About this listen

The party was supposed to be the highlight of the summer. If only I’d known that night would destroy our lives....

All the neighbours were laughing, drinking out of plastic glasses and getting along. I almost felt happy. Almost forgot about the terrible argument earlier and the sinister messages I’d been receiving from a strange address all week, threatening to expose the lies behind my perfect life.

As we finished with the red and gold fireworks and welcomed everyone back to our house, I believed that everything would be okay.

But I didn’t know who I was inviting in.

I never could have imagined what would happen here, in our home, after I’d gone up to bed.

Everyone saw something different.

It’s my daughter’s word against the story the boy from down the road is telling. But how can I find out what really happened that night without everyone finding out the truth about me?

An absolutely gripping story of the secrets you would do anything to keep hidden, with a twist you just won’t see coming. Perfect for fans of Gone Girl, Big Little Lies and The Girl on the Train.

I liked the story, however I was waiting for a good twist and it didn't happen. The teenage boy voice was very annoying. I wouldn't put this book at the top of my list but not regretting listening to it all the way through either.

Good listen

I have no idea how I managed to stick this book out. It was far too long, part 1 was mostly unnecessary. The ending was very poor, everything about the storyline was unremarkable.
The narrator(s) accents were shockingly bad, the one used for the mixed race London teenager made me cringe! I can’t decide if it was almost racist tbh.
Disappointed, and a waste of a credit.

Unremarkable, terrible narrator

Poor storyline that dragged on. So much unnecessary wording in this book that served no purpose.

The narrators were OK

The narration of the mix-race and indian(?) characters was horrific, like racist caricatures, and really irritating to hear.

Hated the narration
