Bestseller Clark (
Dancing in the Dark) delivers another well-crafted thriller. When Caroline Enright, a 34-year-old film and drama critic for TV's
KEY to America morning show, lands an assignment to cover the Warrenstown, Mass., theater festival, she anticipates combining it with a getaway with her new husband, Nick, and a chance to bond with her aloof 20-year-old stepdaughter, Meg, who's an apprentice at the festival. The last thing Caroline expects as she leaves New York City for the scenic Berkshires is that she'll have to draw on her journalistic skills to unveil a ruthless murderer. With only six months of broadcast experience under her belt, Caroline has a lot to prove with the piece she has planned about Oscar-winning actress Belinda Winthrop, who's starring in a production of a new play rumored to be a contender for a Pulitzer Prize. But when Belinda mysteriously disappears, Caroline launches herself into an investigation—and finds Meg's life and her own in danger. With fresh characters, an idyllic setting and plot twists that will grip readers until the suspenseful resolution, Clark's latest is sure to be a summer hit.

From AudioFile
Critic Caroline Enright looks forward to interviewing her favorite movie star and reporting on the opening night of a hot new play. But anticipation turns to dread as murders stack up in a small summer theater community. Isabel Keating presents a competent and transparent rendition of the crime drama, imparting believability to both heroes and villains of both genders. Her renditions of Caroline's two cameramen deserve special note for their comedic timing and accents. Keating keeps the plot moving at a brisk pace, and her subtle shadings of voice avoid giving away the killer's identity too soon. This will keep listeners wide awake on a long drive.
