‘Dark. Twisty. Addictive. I couldn’t put it down’ LISA JEWELL

She loves her family. She’d never let anything happen to them . . . Would she?

On the outside, Maddie is a happy young mother with a new baby. But on the inside, she’s afraid.

Afraid that her marriage to Lucas isn’t what she thought.

Afraid that she’s having mysterious blackouts where her memories should be.

But how can she ask for help when something terrible is done to her family?

Who can she turn to, who can she trust?

And how does she know it wasn’t her?

Full of twists and turns, this is perfect for fans of I Invited Her In and The Family Upstairs.

This is the first time I have ever been moved to write a review after years of ardent Audible membership... This is a cleverly crafted and complex story but I found it so distressing to listen to that I had to keep skipping bits and have now found it so harrowing that I have had to give up, maybe just temporarily.. I do so want a happy conclusion.

Frustrating to listen to. Its the kind of book I like to listen to, domestic thrillers - I was frustrated by the decisions of the woman in the book. She's just lost her baby and it doesn't seem to affect her that much, she knows full stop that she hasn't done certain things and still doubts herself and lies to the police. Her husband lies about every detail about himself and she doesn't hear alarm bells? I tried very hard to finish the book but I got to the last two hours and gave up. The narrator is good but irritating when she speaks as Maddie, talking like a timid frightened mouse one minute and then Maddie speaking normally in the next line. It is quite well written and a good story, but I had to give up.

Surely a woman can't be this stupid ?

Great story with lots of twists and turns. It kept me guessing to the end. The only thing that spoiled it was the awful narrator!

Great story...

While I enjoyed this book, I found Maddie irritating. She was understandably going through a terrible trauma but she seemed oblivious to the obvious situation in front of her.

Enjoyable but frustrating - dragged on a bit!

This is the typical neurotic woman book, I don’t mean that disparagingly, I enjoy them, but this was so, so long, again, I enjoy long books.

I really didn’t like any of the characters, especially Maddie. Which is horrible of me because she was obviously going through a great deal of trauma. At the beginning of the book, she smiles a lot when talking about happy things and I found that irritating.

Also, I really like surprises, for me this didn’t deliver but it won’t prevent me from reading or listening to another neurotic woman book!

Sooo long!
