About this listen

Devoted father or merciless killer?

His secrets are buried with him.

Florence Lovelady's career was made when she convicted coffin-maker Larry Glassbrook of a series of child murders 30 years ago. Like something from our worst nightmares the victims were buried...alive.

Larry confessed to the crimes; it was an open and shut case. But now he's dead, and events from the past start to repeat themselves. Did she get it wrong all those years ago? Or is there something much darker at play?

This is my first book by Sharon Bolton, but it won’t be my last! A fantastically well written novel that keeps you interested from the first sentence. Each chapter brings a new facet to the tale and is completely unpredictable! Beautifully narrated by Nathalie Buscombe. She is believable and paints a vivid scene. I shall definitely continue reading the authors other material. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

WOW

I loved the Lacey books and just couldn't get my head around this one. What a mistake.

This story is equally as good.

The main protagonist draws you in. There are twist and turns that keep the tension.

Worth a read/listen.

I put off reading this book. Why??

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, so much so I have just downloaded all of the authors other books, the only critisicm I would have it the narrators accents for some characters, at times a little laughable, however, it didn't spoil the book. Definitely worth a listen.

great story

It was on occasions hard to recognise who was who from the narrator.
The story line was good, and it kept good pace.
I did guess the ending towards the end but all in all a good read.

Had really good twists and turns
