Why read it?
1 author picked Evil Eye as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Madhuri Shekar’s groundbreaking psychological thriller helped show new ways that audiobooks could plunge listeners into a story. I’m sure I wasn’t the only author who took note. Evil Eye follows a mother who immigrated to the U.S. from India as she prepares to accept her daughter’s partner into the family. But she is troubled by an old crime.

That meticulously constructed delivery heightens the suspense as we discover how trauma can span oceans and overlap generations.
From Luke's list on crime stories you can only listen to as audiobooks.
