About this listen
From the internationally bestselling author of I Am Not Who You Think I Am—a New York Times Thriller of the Year—comes Lilith, an incendiary powerhouse of a novel that strikes straight at the wounded heart of America.
Mother. Hero. Villain. Killer.
After her son, Lydan, suffers traumatic injuries in a school shooting, single mom Elisabeth Ross grows enraged at men in power. If they won’t do anything to help end this epidemic of violence, she will. Believing it’s her destiny, she sets out to awaken the world to the cowards these men are and commits her own shocking act of violence.
Going by the name Lilith—the first wife of Adam who fled Eden rather than serve a man—she posts a video of her crime that reverberates throughout society.
Praised by some, demonized by others, and hunted by the FBI and vigilantes alike, Elisabeth must keep her identity a secret as she tries to care for her son.
As events take startling twists, Elisabeth begins to question her act of violence and the very roots and mythology of violence itself. Was her act justified, or has she become the monster that the original Lilith was accused of being?
As the FBI draws closer and Lydan starts to display odd, terrifying behavior, Elisabeth plots to avoid capture and keep her son safe at all costs, fearing she’ll never escape what she’s done without losing her son forever.
Written with Rickstad’s singular command of language, human insight, and unnerving suspense, Lilith is a tale of our times. Tragic and profound, it echoes in the mind and lingers in the blood.

Story
Most people have heard of the Celts - the elusive, ancient tribal people who resided in present-day England, Ireland, Scotland and France. Paradoxically characterized as both barbaric and innocent, the Celts appeal to the modern world as a symbol of a bygone era, a world destroyed by the ambition of empire and the spread of Christianity throughout Western Europe. Despite the pervasive cultural and literary influence of the Celts, shockingly little is known of their way of life and beliefs, because very few records of their stories exist.

Coincidence is an excuse that soon appears pretty unconvincing. Sarah can’t leave until she’s found the answers to her questions, however dangerous they might turn out to be.

No proof that Rebecca didn’t simply abandon her marriage. Just Sally’s crude and chilling drawings, Jonah’s little lies, and the sheriff’s nagging fears that nothing is what it seems. For Sally’s best friend, Lucinda, it’s something else. She trusts Sally not to just disappear, not after they’ve shared so many secrets - especially about the woods and what they saw there. But she’ll never tell. No one would believe her anyway.

Story
Lindbergh’s Pharmacy is an Athens, Georgia, institution—the type of beloved mom and pop shop that once dotted every American town but has mostly disappeared. But Lindbergh’s has recently become the object of attention of a local fourth grade teacher Tina Lamm (“Ms. Lamm to my students”). Tina is certain something very, very bad is happening behind its famous black door and she intends to do something about it. Her suspicions—and the drastic actions she plans—are the unlikely glue that will connect her to a group of six employees and customers inside the pharmacy one hot Georgia evening.

Great story and dilemma
The story and narrative are both great. It’s a good story with an interesting philosophic debate about right and wrong. The audio version was terrific. I’m glad it didn’t go longer, though. I can see how this story could have been dragged out, but it wouldn’t have added much more.

All my flabbers were gasted
I could not put this book down—literally! I picked it up at 3 p.m., and by 1 a.m., I had devoured every page. The story was that gripping. Each page turn had me on the edge of my seat, with the suspense building in ways that made every moment feel visceral and intense. Even the formatting of the words on the page seemed to amplify the stress of pivotal scenes, immersing me deeper into the story’s tension.
The plot powerfully critiques the "establishment," whose disregard for the sheer horror and life-altering impact of the events on the characters left me stunned and heartbroken. It was so intense, I made the mistake of reading it in public and found myself in tears at the bar! The writing itself is brilliant, masterfully pulling you into every moment and making each twist feel immediate and personal.
I wholeheartedly recommend Lilith to anyone drawn to suspenseful and intense stories. Just a note—heed the trigger warnings. They are all valid and give a glimpse into the emotional depths and challenges this book explores. Enjoy the ride!

Tension!
This book was awesome. It’s not like one of those books where u are just screaming at the characters to make some obvious choice the whole time. The characters ar real enough, the story was solid, and the message was cleanly portrayed. I do wish there were more scene with “Lilith”, but what can you do? I think every American should read this.

Wish is had ended differently
I had trouble rating this book. I wanted to be sure it was the content and not the visceral reaction I had to the first half. That’s when I realized I liked the first half, but the end left me wanting. The conclusion was a bit half baked.
