First Chapter Fun – Episode 329 – THOSE EMPTY EYES by Charlie Donlea
Listen to bestselling, award-winning crime author Hank Phillippi Ryan read the description and opening pages of THOSE EMPTY EYES by Charlie Donlea, which is out now!
About THOSE EMPTY EYES: Alex Armstrong has changed everything about herself—her name, her appearance, her backstory. She’s no longer the terrified teenager a rapt audience saw on television, emerging in handcuffs from the quiet suburban home the night her family was massacred. That image of Alex, wide-eyed and terrified, circulated around the country until the tabloid-created girl named Empty Eyes replaced the teenaged girl Alex had once been. Accused of the killings, Alex fought to clear her name and eventually took the stand during her highly publicized trial that captured the attention of the nation.
Now, ten years later and fully exonerated, true crime fanatics still believe Alex was the one who pulled the trigger the night her parents and brother were killed, and they’ll stop at nothing to track her down. While the freaks and geeks wait for a damning piece of evidence to materialize that will finally prove that Empty Eyes killed her family, Alex is the only one looking for the truth. And she finds it in the unlikeliest of places—smack dab in the middle of the brand-new life she has created for herself.
About the author: Charlie Donlea is the #1 internationally bestselling author of seven thrillers. Praised for his "soaring pace, teasing plot twists" (BookPage) and talent for writing an ending that "makes your jaw drop" (The New York Times Book Review), Donlea has been called a "bold new writer...on his way to becoming a major figure in the world of suspense" (Publishers Weekly). A late bloomer, he was twenty years old when he read his first novel, THE FIRM by John Grisham, and knew he would someday write thrillers. His books have now been translated into twenty languages across nearly forty countries. He was born and raised in Chicago, where he continues to live with his wife and two children.
