‘Tense and compulsive’ Louise Candlish

‘Suspicion, betrayal and dark secrets abound’ T. M. Logan

TELL ME YOUR SECRETS…

When Alice and Leo move into a newly renovated house in The Circle, an exclusive gated community, it is everything they’ve dreamed of. But appearances can be deceptive…

As Alice is getting to know her neighbours, she discovers a devastating secret about her new home, and begins to feel a strong connection with the therapist who lived there before.

Alice becomes obsessed with trying to piece together what happened. But no one wants to talk about it. And her neighbours are hiding something…

The million-copy Sunday Times bestselling author B A Paris returns to her heartland of gripping psychological suspense in this powerful tale of a house that holds a shocking secret.

Sadly after Behind Closed Door , it was mediocre ! It did not engage the imagination, well mine at all a first as I have listened to on average a minimum of 4/5 Audible books a week for the last 4 years !

Disappointing, rather pedestrian!

Not really the suspense thriller that I was hoping for, just a "Who Dun It" kind of story, along with a few relationship issues. Set in a gated community of 12 houses, newcomer Alice sets out to solve a murder puzzle. Lots of asking questions, and lots of neighbour" type conversations. Quite a long drawn out ending, waiting for the twist that never came. Our reader, Olivia Dowd, gives a passable performance. She has a clear reading voice, but every character sounds the same.
