Summary
You made a promise to your sister. It could destroy your daughter.
The daughter
Fifteen-year-old Rosie lies in hospital fighting for her life. She’s trying to tell her mother what happened to her, but she can’t speak the words out loud.
The mother
Toni is a doting and over-protective mother, terrified for her daughter’s life. Having lost her husband in a tragic accident, Toni has dedicated her life to keeping Rosie safe from harm. She needs to know what secrets Rosie has been keeping and how she ended up in a hospital bed - but Toni has a secret of her own....
The pact
Thirty years ago, Toni and her sister, Bridget, made each other a promise: never to speak of their childhood; to protect each other without asking for help from others, no matter what....
But in order to save Rosie, Toni may have to break her lifelong promise to her sister...and open doors to her past she hoped would remain closed forever.
The Pact is a chilling psychological thriller about the lies we will tell to save our children. Perfect for fans of Gone Girl, Apple Tree Yard, and The Sister.

Powerful and compelling
As a mother of a teenage girl, this story struck a terrifying chord with me. S E Lynes creates such believable characters in Rosey, Toni and Bridget, I lived their story with them. The Pact has a truly compelling, complex plot with shocking twists, which meant I could barely force myself to stop listening. This is a fantastic book. Highly recommended!

Extremely Irritating!
I got about a third of the way through and just couldn't listen to any more! It sounds as though it has been written by a teenager, for a teenager. Predominantly using teenage language such as "deffo" . little actual action, just listening to a spoiled brat complaining that her mother doesn't let her do anything with her friends. Boring.

An enjoyable listen but…
Great story, if not a little predictable but worth a listen. The only thing I didn’t like was the whole “mummy” thing. It got irritating and sounded wrong for a teenager who was starting to rebel. That’s just my opinion though. A good story and good narration.

So glad I stuck with it!
I attempted to start listening to this book on a couple of occasions & found that several chapters in I couldn't get into it at all. But stuck with it through a particularly long car journey & by the time I was a couple of hours in I was hooked & it was a great listen.

Excellent ‘ keep you on the edge of your seat” book
Well written with lots of twists and turns with a slow reveal.
Excellent narrator who captured the voices of the characters superbly. Impressed by the authors depiction of a 15 year old girl - highly recommended

Took a while to get going
Ok read but nothing spectacular. Not her best book. It starts very slow and is predictable in places.
