A totally addictive and completely unputdownable psychological thriller

She stole my name. Now she’s dead. Am I next?

The invitation is anonymous. It doesn’t say whose funeral I must attend, only that I can’t afford to miss it. I’m sure it’s a mistake, but when I arrive, I know immediately it isn’t. The name on the gravestone stops me in my tracks: Alice Anderson.

That’s my name. Or at least it was.

I want to run from this crowd of slick designer clothes and sunglasses hiding prying eyes. But I can’t show my fear. I have no choice other than to stay and find out who sent the invitation. Someone here knows the secret I’d kill to keep.

Whoever invited me thinks they can make me pay for my past. But little do they know, I have planned for this very moment, and I know exactly what’s going to happen next…

This totally addictive novel from bestselling author Helen H. Durrant is perfect for fans of The Housemaid, Gone Girl and The Perfect Marriage. Prepare to be hooked.

Kept wanting to Alice how stupid she was. Nearly stopped reading but had to listen to the end. Strange as I’ve really liked other books by this author.

Weird

I usually enjoy Helen's work, alas this isn't one of her finest. I had to continue to see how it progressed though I found it tough going.

Not one of Helen's finest.

Very weak and predictable plot, impossible to relate but to. It failed to grab me from the beginning.

Helen H. Durrant’s ‘The Funeral’ hooks you from the start with a premise dripping in intrigue

The story kicks off in spectacular fashion. Donna, living under an alias to escape a relentless loan shark, is drawn to the funeral of a stranger with the promise of an inheritance. But from the moment she arrives, nothing is as it seems, and the tension never lets up.

I loved the constant uncertainty - who to trust, who to fear. The novel is packed with red herrings and misdirection, keeping me guessing until the very end. And that final reveal? Completely unexpected. The last chapter left me convinced there’s room for a sequel or spin-off, and I’ll be first in line if that happens!

That said, I did struggle with one aspect, how Donna managed to disappear for three years under a new identity, yet still be tracked down via email.

As an audiobook, the narration was excellent, with distinct voices for each character. My only minor gripe? The near absence of the Mancunian accent Donna is supposed to have. I wasn’t expecting an exaggerated portrayal, but it was barely noticeable. Still, that’s a small detail in an otherwise gripping listen.

An absolutely brilliant book! I couldn’t stop listening, and the ending was nothing like I expected. I’ll be impatiently waiting for whatever Helen H. Durrant writes next.
