Will Patton reads it. You should read it too :) The Outsider by Stephen King, Narrated by Will Patton Unabridged Audiobook   Released May 2018, 18+ Hours Amazon  ♦  Goodreads An unspeakable crime.

Hmmm, perhaps I was expecting too much. Cross Her Heart by Sarah Pinborough Dark Fiction Released September 2018 Amazon  |  Goodreads  | Better World Books Lisa lives for her daughter Ava, her job, and her best friend Marilyn, but when a handsome client shows an interest in her, Lisa starts daydreaming about sharing her life with him too. Maybe she’s ready now. Maybe she can trust again. Maybe it's time to let her terrifying secret past go. Then her daughter rescues a boy from drowning and their pictures are all over the news for everyone to see. Lisa's world explodes, and she finds everything she has built threatened. Not knowing whom she can trust, it's up to her to face her past to save what she holds dear. My Thoughts: Behind Her Eyes by this same author was a five star read for me (and yep, I LOVED that ending) but this one was not. I’m giving it a three and that makes me sad because I was so looking forward to another amazingly nasty little ...
