About this listen

An Amazon Charts bestseller.

Anything can happen behind closed doors…

When estate agent Laura Bradley is asked to sell number 1 Aspen Hollow, it feels like a dream come true. The house is beautiful—five bedrooms and a perfect garden, surrounded by lush woodland. Laura loves finding a family their dream home, even as each night she returns to a cramped single room.

Laura tries to ignore the red paint thrown at the walls of the house, the strange noises upstairs and the threatening messages she is receiving. Whatever its history, the beautiful house deserves a second chance.

But by the time Laura finds out what really happened to the family at number 1, it is far too late. Someone doesn’t want the house to be sold, for its secrets to surface. They have killed before and they are willing to kill again to keep the truth hidden…

From Amazon Charts bestseller Caroline Mitchell comes an utterly gripping psychological thriller about shocking family secrets that will keep you guessing till the final page. Perfect for fans of The Family Across the Street, Liane Moriarty and Lisa Jewell.

Gripped by this one, just when you think you might know who did it, it wasn’t or maybe it was…..it would be an excellent film or TV drama.

Another great gripping story.

I thoroughly enjoyed this.
It was hard at times to follow who was who and how they were connected.

Super twisty & creepy

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

I’m just getting tired of books where you have to totally suspend your disbelief from the outset. Do estate agents really focus on one single property? Then it just gets more unbelievable as it proceeds. No cctv in such a modern high end property? Small things but multiply these and it tests the authenticity of the story, Listened to it all but not exactly sure why?!

Well read but …
