The ornate reading room at the Boston Public Library is quiet—until the tranquility is shattered by a woman’s terrified scream. Security guards take charge immediately, instructing everyone inside to stay put until the threat is identified and contained. While they wait for the all-clear, four strangers, who’d happened to sit at the same table, pass the time in conversation, and friendships are struck. Each has his or her own reasons for being in the reading room that morning—it just happens that one is a murderer.

Best-selling Australian crime author, Hannah Tigone, is crafting a novel set in the Boston Public Library. As she write this story, about these four people who were brought together by that scream, the reader also reads chapters from another source. Hannah is sharing each chapter with one of her readers, a man named Leo. As he reads each chapter he makes corrections and give critiques, but as the chapter go on, we realize that Leo knows a lot about murder and he may be slightly unhinged.

Narrated by Katherine Littrell, who does an absolutely amazing job. This story within a story is deftly written and absolutely riveting and her narration adds to the secret sauce that makes this story so good. In fact, this could have been a really confusing book to listen to, but Katherine Littrell’s inflections and accents made the characters easily identifiable and I was able to follow the story and enjoy the journey. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
