About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Can you stop a murder when it's already happened?

The book everyone has been talking about.

It's every parent's nightmare.

Your happy, funny, innocent son commits a terrible crime: murdering a complete stranger.

You don't know who. You don't know why. You only know your teenage boy is in custody and his future lost.

That night you fall asleep in despair. Until you wake...

...and it is yesterday.

Every morning you wake up a day earlier, another day before the murder. Another chance to stop it.

Somewhere in the past lie the answers, and you don't have a choice but to find them....

Critic reviews

It's perfection, every word, every moment. A masterpiece . . . I had my mind blown apart. After I finished it I sat with my mouth hanging open in awe. One of the best books I've ever read (Lisa Jewell)
A mind-bending page-turning thriller. Non-stop thrills right from the start. A rare gem (Steve Wright)
Wow. Amazing! Loved every page . . . If you are looking for a summer read, I've found it! (Holly Willoughby)
Extraordinary (Harriet Tyce)
It's absolutely AMAZING. The plot is astonishing - original and ingenious (Marian Keyes)
The best book I have read in a very long time. Genius. Simply genius. This is McAllister as the very top of her consistently excellent game. Brilliantly plotted, perfectly paced, characters I was invested in. This is a masterclass of exactly what a novel should be. Taught, tense, not a wasted word. This brilliantly plotted novel had me on the edge of my seat. You have to read this book (Adele Parks)

I downloaded this book thinking I was getting a same-y crime fiction mystery. I was WRONG. I got so much more. The story was great, although it was slightly let down by the last chapter but I can overlook that as I just don’t know how you can end this type of storyline in a satisfying and neat way. The performance was also great - the consistency of the characters was brilliant. I will be listening to this again for sure!

Expectations smashed

A bit slow to start and was confused over the accents of husband and son. Realised later that the husband was Welsh, the son Liverpool. Story just got better and better as book went on. The last couple of hours were exciting, kept me guessing right up until the end. Probably best audiobook I've listened to this year, and I listen to about 3 a week. Loved it!!

Excellent book, definitely worth a credit
