About this listen
When you get off at your stop, the police are waiting. Another passenger saw you and Kit arguing on the boat home the night before and the police say that you had a reason to want him dead. You protest. You and Kit are friends - ask Melia, she'll vouch for you. And who exactly is this other passenger pointing the finger? What do they know about your lives?
No, whatever danger followed you home last night, you are innocent, totally innocent.
Aren't you?©2020 Louise Candlish (P)2020 Simon & Schuster UK
The problem is you can constantly hear the narrator swallow saliva. It is very very distracting.I
I don't know if it's a problem with microphones but it really detracts
Why can I hear every saliva swallow?

Great characters, fascinating insight into the housing crisis in London and what it is like to live and work in the capital, wonderful images of the Thames and commuting on the river bus ..... romance, the fragility of relationships living in a survielled society with a phobia and OH THE PLOT!
A plot of plots, so tightly wound it had you sitting back thinking where it is all going but enjoying the ride and then ... suddenly you are thrown ... and thrown again and again until you do not know what is what and feel very foolish for having thought you knew what was going on.
Love Louise Candlish's writing as there are never any annoying plot holes or niggles - nothing left that is not bolted down or squared away - really intelligent, ingenious and addictive storytelling, no cliches, no gore or revelling in gritty, dark, upsetting details of crime - no lazy and horrible shortcuts like pets being killed to signify danger lurking just right riveting, twisty thrilling and compulsive reading with the Thames positively thronging with sneaky red herrings.
Hats off - I cannot find even one small flaw in this book.it was seamless and sensational - I am so hoping we do not have to wait too long for the next as I have so adored and devoured the last four.
Even my husband was caught up in this one and asked for the low down on what the latest news on what was happening in the book every day and was disappointed if I had not got very far since the last recap and pronounced it brilliant - it is not his genre at all, so high praise indeed.
I was kind of expecting a female narrator and it took me a while to get into it, but soon I was thinking it was genius casting as Steven Mackintosh really did make his character Jamie come alive,
I just finished this last night and I will so miss my daily commutes via River Bus and my many drinks in the Hope and Anchor and The Mariner not to mention the wicked plotting, heartbreaking betrayals, devilish deeds and double dealing ..... ahhh if only every thriller could be so thrilling and superbly written!
See, I knew I could not get through a review without one small gripe!
Masterful & mesmerising-even the twists had twists

It’s a world where square footage is the measure and currency of status but is seldom earned.
Clever plotting but, despite several whopping great twists, it’s actually quite slow for the most part.
Fun read (and superb narration) but I’m not sure which character I would hate to be trapped in a confined space with least.
So glad there are some books being published/recorded again after the lockdown drought.

The story itself dragged a bit, with only one twist of note to make me sit up. I finished it because I was hoping for another, but the end left me rather disappointed. I give it 3 stars though, because my expectation may have been a bit high as I can't help but compare all crime novels to my favourite author, Robert Goddard.
