About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The new heart-pounding novel from Sunday Times best-selling author Claire Douglas.

It was the house of their dreams. Until the bodies were found....

Bodies found under patio.

When pregnant Saffron Cutler moves into 9 Skelton Place with boyfriend Tom and sets about renovations, the last thing she expects is builders uncovering a body - two bodies, in fact.

Police investigate.

Forensics indicate the bodies have been buried at least 30 years. Nothing Saffy need worry herself over. Until the police launch a murder investigation and ask to speak to the cottage's former owner - her grandmother, Rose.

Owner questioned.

Rose is in a care home, and Alzheimer's means her memory is increasingly confused. She can't help the police, but it is clear she remembers something.

A killer at large?

As Rose's fragmented memories resurface and the police dig ever deeper, Saffy fears she and the cottage are being watched.

What happened 30 years ago?

Why did no one miss the victims?

What part did her grandmother play?

And is Saffy now in danger?

The characters are realistic: flawed and human, not two-dimensional creations. I feel as though I have spent time at the cottage and in their company.

It is definitely a book that I will re-read. Loved it.

I liked the story a lot. The narration was generally great, but the word “little” was used a lot, but Nathalie Buscombe always seemed to be saying “lickle” like she was talking to a small child

Nice long listen

I never leave book reviews but this book really deserves one. Don't hesitate just purchase this, you won't be disappointed. The story is fantastic, I found myself gasping out loud in parts! Such a well written and well narrated book. If I could have listened to this in one go I would have. I hope you enjoy as much as I did!

Amazing doesn't quite cut it!
