About this listen

Who knew her secret? And what happened that night?

‘A cracking page-turner from Phoebe Morgan’ Cara Hunter

‘Fast-moving. Addictive. And all too possible’ Jane Corry

‘I loved it, those twists!’ B A Paris

On the hottest day of the year, Caroline Harvey is found dead in Suffolk. Her body is left draped over a cot – but the baby she was looking after is missing.

Hundreds of miles away, Siobhan Dillon is on a luxurious family holiday in France when her husband, Callum, is arrested by French police on suspicion of murder.

As Siobhan’s perfect family is torn apart by the media in the nation’s frantic search for the missing baby, she desperately tries to piece together how Callum knew Caroline.

What happened that night? Was Caroline as innocent as she seemed – or was she hiding a secret of her own?

The thrilling new book from the number one digital bestselling author of The Doll House and The Girl Next Door.

It took an age to set the scene, with most of it happening in a slow pondering, thoughts. I just wanted it to hurry up and get to the point. If you're an impatient listener as I am, I wouldn't recommend this book. If you don't mind hearing seemingly endless ramblings then you'll like it. Love the narrator

Too ponderous

This thriller kept me absorbed until the very end, with fascinating characters and twist after twist. Brilliantly narrated by Stephanie Racine.
