About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin

From the number one best-selling author of The Family Upstairs and The Night She Disappeared comes an engrossing, twisty tale of betrayal when an outsider is accused of murder.

You don't see her, but she sees you.

MIDNIGHT. In the bad part of town, where cats prowl and foxes shriek, a girl is watching...

When Saffyre Maddox was ten, something terrible happened, and she's carried the pain of it ever since. The man who she thought was going to heal her didn't, and now she hides and watches him, learning his secrets, invisible in the shadows.

Owen Pick is invisible too. He's never had a girlfriend; he's never even had a friend.
Nobody sees him. Nobody cares.

But when Saffyre goes missing from opposite his house on Valentine's Day, suddenly the whole world is looking at Owen.

Accusing him. Holding him responsible for Saffyre's disappearance...

INVISIBLE GIRL: an engrossing, twisty story of how we look in the wrong places for bad people while the real predators walk among us in plain sight.

Critic reviews

An up-all-night gripping story with characters who feel as real as you and me. Lisa Jewell is the kind of writer you read twice – once as a breathless reader, to see how the story unfolds, and then again to try to work out how she makes it look so easy. (Erin Kelly)
Really good, gripping. I couldn't bear for it to finish. (Olivia Colman)
Lisa Jewell's dark and twisty thriller explores the murkier reaches of the human psyche, confounding expectations as it reaches a shocking denouement.
I am always reminded of Ruth Rendell at her very best when I read Lisa Jewell. Not only is her plotting masterful, Lisa has the rare ability to make you care - passionately - about all her characters, whether they are important or minor, instantly appealing or apparently monstrous. Invisible Girl is quite brilliant in every way. (Jane Casey)
Dark, gripping, emotionally intense. My heart hurt from being squeezed so tight. (Tamar Cohen)
A breathtakingly brilliant novel by an author at the absolute top of her game. (Jenny Colgan)
Compelling and surprisingly moving - Lisa Jewell never lets you down. (Clare Mackintosh)
Invisible Girl. I loved it. Every damn word. (AJ Finn)
An outstanding tale of intrigue, family secrets and exceptional storytelling. Lisa is the queen of intrinsic plotting with relatable characters, and suspense by the bucket load. I adored it. (Mel Sherratt)
Another masterpiece from a novelist whose grip on human nature in its flawed entirety never slips. Invisible Girl is gripping, disturbing and acutely observant; Jewell is an extremely special writer. (Alex Marwood)

The characters in this book are very detailed, you feel like you know them very well. Good storyline. Mid point, I felt it dragged a little, but I still wanted to stay with it. I enjoyed the narration.
I'm sure the book would have been just as good without the F word regularly dropped in to it. Not sure it added anything.
I still prefer the family upstairs, I found you and Vince and Joy. Overall this is an enjoyable book.

Good book, but prefer some of her others

I loved loved this book. Great down to earth story which was well written and full of suspense. I literally became anxious for one of the characters as I listened ..I will be looking for other books from this author.

Great suspense.

I’ve not enjoyed a book as much as this for a long time. Definitely one of Lisa Jewell’s best.

A selection of quirky characters including Sapphire, the invisible girl
of the title, who were all believable

This is a book which I desperately wanted to finish to find out how it all panned out and as soon as I’ve heard the last words, I was sad that it had ended as it left me wanting to know more about each of the people who featured in the story.

It is a story where you get annoyed at any interruptions and want everyone to just leave you alone to get to the end of it.

More like this please Lisa Jewell.

I used this book to while away the hours of marathon training, was completely absorbed by it. The narration was good as was the characterisation. Great company on some long runs.

Interesting
