The Girl Before: A Novel Free Audiobook Download by Jp Delaney

"The Girl Before" is narrated by three characters, two of whom are police officers. They are best friends who have grown up in a small town and were both adopted as children. They come from different backgrounds, but they share an interest in crime and mystery magazines, which is how they decide to start investigating the disappearance of a woman named Anna. The victim's relationship with her boyfriend, who is also missing for most of the novel, lends emotional depth to the story.

"The Girl Before" is a taut psychological thriller that takes us deep into the mind of a mother who has chosen to be childless, and her twisted version of what she perceives as 'successful motherhood'. It begins as we meet Joanna Wells, a successful 40-year-old Manhattan lawyer. As she's about to complete her three-year maternity leave after delivering her daughter Emilia, she decides that all her time was not enough to raise a healthy, happy, intelligent daughter. She's convinced Emilia will grow up just like her mother - narcissistic and self-centered - so she decides to abort Emilia before giving birth.

In this riveting thriller, the life of a woman who has been held in captivity since childhood is brought to light when she escapes with nothing but the clothes on her back. In a desperate search for answers, she winds up looking for her past through a new friendship as well as one-night stand.

A gripping page-turner of a psychological thriller, The Girl Before is not just a book that should be on your radar but it should be high up there as well. The Girl Before is the story of Emma, set before she’s abducted and imprisoned for seven years in captivity.

"A missing girl. A diary. A desperate mother. A detective who won't quit." This audiobook is the perfect way to spend a summer's day with this fast-paced thriller. Follow the story of Emma, an intelligent young woman struggling with memories that won't stay buried.
