About this listen
Time seems to unearth even the darkest of secrets....
Mandy Cramer has lived her entire life in a small lakeside town that is divided in two distinct groups: the working class, who live downtown, and the wealthy members of the ultra-exclusive Hawthorne Bluff Club.
Details of the clubs one-hundred year history are scant, as the members are notoriously tight-lipped and the gates remain closed to outsiders. When Mandy accepts a position as a nanny for the club president's children, she discovers more secrets than she ever bargained for.
Murder, lies, and a small town full of suspects will keep you listening to this unputownable mystery.

I take a sip of coffee as I plan my day. My surgeon husband, Cole, slept at work last night, so I had to get the kids ready on my own, again. I can’t complain, though, I’ve loved him ever since we met, long before he became a famous surgeon and the papers started calling him the pride of the hospital. Our latest family photo hangs on the kitchen wall and I remember that day so clearly. Cole screamed at me over nothing, then apologised saying he was stressed at work. My heart pounded with fear, but I plastered a smile on my face for the sake of my children.

Story
#1 Amazon Political Fiction Bestseller The Very Last War plunges listeners into a gripping, relentless, and chillingly plausible tale of a near-future World War III. A pivotal election revives freedom and self-governance in America, sending shockwaves across the globe and rattling four rival powers—European socialists, Chinese communists, Islamic radicals, and avaricious Russian leaders. With dreams of world domination fading, they set aside differences and forge an alliance. Not to simply defeat America, but—with the help of a devastating new weapon—to erase it from the earth.

Something new
I’ve never listened to a book like this one. The storyline was very unique. I feel this is more of a mystery than thriller. It did have some twists and turns. I felt the storyline wrapped up too quickly after all the buildup, but it was still a good read. I enjoyed this book.

Another great feel-good mystery
I adore this author. She has a way of weaving webs that connect in ways you don’t see coming, even as a seasoned thriller reader. The characters are likeable, relatable, and even loveable. This one starts off with a bang, pulled me out of a reading slump! I suggest you check out her other books!
