About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The stunning new psychological suspense from the Sunday Times best-selling author of How to Disappear.

What would you do to protect your family?

Anything.

During a family holiday in Italy, you get an urgent call from your sister. There's been an accident: she hit a man with her car and he's dead. She's overcome with terror - fearing years in a foreign jail away from her child.

She asks for your help. It wasn't her fault, not really. She'd cover for you, so will you do the same for her? But when the police come calling, the lies start. And you each begin to doubt your trust in one another.

What really happened that night? Who is lying to who? Who will be the first to crack?

Ok

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The book started off well, with a good storyline, but drifted into mundane detail of veterinary procedures and an extended plot. The machine gun style narration was also very difficult to listen to at times, so would not purchase another book in future with this narrator.

I enjoyed this story, however, my enjoyment was seriously affected by the really poor narration. It was extremely rushed, not helped much by slowing speed down, and hard to understand as there was also odd intonation so meaning no was lost. Would definitely avoid purchasing another book with this narrator.

Mixed feelings

This is the first audible title that I seriously considered giving up on, due to the narrator. But the story obviously hooked me enough to want to finish. It was an ok book but the narration really did let it down. She sounded bored, and borderline depressed!! Spoke too quickly, mispronounced a few words and didn’t pause enough between characters. Won’t listen to another narrated by her I’m afraid. Will read more by the author though.

Entertaining story terribly narrated

Enjoyed this tale of family loyalty and the impact of murder on relations. Well written and structured. Reading was a little variable, lacking character nuance, and sometimes poorly paced in delivery. Odd pronunciation occasionally eg. Orbagine for Aubergine

Gripping well observed story about family bonds
