Özet

In an encounter straight out of fiction, Katie might have met Mr Right on the long-haul flight from Melbourne to New York. Richard Sinclair is charming, handsome, wealthy, cultured—and married. In an open marriage, according to him. When he invites her to join him in his lush lakeside villa in Italy as his son’s au pair, it might just be the opportunity for a reset that Katie has been longing for.

The mansion at the edge of Lake Scanno is a romantic’s dream. But despite the perfect golden afternoons, tranquil waters and luxurious surrounds, all is not what it seems. In the nearby village, there are ominous rumblings about ghosts, drownings and the tragic fate of the women who came before her. What dark depths of obsession and betrayal will Katie uncover in this fairy-tale paradise? And when all the secrets and lies are unburied, will she be able to live with the devastating consequences of her choices?

Editorial Review

By chance, or with intent?
What’s better than a December mystery that transports you to a luxurious lakeside villa in Italy? Katie’s instant connection across the aisle of a long flight with Richard Sinclair initially feels like destiny. Richard is magnetic in every sense. The issue? He’s married, though he claims it’s open. After Katie accepts his invitation to work as his son’s au pair, village whispers spread about ghosts, drownings, and missing women at the Sinclair estate. As Katie uncovers what happened to the women who came before her, romance turns to dread. Chance brought her there, but the consequences will leave you questioning every coincidence. —Dawn G., Audible Editor

Enjoyed the book but felt that the very last chapter could have been in the last 2 chapters. Bringing the truth to light, a little more for Katy. But excellent all the same

Enjoyed the twists

I liked this, written in an interesting way. Slow burn but enjoyable. A few annoying bits to do with character traits but overall good. I would listen to more books by the author, 4 stars.

Worth a listen

Storytelling is an ancient tradition, to find an original source in this era must be near impossible, it’s all been done already. Unfortunately this idea was predictable for that reason. A married rich character meets young, charismatic service worker. Murder mystery genre? Gee, I wonder how this will go…?
As a parent that has read stories to five children I understand the influence of the enthusiasm projected makes a huge impact on the listeners reaction of the written story. Again, unfortunately, the narrator sounded extremely disinterested in the storyline. The voice change per character was successful and consistent until nearing the end which added to the effect that the main character gets to a point with the narrator where neither want to endure this story anymore.

Predictable

The narration was good but the storyline was a bit straightforward and weak imo. Also the main character felt a lot stronger at the beginning than she did from when she landed in Italy onward.

good performance but the story was a bit weak

Nowhere near as good as this author's other books. It was a bit tedious in places, just lacked excitement.

It was OK
