Summary

When a killer’s podcast reveals more than the truth....

Esme is a start-up success who runs her own successful media company and heads up a series of investigative podcasts. She also has a beautiful home, where she lives with her sister, Michelle, and her son, Zachary. Sure, there’s an ex-husband hanging around - Owen likes to pop round a bit too often - but everything is civilised and amicable. She has life all tied up.

But Esme knows that any successful podcaster is only as good as her last story, so she sets out on a new series of interviews to get to the truth behind Simone Fischer’s high-profile murder of her husband. Self-defence, crime of passion or coldly pre-meditated?

She emerges after one jail visit to discover that her sister has been viciously attacked and is in a coma. And so begins the unravelling of Esme’s life. Where she thought there was trust and loyalty, she slowly discovers deceit and betrayal. No one is quite who they seem - not even her closest family. 

As the podcast interviews plunge deeper into revealing the unnerving psychology of a murderer, Esme must try to keep her own sanity intact. The truth - about Simone and Esme’s own family - is there, if Esme can only find it. But will her investigations reveal more than she ever wanted to know?

This taut psychological thriller is perfect for fans of Serial and Kathleen Barber’s Truth Be Told.

Great story. Shame about the narration.

This was a really great story. I couldn’t turn it off. The second female narrator is SO jarring though. I nearly had to turn it off and skip her bits! Such a shame, but luckily the main bulk of the narration was fantastic.

Evidence not before deceit, denial and betrayal.

So good, a real page turner. Could not stop listening . A tale of mistrust and the need to love and protect her child however many obstacles stood in her way.
Beautifully narrated. Always enjoy this author.
In a word excellent!

Stick with it

I nearly gave up on this as it was in the format of a podcast which I found irritating. But I generally enjoy this author so persevered. And it turned into an enjoyable listen all be it rather contrived in parts.

Brilliant

I don’t think KL Slater is capable of writing a bad novel! This is yet another brilliant story.

Story well told

I dont really understand why this audio book received bad reviews about its narration. There were a number of different characters and each were defined by their different actors and voices perfectly. I enjoyed every bit of the story, with great attention to detail its easy to connect with the characters.

Ok book

One of the narrators was difficult to listen to with strange accents and voices. I managed to finish listening to the book despite this and the storyline was easy to follow.

Kinda knew something wasn’t right

Everything was all perfect, until it wasn’t. Some bits I saw coming, some not much. Keeps it fun though.
Enjoying this authors was of twisting two stories into one

A good listen

The only reason it got a four star on performance was the part of Justine, I had to alter the speed for her parts as it was way too slow.
The story and characters had me involved straight away.. well worth a listen
