About this listen
'Compelling' Observer
With her trademark flair, precision eye for detail and acerbic wit, Caroline Kepnes brings the suspense thriller to a whole new level with PROVIDENCE – a dark story of death, loss, horror, redemption and the love that binds us all.
In 2008, 13-year-old Jon Bronson disappears on his morning walk to school. After even his parents give him up for dead, only his best friend, Chloe, remains certain that he would come back.
Four years later, Jon returns with no memory of anything after the day he disappeared. But something’s different about him. His presence seems to cause spontaneous nose-bleeds in those around him. When he hugs his father, the older man passes out. The family dog disappears.
Jon’s only clue to his missing four years is the battered book left behind by the man he believes abducted him. And he and Chloe are determined to figure out what happened to Jon… before his presence does more than cause a couple of bloody noses. They’re sure they can solve the mystery and save Jon.
But this is a Caroline Kepnes novel. You know that the worst is yet to come.
'The Netflix adaptation of Caroline Kepnes’ thriller You starts in December. The book is GREATNESS' Lucy Mangan
*** PRAISE FOR CAROLINE KEPNES ***
'Intense and deeply disturbing, You is a dark story told in a fresh voice, and an addictive read from beginning to end... Both a thrill and a nightmare, and yet I didn't want to wake up' Jennifer Hillier, author of THE BUTCHER on YOU
'Both original and compelling. If you only read one new thriller this year, make it this one. It will stay with you long after you have put it down' Daily Mail on YOU
'Hypnotic and scary...never read anything quite like it' Stephen King on YOU
'I am RIVETED, AGHAST, AROUSED, you name it. The rare instance when prose and plot are equally delicious' Lena Dunham on YOU
'YOU is superb. So funny, apart from anything else, and properly clever. It is: different, hot' Sophie Hannah on YOU
'I can’t remember the last time I felt so guilty for enjoying a book so much' S Magazine on HIDDEN BODIES
'There’s something deeply insidious about the storytelling of Caroline Kepnes. As satire of a self-absorbed society, Kepnes hits the mark, cuts deep, and twists the knife' Entertainment Weekly on HIDDEN BODIES
'So brilliant, we reckon it’s invented its own genre: hipster thriller, anyone?' Glamour on HIDDEN BODIES©2018 Caroline Kepnes (P)2018 Simon & Schuster UK

Confused
I don’t know how to rate this book … it was very well written because it’s the style of Caroline K but I have so many questions like what did the guy do to that kid and how does it really end cause there isn’t a HEAT or even HFN it’s just sad

A wonderful listen.
After reading Caroline Kepnes two other books "You" and "Hidden bodies", I was very excited to listen to her third. Whilst very different from her other work this was just as captivating. The narration is wonderful and the story is pacy and engaging. Caroline Kepnes has fast become one of my favourite authors and I could listen to any of the three narrators reading the telephone book :D

Young adult superpower book
Wouldn’t really say this book is for adults more a teenagers book. Very different from her other books. Good narrators

Literally one of the most pointless books ever
I liked the summary enough to sample the audio. I didn't mind the sample even though it really gave no insight to the actual story, which makes sense after listening to the entire book. It absolutely makes no sense. It's a lot of repetitive ramblings with no real conclusion. The "love story" felt forced and the super natural element was clearly unresearched and unfocused. This book kept me from purchasing "You" and "Hidden Bodies" that's how awful it was. But after seeing the Netflix series "You" I've decided to give "Hidden Bodies" a chance. Hope it's not a waste of a credit.
