About this listen

You thought she was safe. You were wrong....

Alex knows her daughter would never wander off in a strange place. So when her three-year-old vanishes from an idyllic beach wedding, Alex immediately believes the worst.

The hunt for Lottie quickly becomes a worldwide search, but it’s not long before suspicion falls on her mother. Why wasn’t she watching Lottie?

Alex knows she’s not perfect, but she loves her child. And with all eyes on her, Alex fears they’ll never uncover the truth unless she takes matters into her own hands.

Who took Lottie Martini? And will she ever come home?

A totally addictive thriller, with a twist you just won’t see coming. Fans of Lisa Jewell, Louise Candlish and T. M. Logan will be totally gripped from the very first moment.

Critic reviews

"Twist, twist, twist - I loved it.... Brilliant!" (Jackie Kabler, author of The Perfect Couple)

"What a page-turner! I couldn’t put it down. It had everything I love in a thriller – a great twist (or three or four), a fantastic lead character and a set up that will strike horror into the heart of any parent." (Sarah Alderson, best-selling author of The Weekend Away)

It’s a great, pacy story with a phenomenal twist. But it’s hard to care about any of the characters as they’re all so unlikeable, even the child who’s stolen. I wondered if that was what the author intended, or whether it was the arrogant, disdainful narration style. The more I listened, the more I disliked Alex, so I switched to reading it half way through, and it was much better.

Better to read than listen to

The story was clever and the plot twisted nicely. However, the narrator was annoying. She whined her way through the story, overacting furiously at every opportunity. Spoiled it for me.

Narrator ruined it for me
