Kate Rafter is a successful war reporter. She's the strong one. The one who escaped Herne Bay and the memories it holds. Her sister Sally didn't. Instead she drinks. But when their mother dies, Kate is forced to return to the old family home. And on her first night, she is woken by a terrifying scream. What secret has Kate stumbled upon? And is she strong enough to uncover the truth...and make it out alive?

page turner but felt like a soap opera

The narrator was fantastic and the story kept me hooked. however, I felt the author was just going for the wow/shocking revelations factor too much and this led to various far fetched and over melodramatic moments. the main character, Kate, is very well built and easy to get into. I did not enjoy the emotional torture and distress and felt this book was just milking real tragedies. The twists are very amusing but still do not explain how the characters cannot just listen to each other and they are just fixated in their own perceptions. too much of this book relies on the characters blurred judgments due to alcohol or pills, this got boring after a while. Also, the main male character is extremely boring and unrealisticly kind to start with. despite all of this I could not stop listening!

hard going

very well narrated, compelling, but unremittingly miserable. Avoid if you are given to bouts of depression!!!

Chillingly clever!

This is a heart-stopping, spine-tingling thriller of a tale. Excellently narrated by Imogen Church and Sally Scott, this production will take you through a roller-coaster of emotions before leaving you with a heart-stopping denouement that is simply brilliant. A tale of sibling rivalry that turns into more, so much more. An excellent example of classy writing by Nuala Ellwood. Highly, highly recommended

Absolutely brilliant

Perfectly narrated, this audiobook just keeps on giving. I had no idea what it was about (I didn't read the overview, so went in blind). Not knowing anything about it made it a whole lot better, as there was no preconception of who characters were, or any idea of a plot. The story telling held me from start to finish, and with more than a few surprises along the way.

Story ok Narration awful

This book was a bit predictable. The main character was very irritating and the narrator made things worse as she over “acted” throughout. The narrator that had a small part as the sister Kate would have been better imho.
The book was generally ok but there were NO likeable characters and it could have been shorter as there was a lot repetitive drunken situations/blackouts.

First 3/4 great end a bit weak and predictable

An intreguing story to start - told by a war journalist - story evolves on many levels and kept me interested trying to work out what was real and what was not - however the last part disappointed as once the “ twist” happened it became quite predictable and fell into same pattern as other books of this genre

Overall enjoyed - but don’t think I will try this author again
