About this listen

WARNING: You won't be able to stop listening to this! The BRAND NEW utterly heart-pounding thriller from NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING author of The Wives, Valerie Keogh

Must-listen for fans of Freida McFadden and Lisa Jewell!

Cara Jenkins is a successful author about to embark on her thirtieth novel. But as she sits at her desk to write, she realizes that she has no ideas left. And as the pressure mounts for her to deliver, she begins to fear that her career is over.

Then the letters start.

At first, they seem harmless. But as the messages grow darker, Cara becomes convinced that someone is watching her, waiting for their moment to strike.

Her husband, Artie, dismisses the notes as stupid pranks, but Cara feels them pulling her back to a past she can't escape. With no easy answers, Cara does what she does best and begins to write. But the more words that come, the more fantasy and reality begin to blur and soon her imagination, and her accusations, begin to run wild.

With reality blurring into fiction, Cara struggles to see the truth. Is someone really watching her, or is her unravelling mind feeding her paranoia? And how will this story - her story – end?

This time her deadline has never felt more deadly….

Crazy plot and definitely farfetched, but totally compelling. I loved it. Highly, highly recommended. Valerie is one of the best writers in this genre.

That ending...!

I was left speechless by the ending of this book - in a good way! Gets a little confusing in places and would probably have been less so in written format, but overall.....incredible!

Wow!
