About this listen

‘Eerily page-turning and wonderfully twisty.’ Kimberly McCreight, New York Times bestselling author

One of them knows what happened that night…

For twelve-year-old Cora Landry and her friends Violet and Jordyn, it was supposed to be an ordinary sleepover – movies and talking about boys. But when they decide to sneak out to go to the abandoned rail yard on the outskirts of town, little do they know that their innocent games will have dangerous consequences…

Later that night, Cora Landry is discovered on the tracks, bloody and clinging to life, her friends nowhere to be found. In an investigation that leaves no stone unturned, everyone is a suspect and no one can be trusted – not even those closest to her. But who would want to hurt a young girl like Cora – and why?

A shocking, unmissable thriller, perfect for fans of Claire Douglas, Lucy Clarke, Nuala Ellwood and Paula Daly.

Such a trite book. What it illustrated for me is that books recommended by GoodReads are not good. Bunch of neurotic young people and their parents, no meaningful progression of a coherent plot. Plus the author should look up what 'demurred' means.

Don't bother
