I absolutely recommend listening to the audiobook for this one!  January Lavoy and Will Damron are phenomenal!  They really made the characters come to life.  Lucy’s sarcasm and cynical look at life (rightfully so) made me love her so much.  Ben is so smooth and confident.  January did an excellent job portraying Lucy’s pain and growth throughout the story.  Tintera does an excellent job developing each character.  The plot of the story was very interesting and a unique style whodunit thriller.  Doubt is cast upon all of the characters as the Ben investigates the murder of Lucy’s best friend’s death using his podcast.  Everyone in the small Texas town believes that Lucy is the murderer, but Lucy doesn’t remember that night.  I couldn’t put this one down.  I was always reading/listening every chance I had!
