Zoe is an interior designer with a unique sense of style. But even more uncanny is her sense of what's going on under the surface, the secrets a house can hold. At the moment, though, Zoe isn't concerned about a client's space. She's more worried about what's going on in her own house in Whispering Springs, Arizona, where she lives with her new husband, private investigator Ethan Truax.

Decades ago in the small town of Fogg Lake, The Incident occurred: an explosion in the cave system that released unknown gases. The residents slept for two days. When they woke up they discovered that things had changed - they had changed. Some started having visions. Others heard ominous voices. And then, scientists from a mysterious government agency arrived. Determined not to become research subjects of strange experiments, the residents of Fogg Lake blamed their "hallucinations" on food poisoning, and the story worked. Now the eerie effects are showing up in Fogg Lake descendants.

Another win for Amanda Quick fans!
I'm really liking this Burning Cove series, at least I hope it will be a series and not just two books. Set in the 30s in a small California town called Burning Cove, close enough to LA that its more upscale hotels and clubs attract the Hollywood heavy hitters. Both books have started with the story of a young woman who has to flee for her life and create herself anew to survive. This was the Golden Age of cinema, with the escapism of watching beautiful and wealthy people living exciting and romantic lives being an antidote to the grimness of real, Depression era life for the average American.
The Other Lady Vanishes (and you don't find out the meaning/significance of the title until very nearly the end of the book...and it's a good one) begins with a young woman whose husband had her committed to an insane asylum where she was forced to be a test subject for a halucinogenic drug being developed there, while her husband looted her considerable inheritance to save his own family's business. All very melodramatic and convoluted and so perfectly right that it would have been a smash as a film in that era.
I've been reading Jayne Ann Krentz, in all her guises, for many years. In fact, she was one of only two fairly atypical "romance" authors that I serendipitously discovered while shopping for romance books to send to a friend in England. The other was Jennifer Crusie. I loved both their books on first reading and was soon buying everything by either of them I could find. Fortunately, JAK has been prolific and reliable for all these years. If you're not sure about this new series, give it a try, keeping in mine the era and what made a good story then, and now. I'd love to see either of these books (The Girl Who Knew Too Much was the other) made into films. They each have several strong female characters and men who will love them and protect them, if ever they should need protection. They're pretty successful of surviving even very dangerous situations through quick thinking and the courage to keep going. Really, really great reads/listens. And, incidentally, this reader, Nina Alvamar, is very much better than the one for the first book.

Love Amanda Quick but...
I should have read this one since the narrator ruined the story for me. Even though I got all the way to the end it was a real slog. Save your credit buy the book.

I wish there were 2 narrators. Nina does a good job with the female voices, but the male voices are the downfall of the recording. I can’t get into the story because of this. Overall, it is a good book.

to be honest the leading man was a bit dull, but the heroin made up for that. She was strong and resourceful. she was kind and most importantly not stupidity stubborn or whinny. the plot was a bit predictable towards the end but still told well. I liked this book and highly recommend it.

Okayish
An old fashioned style murder mystery, damsel in distress thing, with all the usual elements, but some unexpected spicy bits that seemed not to really belong here. Starts out good but begins to drag with too much talk, talk, talk to tie it all up. The narrator gets less annoying as she warms to the task. Okay if you want to fill in some lazy time but not really a ‘page turner’ at any stretch. This author hopefully improved with so many novels to her name.
