About this listen

A golden summer, and six talented teenagers are looking forward to the brightest of futures—until a daredevil game goes horribly wrong, leaving three strangers dead.

18-year-old Megan takes the blame for the crime, leaving her friends to get on with their lives. In return, they each agree to a 'favour', payable on her release from prison.

Twenty years later Megan is free.

It is payback time.

And her friends start disappearing, one by one . . .

Richard & Judy bestseller Sharon Bolton is back, with her twistiest thriller yet.

I was gripped from start to finish in this story. My favourite audible book so far this year. Sharon never disappoints and The Pact is yet another fantastic book, as well as audible, added to my collection of hers. Hanako narrates it so well.

Brilliant!

I liked the story and the characters were definitely intriguing, my only gripe is the ending left me a little... flat I think is the only way to describe it. sequel needed imo - if only a conclusion type novella.
