Finally successful and happy, but then Faith’s life fell apart. One of her teenage clients accused her of sexual assault, her husband, Liam, disappears and then is found dead with a gunshot to the head. She knows she is a suspect because she was the last one to see him alive. But...what about all the things Liam did like taking out a large sum of cash, taking his passport, and leaving a cryptic email that was to go to no one in particular but could have been for any number of people. Many things happen that have Faith questioning what really happened and how it happened. Then one day Faith opened her mailbox and found something unexpected - actually shocking. It was a page torn out of the book she wrote giving advice about safety. These pages kept showing up in random places. Just what is going on? The only good thing is that the things that are happening should take the focus off of Faith as a suspect in her husband’s death. SOMEONE'S LISTENING is filled with twists and pretty much unlikable characters that have bad habits. You will be confused about everything happening just like the main character, but that is what makes SOMEONE'S LISTENING a good read. The book has a slow buildup, but an edge-of-your-seat ending as it all comes together and the stalker/murderer gets his plan to completion. 4/5 This book was given to me by the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

The author grabbed me and didn't let go. I kept guessing as the characters were introduced, and yes, I guess wrong. I got blindsided! Old boyfriend, odd lady that was put out of business because of a review, business associate, former patient, the list goes on. Who wants our girl Faith, author, Phycologist, and now widow, dead? At times I wondered if she would actually kill herself, and how she even functioned. A woman whom as a child was horribly abused and raised by dysfunctional parents, was living the good life, as a successful practice and now a book, along with a blissfully happy marriage. Talk about hitting rock bottom, and trying to survive, we walk in Faith's shoes with her, and wonder if in the end she will be alive. A stunning thriller mystery that will keep you up late page turning. I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Harlequin, and was not required to give a positive review.
