This one was pretty spooky - I seem to recall listening to something else by this author, but can't say for sure..... quite an interesting twist, with the way the cause of the problems turned out.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
Am putting this into my "Another CD-Only AudioBookBox" for round two! Hope this finds a good home!
I can't remember if I've read any others by Gerritsen or not. Going to try this one tho!
I think I must be turning into a book snob. It seems that these days I can't read a thriller without rolling my eyes & being extremely critical of the plot line. I suppose I just prefer realism & maybe I need to stick to that type of novel. But I do enjoy a good thriller now & then, so I keep coming back to them. But this was another one that just seemed too farfetched to be even mildly believable. It was also fairly formulaic. The "heroine" of the story gets knocked unconscious, put behind the wheel of her car, & pushed into a lake. And surprise, surprise . . . she wakes up, frees herself from the car, & swims to the surface. Besides being totally unrealistic, that's a scene that's been written too many times previously. As a mild consolation, this was an abridged audiobook. As far as abridgments go, it seemed decent enough, but abridgments do tend to miss some of the depth of the story, which probably affected my overall enjoyment of this one.
Putting this one back in BigJohn's box for another round....
