About this audiobook

No. 7 Ocean Drive is a multimillion-dollar beachfront house in the Hamptons, but its beautiful exterior hides a horrific past. This house was the setting for a series of depraved killings that have never been solved. Neglected, empty and rumoured to be cursed, it's known as the Murder House, and locals keep their distance.

Detective Jenna Murphy has moved to the area to escape her troubled past and rehabilitate a career on the rocks. But when a Hollywood power broker and his mistress are found dead in the abandoned Murder House, Jenna becomes involved in a case that at first seems open and shut, but reveals more secrets than she could possibly imagine.

As more bodies surface and Jenna is drawn deeper into the dark history of No. 7, she must risk her own life to expose the truth – before the Murder House claims another victim.

Ratings and reviews

By the end I felt very invested in several of the characters. I loved the ideas, the story. I particularly enjoyed the co-reader format. If done well, this really works, to add colour to the whole experience. Would like to hear more from this pairing. Already a fan of James Patterson and his short, movie like chapters. I was able to visualise the events very clearly, even when the narrators were inter-splicing flashbacks and inner voices. Definitely recommend and will be looking for more like this.

intriguing, captivating, makes you feel scared at times and cry in the end with sympathy Jenna but a happy ending thank goodness. Well written and extremely good narration by everyone. I had it as audio would highly recommend it just ly down an listen and let your mind and imagination show you the pictures.

One of his best. Great twists and turns, very well plotted, propulsive narrative, great!
