About this audiobook

A New York Times Bestseller

ā€œA smart, edge-of-your-seat story with plot twists youā€™ll never see coming. Stacy Willinghamā€™s debut will keep you turning pages long past your bedtime.ā€ ā€”Karin Slaughter


When Chloe Davis was twelve, six teenage girls went missing in her small Louisiana town. By the end of the summer, her own father had confessed to the crimes and was put away for life, leaving Chloe and the rest of her family to grapple with the truth and try to move forward while dealing with the aftermath.

Now twenty years later, Chloe is a psychologist in Baton Rouge and getting ready for her wedding. While she finally has a fragile grasp on the happiness sheā€™s worked so hard to achieve, she sometimes feels as out of control of her own life as the troubled teens who are her patients. So when a local teenage girl goes missing, and then another, that terrifying summer comes crashing back. Is she paranoid, seeing parallels from her past that aren't actually there, or for the second time in her life, is Chloe about to unmask a killer?

From debut author Stacy Willingham comes a masterfully done, lyrical thriller, certain to be the launch of an amazing career. A Flicker in the Dark is eerily compelling to the very last page.

I figured out the killer pretty quick, but there were some plot twists that had me changing my mind a few times. It was very well done!

Thrilling exciting and on the edge. At first I didn't know where the story was going and then I was hooked. I can't wait for her next book!

I don't understand the high reviews. Sometimes less is more.
