About this listen
In her stunning 200th novel, #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts proves why no one is better when it comes to flawlessly fusing high-stakes suspense with red-hot romance" (Booklist, starred review).
Daughter of a cold, controlling mother and an anonymous donor, studious, obedient Elizabeth Fitch finally let loose one night, drinking too much at a nightclub and allowing a strange man’s seductive Russian accent to lure her to a house on Lake Shore Drive.
Twelve years later, the woman now known as Abigail Lowery lives alone on the outskirts of a small town in the Ozarks. A freelance security systems designer, her own protection is supplemented by a fierce dog and an assortment of firearms. She keeps to herself, saying little, revealing nothing. Unfortunately, that seems to be the quickest way to get attention in a tiny southern town.
The mystery of Abigail Lowery and her sharp mind, secretive nature and unromantic viewpoint intrigues local police chief Brooks Gleason, on both a personal and professional level. And while he suspects that Abigail needs protection from something, Gleason is accustomed to two-bit troublemakers, not the powerful and dangerous men who are about to have him in their sights.
And Abigail Lowery, who has built a life based on security and self-control, is at risk of losing both.

Rich detail, too much romance and a hurried finish
If you could sum up The Witness [Brilliance Audio Edition] in three words, what would they be?
Unusual story with well developed main character.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
The ending came too fast for me, like too many novels do. I would have like to have seen Roberts develop and intertwine some more story lines thru the main story. There was not too much predictability which kept it interesting.
Which scene did you most enjoy?
Initially slow to unfold, however the story began to settle and the reader was rewarded with a well balanced account of the main characters situation.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No. No crying. Occasionally laughed out loud.
Any additional comments?
Nora Roberts; sometimes predictable, always enjoyable. . . though I have to say I’m a bit romance novel burnt out after this read.
The narrator was brilliant!!!!

Taut, & engrossing
The Witness is ultimately a story of hope, written against a gritty background of greed, power and entitlement. I found it difficult to put down until I found out how it ends.
