About this listen

‘Dark and dramatic, with an explosive ending’ Diane Saxon

A woman on the run…

Madeleine Frost knows she has to get away from her partner Liam. His behaviour has become increasingly controlling and Maddie fears for her safety and that of her young daughter Poppy.

Desperation leads Maddie to the hotel owned by her estranged father – the extraordinarily beautiful Wrea Head Hall. The reunion is tense, but Maddie’s father agrees to her staying as his guest for as long as she needs.

Maddie’s whereabouts must stay a secret; but as she spends time getting to know her new home, she discovers the house has its own shocking past and secrets of its own. Secrets that could cost her dearly…

And when Liam makes it clear he wants Maddie back, she has to reassess everything. Because when Liam wants something, he gets it - no matter who he hurts…

A gripping psychological thriller from bestselling author, L. H. Stacey, perfect for fans of Teresa Driscoll, Sue Watson, Jackie Kabler and Kendra Elliot.

bit boring really, wanted somthing a bit gritty but turned into a soppy romance at one point, (gross) and from there on became a bit unrealistic, but an ok listen if you like that sort of thing.

I'm afraid Liam did for me - what a creep. Although I'm sure this is part of the story it was becoming predictable and obvious what his game was and I didn't want to hear any more.
