That day, all her calls to him go straight to voice mail; the messages she leaves at his office go unreturned, too. Panicking after finally receiving a call from his cell phone in which all she can hear is a man’s terrified cry, Isabel calls the police. But they aren’t interested. Men leave, they tell her. Desperate to find her husband, Isabel races to his office. But instead of finding him, she finds herself in the middle of an FBI raid. Hours later, she awakens in the hospital with a severe concussion and a homicide detective by her bedside waiting to question her about Marcus Raine–the real Marcus Raine.

Bestselling author Isabel Raine's perfect life is turned upside down when her husband of five years mysteriously disappears. She soon discovers that everything about him is a lie, including his name. Ann Marie Lee is a consummate narrator of novels driven by female characters. A gifted performer, she uses her vocal talents to convey a diverse range of emotions. Her pitch is ideal for audiobook narration, and her melancholy tone further enhances her wonderful performance of this work. Lee is also adept at adding catches and quivers to her voice during emotionally charged scenes. Although her male voices are a bit weaker, her female voices and delivery of narrative are so strong that she is an accomplished storyteller. A.R.H. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine -

Thriller author Unger's intriguing if overstuffed stand-alone introduces a tough and grudgingly vulnerable heroine who will stop at nothing to uncover the truth, even if it threatens to tear apart her life. Isabel Connelly, a bestselling novelist, and her loving husband, Marcus Raine, a computer game designer, have it all, including an elegant prewar apartment on Manhattan's Upper West Side. When Marcus doesn't come home one night, Isabel goes to his office, where she's confronted by a dozen people with weapons drawn. Det. Grady Crowe later informs Isabel that not only is her husband missing but he's been lying about his past, having stolen the real Marcus Raine's identity years earlier. Despite a text from Marcus urging her to forget about him, Isabel vows to track him down. Usually adept at juggling multiple plot lines, Unger (Black Out
) dilutes Isabel's story with point-of-view shifts and unnecessary subplots, including one about Crowe's marital woes.
