About this listen

Three troubled women. One deadly secret.

Lissy and her daughter, Rosie, live a quiet life in Yorkshire. However, when events at Rosie’s school come to light, their peaceful existence is shattered.

Meanwhile, middle-aged women Erica and Beverley appear to have perfect lives, but behind closed doors, things are not as they seem.

All three women are tied together by a dark past that goes back to their school days. A child was murdered, and one of the women is to blame. But is the person responsible for the child’s death the same person who was blamed for it all those years ago?

As secrets from their past begin to surface, it becomes clear that someone has revenge in their sights....

Nearly gave up on this book as l found it difficult to follow initially but so glad l didn’t l found Lizzie a bit annoying and often wanted to shake her from being the victim and accepting her fate not sure if this was what the author intended however; Erica and Beverly were always In the frame as the bad guys and l thought very plausible- this is only y second audible book and lm very pleased with my choice

the narration spoiled the story, couldn't warm to her voice and very audible swallowing sounds were too much.

OK but quite predictable

Clever plot. Good storyline pace. Totally wrecked by OTT narration. Some narrative inflection and interpretation is helpful but this was just far too histrionic. I was relieved to reach the end and only persevered because of the excellent story.

Very irritating narration
