About this listen

The gripping new thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat from the first page to the last!

A hidden community…

Thirty years ago, in the English countryside, a commune was set up. Led by Uncle Saviour, it was supposed to be a place of love, peace and harmony. But what started out as paradise turned into hell.

A shocking abduction…

Now, two young children have vanished from their home in the middle of the night. Their parents are frantic, the police are at a loss.

A twisting case…

DI Ottoline is leading the search – her only clue a mask found in the woods. Could the key lie in events that took place decades ago, when a dream of a new way of life became something far more sinister?

Critic reviews

"Creepy and full of tension, with great characters, plenty of twists and turns, and a nail-biting finish, The Cult is a real page-turner. One of my favourite books this year." (Sarah Linley, author of The Trip)

"One of those books that grabs you by the throat and won't let go. Perfectly paced, and with an absolute kicker of an ending." (Tess Stimson, author of Stolen)

"Such a clever plot; a sinister decades-old cult and a modern-day missing children mystery, brilliantly woven together." (Jackie Kabler, author of The Perfect Couple)

Mixed feelings on this one! When I read the plot outline I was expectant for really good things but somehow I found it all a little long and at times tedious and drawn out.. Sorry!
