Tense, claustrophobic and gripping . . . This tale of 'living the dream' gone wrong will have you tearing through the pages (Paula Daly)

Truly touching . . . and well-observed
Secrets lurk behind every corner in this dark, gothic thriller. Absorbing and chilling (Karen Perry)
I raced through Do Not Disturb. Douglas is one of few thriller writers who combines shocking twists effortlessly, and beautifully, with sensitive explorations of family dynamics. I loved it and can't wait to see what she does next (Gillian McAllister)
A tense and intriguing domestic noir where no one in the family is beyond suspicion. Kept me guessing right up to the thrilling finale (Emma Curtis)
This enjoyable tale is very contemporary

I enjoyed this but not as much as others by the same author.
Everyone was awake that night though so keep guessing about who dunnit right until the end!

Pretty good thriller

Ordinary murder in the spooky guesthouse novel.
Listenable, but no characterisation or feeling for the landscape in which the story is set. Passes a few dull hours without disturbing your equilibrium.

Run of the mill

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Really enjoyed thanks very much , story I could follow although a little girly it hung together well

A good listen

This one kept me guessing to the end. I found the smugness of the main character (narrator) a bit annoying after a while. Excellent narration though, and the Welsh accents are pleasant to listen to.

So many twists and turns
