About this listen

**The thriller from the Amazon bestseller**

‘AMAZING!’ Marian Keyes ‘Powerful’ C.L. Taylor

Every family has it’s secrets…

Joe McKee – pillar of the Derry community – is dead. As arrangements are made for the traditional Irish wake, friends and family are left reeling at how cancer could have taken this much-loved man so soon.

But grief is the last thing that Joe’s daughter Ciara and step-daughter Heidi feel. For they knew the real Joe – the man who was supposed to protect them and did anything but.

As the mourners gather, the police do too, with doubt being cast over whether Joe’s death was due to natural causes. Because the lies that Joe told won’t be taken to the grave after all – and the truth gives his daughters the best possible motive for killing him…

A gripping suspense novel about deadly secrets and lies. The perfect read for fans of Clare Mackintosh.

Beautifully written, beautifully narrated. It feels wrong to say good things about this devastating, distressing and harrowing book. At times I realised I was actually crying. The book is so deep and very emotional. I loved so many of the well drawn characters, they were all so real (both the good and the bad) and I cared so deeply about many of them! I will miss them and don’t want to let them go. Just brilliant. Thank you to both the author and narrators.

A 6* book

Considering there were not many charecters in this book it totally gripped me, I couldn't stop listening. This would make a brilliant TV mini series. It would make others come forward (without giving to much away.) Written & narrated Superbly.
