Faced with horrible suspicions and truths, Rachel must decide which secrets she will keep.

These two lonely souls, whose fates are intertwined, soon feel the unavoidable impact of the price we pay for the things we hide.

It seemed a little sophomoric, but ok

The story would have been far more compelling with an actual voice-talent. While AI is a viable technology, this version was awful. Inflection was totally wrong. It sounded like a 5th grader asked to read aloud in class from a completely unfamiliar text,

Terrible narrator

This story was very interesting and is the only reason why I kept listening. I say that because the AI narrator really was distracting for me. The inflections were much too upbeat for a book of this type.
I'm guessing they went this way to save money, like everyone else, but it's going to color my choices in the future unfortunately But again, the story was very good.
