About this listen

Eighteen months after Natalie Gray loses her husband, Bernie, in a horrific hit-and-run accident, she finds love with his best friend, Ed Cooper, and moves into his home with her teenage daughter, Scarlett. But she begins to suspect Ed has a dark side - and even darker intentions. Natalie must get her troubled child to a safer place, but when Scarlett starts to hear voices coming from the empty apartment next door it seems she has unwittingly moved them into the heart of danger.

DCI Tom Douglas is also chasing the truth. As his investigation into the suicide of a teenage girl draws him ever closer to Natalie and Scarlett, will he be too late to protect them from the threat they face or from the truths that will tear their lives apart?

Critic reviews

"Almost unbearably tense, with a killer twist." ( Good Housekeeping)
All stars

I enjoyed the story, kept me gripped & Tom Douglas is a likeable character. The narrator almost spoilt it for me. The voice is too slow and the 'male' voices not good. I also found the hysterical teenage voices really irritating. It helped for me to increase the speed to 1.25 level.

Good story, bad narration

Loved the story, the characters, the pace and the narration. I've read all the books in this series and this book was right up there with the rest. Great book!

Loved it!

Slow burner, but does get exciting as you progress further into the story. The narration was performed excellently. However unlike her previous brilliant thrillers, Sleep Tight and Kill Me Again, there are too many questions left unanswered.
Was Bernie/Ed involved in Alisons crimes???
And who was the man who came to see Lewis at his flat warning him not to use the photography room?? Was it Ed!!
Hopefully Rach will follow this up with a sequel as I did not leave this listen has impressed as I previously have in her other books.
