Publisher's summary

The gripping new Audible Original from queen of suspense K. L. Slater.

When the call came it seemed like the answer to my prayers.

My career as a voice actor had been over for months and me and my little girl Scarlet were living back at my mum’s place. I felt like a failure professionally—and with Scarlet having problems at school, as a parent as well.

So, when I was asked to narrate a new book by disappeared novelist Philippa Roberts I jumped at the chance, even if it meant leaving Scarlet with my ex, Hugo, for a few weeks. Hugo, with his perfect new home and his perfect new girlfriend Saskia.

But this isn’t a dream come true. It’s a nightmare.

There’s something hidden in the pages of this book, I’m sure of it. Some clue to Philippa’s disappearance. And I don’t feel safe. I’m being watched. My room has been searched. Saskia has been calling me in tears. If I don’t find answers fast I’ll lose more than my second chance.

I’ll lose my daughter.

A breath-taking new thriller from the number one author of The Marriage and The Widow. If you like Gone Girl, The Girl on The Train and The Wife Between Us then you will love The Narrator.

KL Slater never disappoints

Very interesting premise and insight into the world of publishing and audiobook creation. Of course the writing is excellent and keeps your attention. I finished it in a weekend. Couldn’t put it down.

Highly recommend this book and give it 5 stars!

In "The Narrator," K.L. Slater presents a gripping tale with a surprising twist at the end. The narrator's ability to bring various voices to life adds depth to the already well-crafted story. The twists and turns keep the reader on the edge of their seat, and the ending is both satisfying and surprising. Overall, "The Narrator" is a must-read for fans of psychological thrillers. Slater's ability to create well-crafted and multi-dimensional characters is impressive, and the story is suspenseful and thought-provoking. I highly recommend this book.

Nice and Light

A quick listen that is light and airy - with enough “umph” to want me to keep driving to listen to more. Loved the performance!
