I am such a fan of this series. It fills that Mary Higgins Clark place in my heart from childhood but with a more modern take. I love the podcast vibe! Some parts were a bit predictable but overall I really enjoyed the pacing and short chapters. I will definitely read all the books in this series, can’t wait for the next one!

Thank you to NetGalley, St. Martin’s Press, and the author for sharing this ARC with me in exchange for my honest feedback!

If you’re into true crime podcasts, serial killers, and the insanity of social media influencers, this is the book for you!

Rachel Krall is a talented journalist turned podcaster. Her latest podcast put her in the spotlight when she solved a murder and now she’s become a household name. Her new story begins with a call from law enforcement at a Florida prison.

A man in jail for breaking and entering has served his time and is getting out in two days time. This man is also a suspect in a string of murders, but there isn’t enough evidence tying him to the crimes. Weirdly enough, a young woman named Madison who makes a living as a van-life travel influencer, comes to visit him and Rachel Krall’s name comes up. And the next day, Madison goes missing.

Rachel Krall gets thrown into the case and figures out pretty quickly that her life might be in danger. Once this man gets out of prison, will he come for her next?

In Dark Corners, you’ve got a podcaster trying to find the truth, a missing persons investigation, an over the top social media influencer conference that somehow gets intertwined with the case, and a predator on the loose.

I enjoyed reading this book and I would definitely recommend it to a friend. I was looking for a huge reveal or plot twist, but unfortunately I was a little underwhelmed and could see it all coming before it happened. Even still, Megan Goldin is a wonderful writer and she does great characterization and creates a fast-paced plot. Once you pick it up, you’ll be dying to know how it all ends!

I was so excited for another book with Rachel Krall! I loved the podcaster in the first book & this time she is helping the FBI look for a missing influencer. This book was full of twists & turns! I loved the podcast, influencer & true crime in this book.

I am admittedly a big Megan Goldin fan as well as a big Rachel Krall fan and this book did not disappoint. I couldn't put this one down and finished in two settings - would've been one if work hadn't gotten in the way! Even on my busiest day, I was still finding time to pick this one up.

I feel like Goldin did a great job of continuing to develop Rachel's character, this time in the lens of basically strangers, and I loved getting to see her personality a little more. She seems so normal - someone I'd know and love in real life and I loved the tension that built with some of the new characters we met. This was one of the most "classic" thrillers I have read in awhile, and it almost felt nostalgic. I also want to say that I can't wait for book 3 and I hope that Agent Martinez makes another appearance - I'm hoping for more development in their relationship!

Thanks, NetGalley, Macmillan Audio, and St. Martin's Press, for the Digital Review Copy and Advanced Listening Copy.

“Rachel Krall, the true crime podcaster star of Megan Goldin’s acclaimed Night Swim, returns to search for a popular social media influencer who disappeared after visiting a suspected serial killer.” (GoodReads)

This was a decent thriller, but I wasn’t compelled to read it, didn’t connect to any of the characters, and I was a little confused by the ending. The audio performance was good, with Desz delivering the third-person narrative and LaVoy delivering Rachel's podcasts.

I’m counting it as read because I made it over 50%. But then I actually DNF’d. everything on the book synopsis happens in the first 100 pages and then I was just bored. Disappointing.

My greatest regret is that I didn’t read this book sooner. This book build suspense and quite the arc to draw the reader in to follow the story. It was so well done! I highly recommend reading this.

Megan Goldin never disappoints! I have greatly enjoyed her other books and this as no different. Twisty and kept me guessing. Main character is the same as the Night Swim. I almost would say I enjoyed this second book in the series better than the first. More Please!

This was my first book to read by this author but it won't be my last! This was a beautifully written novel that evokes so many emotions and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Don't miss out on this one!

After reading several books in a row that took real effort to become absorbed in the story, what a relief to read Dark Corners, the newest Rachel Krall book by author Megan Goldin! This story immediately had me captivated, and I couldn't wait to be able to return to it and see what happens next!

The plot is twisty and too hard to summarize here, but suffice it to say that you will not be able to put down this book until the mystery is solved in the final pages!

Thank you to Megan Goldin, St. Martin's Press, and NetGalley for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I loved this story and all the twists! Told partly in a podcast and the rest in present day life the reader is thrown into the world of social media influencers and a desperate race to keep a suspected killer from being released from prison. The title is perfect and has several meanings in the story. Once I started reading this book I didn’t want to put it down!

I unfortunately wrote no spoilers for Dark Corners, so I don't remember as much as I should. If anyone took notes and wants to write a guest blog post, please let me know 😅

I am thrilled that Megan Goldin decided to turn The Night Swim into a series. While I did prefer the first book, Dark Corners is fast-paced with plenty of twists to keep the reader interested. There are a lot of different threads, but the ending pulls everything together well and I was satisfied by the reveal. I enjoy books with podcast and influencer elements, so this was a fun read.

This is a fast paced and entertaining thriller with 2 POVs, the MC, our true crime podcaster Rachel, and our villain. Rachel also started in Night Swi, but this can be read as a standalone since the podcast identity is really about all they have in common. There were some repetitive and weirdly worded phrases, but if you're looking for entertainment, not literary writing, this might be the quick read for you.

I really like this author and her books. Dark corners was a read that I found hard to put down and had a satisfying ending. Definitely recommend!

If you loved “The Night Swim” like I did then you’ll love this second book featuring Rachel Krall, podcast host extraordinaire. It’s a quick, clean read that gives your brain something to consider.

I LOVED this book!! I am kind of obsessed with books including podcasts and this one was amazing!!! I really loved how Megan added the insane world of social media to this book... it was so good. and the twist was even more crazy!! I think Megan Goldin is becoming one of my favorite thriller authors. I cant wait to read more from her !!

After reading The Nigh Swim and rating it 5 stars, I was thrilled to receive a copy of Dark Corners. I devoured this one in a day. I hope this author continues this series because I need more. Can't recommend this one enough.

I love everything Megan Goldin writes she is amazing and has the best plot twists. I always felt the twist and suspense.

Megan Goldin’s Rachel Krall Series has had me on the edge of my seat and I can’t get enough!

In this latest installment, Dark Corners, Rachel gets pulled into an FBI investigation into a potential serial killer. Can she solve the case before anyone else gets killed...or she becomes a target?

I love the format of the books with bits of podcast woven in to give you more pieces of information and background on the case and suspects.

I'm not going to tell you anything more about the story itself because you need to watch it all unfold on the page to get the full effect, but I will say you're not going to want to miss this one.

When a vivacious, young influencer suddenly disappears in the wake of a harden criminal being released, police ask for assistance from Rachel Krall, a well-known podcaster. Although Bailey was only serving time for breaking and entering, he was greatly suspected of murdering several women. When Rachel gets to town to join BuzzCon, the influencer conference, another woman is found murdered. The most telling thing is a tattoo she has. . . one that Rachel saw when she visited Bailey in prison. Does he have someone on the outside helping him and neither man has been caught in these terrible murders? Can they find the connection before any other women are murdered?
