About this listen

A gripping domestic thriller about obsession, betrayal, and the terrifying danger of a woman with nothing left to lose.

Morgan Campbell has built a life she loves—three sons, a devoted husband, a career she’s proud of, and a close circle of friends in a quiet Scottish town. But when Melinda moves in, everything changes.

At first, Melinda is warm, helpful, and eager to fit in. She joins Morgan’s book club, charms her friends, and slowly weaves herself into Morgan’s world. But something feels wrong. Melinda copies Morgan’s clothes, her hair, even her mannerisms—and soon, Morgan’s friends start to pull away, convinced she’s hiding something.

Then Morgan collapses at a dinner, and whispers of illness and paranoia begin to spread. But Morgan knows the truth: Melinda isn’t just trying to be like her. She’s trying to be her.

As Morgan’s eldest son begins to investigate, a dark connection is uncovered—one that links Melinda to Morgan’s past, and a man they both once knew.

Now Morgan must fight for the life she’s built, before the woman she trusted takes everything—including her family.
