Slow burner
Overall an interesting story, but it's so slow to develop! Vivid descriptions of doing mundane things like turning on a light switch border on painful at times, and then after all that it wraps up really quickly at the end.

A must-have story
Superbly crafted, this is a gripping psychological story that is difficult to put down. Caught up in Chrissie’s unusual amnesia, the reader/listener just has to know what is truth and what is fiction. I can’t believe this is the author’s first book, so superbly enthralling is the plot. Harrowing and terrifying to believe that you might wake daily, knowing nothing of the past life, it makes you question what it is that creates the person you are. The vulnerability from being manipulated and needing to trust what she’s told makes Chrissie a fragile character. Yet she discovers inner strengths that work in her favour. A must-have book!

Excellent Book!
Excellent book! I think it would be better in book version for myself, because I kept wanting to turn over the pages quicker than the narrator was narrating

Real page turner
A brilliantly crafted thriller that you simply just can’t put down. I’ve read this book many times and I always realise new things with each read. Since becoming a mother, I don’t have the time or energy to read so tried this audiobook. It’s a good quality recording although I did find the narrator’s voice a bit boring at times, with limited emotion, and no “character” voices which added to the boring bits. On the whole, a good listen but I will read the book again when I find the time to fully w joy it again.

Slow plotting let's thriller down
The reviews for this book were very good, not just audible listeners, but also national newspapers. This meant I had high expectations. It starts well but over time the lack of pace started to grate. The writing wasn't good enough to make the main character interesting in her own right, and the plot revelations came too slowly. I found myself speeding first to x1.5 and finally x2, which isn't a good sign. The book finally builds some schlocky drama at the end, and I can see why Hollywood thinks it might make a good thriller.

Hard to stop listening
I loved this story it was intriguing and well told. If you like Gone Girl you'll love this. Creepy and thought provoking.
