Summary

It started with a rumour. But rumours can be deadly....

In a small town, three mothers wave goodbye to their children at the school gates.

Naomi has lived in Exton Cross since she was born, and she knows everything there is to know about everyone.

Aleema hates it here. It’s been three years, and she’s yet to make a single friend. And she’s sure the other mums whisper about her behind her back.

Kelly is an outsider. New to the town, she arrives with nothing but her son—and a dark secret.

By the end of the school day, one of their children will be missing. And rumours will swirl that one of them is responsible....

Secrets and lies will come to light with devastating consequences in this dark and twisty psychological thriller, perfect for fans of Big Little Lies and Adele Parks.

Could t stop listening

I listen to tonnes of audiobooks while I’m working around the house, and I’ve got really bored lately as none seem to keep me hooked. This one had me so gripped I found myself pressing play at every little ten minute stint I could, and I ended up finishing it in a day. Great performances too
