by a lackluster performance.
Nevertheless, I am still eagerly waiting the next book by her. I just hope its a different reader.

Good story and narration!!!

Frasier is a new author to me. This was well written and not predictable. I hated to put it down! And a great narrator!
