Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

I was hooked from the get-go. Virtual Voice's narration is excellent, perfectly pacing the story and bringing the characters to life. The use of Burke's own words adds a chilling authenticity to the tale. However, I found some of the transitions between timelines a touch jarring at times. But that's a minor quibble in an otherwise gripping listen. This isn't just a true crime story; it's a cautionary tale about the dangers of strangers and the power of community in solving mysteries. A must-listen for fans of true crime and suspense.
