BONE MUSIC The Burning Girl Series, Book 1

A woman who endured an unthinkable abduction tries to move on with her life. But she finds herself being used as prey by a rogue agent for a company's experimental drug. Narrator Lauren Ezzo captures the many tense moments throughout the audiobook as protagonist Charlotte Rowe chases a serial killer with the help of a family friend, Marty, and Luke, a bully turned cop. Ezzo's best voice is for Marty, who has a consistent slight twang. She also does well with minor characters, including Luke's boss, a stern sheriff, and the controlled CEO of the company. But her best skill is keeping up with the story's pace, which includes many emotional buildups in assorted chase scenes. This first in a new series is a psychological thriller, to be sure.
