All the Dangerous Things

Following up her instant New York Times bestseller, A Flicker in the Dark, Stacy Willingham delivers a totally gripping thriller about a desperate mother with a troubled past in All the Dangerous Things.

 

One year ago, Isabelle Drake's life changed forever: her toddler son, Mason, was taken out of his crib in the middle of the night while she and her husband were asleep in the next room. With little evidence and few leads for the police to chase, the case quickly went cold. However, Isabelle cannot rest until Mason is returned to her—literally.

 

Except for the occasional catnap or small blackout where she loses track of time, she hasn’t slept in a year.

 

Isabelle's entire existence now revolves around finding him, but she knows she can’t go on this way forever. In hopes of jarring loose a new witness or buried clue, she agrees to be interviewed by a true-crime podcaster—but his interest in Isabelle's past makes her nervous. His incessant questioning paired with her severe insomnia has brought up uncomfortable memories from her own childhood, making Isabelle start to doubt her recollection of the night of Mason’s disappearance, as well as second-guess who she can trust... including herself. But she is determined to figure out the truth no matter where it leads.

What a fun ride! While I did guess some of the big reveals early on, there were enough twists to keep me engaged and surprised. And the narrator did a fantastic job.

If you're looking for a good, twisty domestic thriller, give this one a try. I enjoyed the shit out of this book!

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for a copy of the audiobook.

I liked the way the book pushed us to doubt the narrator (even tho I sensed Ben's bad vibes already). Solid thriller and ending. Hope Waylon and Isabelle stay close<3

I got psychological whiplash from this one! The setting is beautifully written, and it definitely adds to the suspense.

I loved this book! A slow beginning but it was securely worth it my only complaint would be the overuse of similes throughout the book. I loved learning more about the characters through all the twists and turns of the book!
