On a cold, windswept night, Fiona arrives on a tiny, isolated island in Orkney. She accepted her old friend's invitation with some trepidation - her relationship with Madison has never been plain sailing. But as she approaches Madison's cottage, she sees that the windows are dark. The place has been stripped bare. No one knows where Madison has gone.

As Fiona tries to find out where Madison has vanished to, she begins to unravel a web of lies. Madison didn't live the life she claimed to, and now Fiona's own life is in danger . . .

Critic reviews

I read it almost in one sitting. It's so good, such a wonderfully evocative setting and a plot that drives through as relentlessly as that Orkney rain. I love how she completely conveys the world of the archaeological dig, and her characters are so carefully drawn, so that you never quite know who to like, who to trust - very clever. It's totally compulsive (Sabine Durrant)
A masterclass in tension, coupled with the most atmospheric of settings
A gripping, atmospheric and dark thriller
Extremely gripping . . . a cleverly observed book about female friendship
Included in 'This Week's Hot Read'

Praise for Dear Amy
A terrific, tricky premise and the suspense thriller readers hope for - a tense plot, imaginative twists, and smart writing
An accomplished psychological twister

thoroughly enjoyed it! . narration was good and fitted the characters which is rare! couldn't wait till the end and not as i predicted. only slight criticism is i feel that the 'baddies' demise was a little far fetched.

intense and keeps you guessing.

I really loved "Dear Amy" and "Everything Is Lies" and not sure how I did not notice this latest thriller by Helen Callaghan and have it in my pre-orders but just found it recently and was put off getting it because of some of the negative reviews - which now after reading I find totally unfounded as I loved this thriller.

It has been a long while since I read either of Helen Callaghan's other books in my library, I just remember them as being enthralling, so beautifully written and superb thrillers with so many plot twists and turns and in that way this third book certainly does not disappoint,

I loved the wild Scottish setting, the archaeological theme and all the characters and their backstories. It really kept me guessing right up until the end and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a really well written and thought out intriguing thriller. Excellent!

Looking forward so much to the next one.

I bought this after enjoying two other books by Helen Callaghan: "Dear Amy, which was brilliant, and "Everything is Lies" which was also pretty good. This particular book, unfortunately, is not. It gets off to a great start, but soon settles down to long stretches of dull rather stilted and unnatural dialogue. It had a tendency to send me to sleep. The ending was a little better, but not much. I did like the date and location stamps at the start of each chapter so I always knew where I was. I also liked the setting of an archaeological dig on Orkney. Reminded me of the Shetland books by Ann Cleeves.

Not her best

Absolutely brilliant, really tense and atmospheric, so evocative of the setting and its subject matter.

Brilliant audiobook!
