Summary

THE INCREDIBLY GRIPPING THRILLER FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE PERFECT LIE

*********

In the exclusive gated community of Withered Vale, people's lives appear as perfect as their beautifully manicured lawns. Money, success, privilege - the residents have it all. Life is good.

There's just one problem.

Olive Collins' dead body has been rotting inside number four for the last three months. Her neighbours say they're shocked at the discovery but nobody thought to check on her when she vanished from sight.

The police start to ask questions and the seemingly flawless façade begins to crack. Because, when it comes to Olive's neighbours, it seems each of them has something to hide, something to lose and everything to gain from her death.

Critic reviews

"Sensational...taut and claustrophobic, wickedly plotted and laced with the kind of dark humour that lifts Jo Spain to the top of my reading pile every single time." (Chris Whitaker)

"A slice of suspense." (Sunday Times)

Ok

This book was ok. Entertaining enough. Good premise and well narrated but a few plot holes wide enough to drive a bus through.

Good but tad overlong whodunit

Large cast of suspects for possible murder in gated community - ultimately I got tired of the long drawn out plot . Interesting back stories though and entertaining character's.

Well woven tales

Enjoyed the interlink of tales from different families. Everyone has something to hide.

No idea who done it though.........

Brilliant Book

This has got to be one of the best books I have read or listened to in many years. I highly recommend it. I hope I can find another just as good!

I was hooked early on. The narration is great.

Gripping story cleverly told

Jo Spain tells a great story, revealing the truth in tantalising bits. The narrator was very good, although she couldn't really distinguish between the different characters, as there are so many. Clever twist at the end.
