About this listen

As part of her recovery from a devastating car accident, Grace Thomas embarks on a surprise cruise booked by her husband, Cameron. The accident still haunts Grace and she is a little anxious to be leaving her family, but excited to fulfil what has been a life-long dream of hers - cruising around the Mediterranean with some girlfriends - even if her husband's secretary, Chantelle, is tagging along for the trip. Maybe this is a chance to start a fresh with this woman. But Chantelle appears to be everywhere Grace turns, and her instincts can’t all be wrong.

Something is off. Not only does Chantelle resemble Grace, it soon becomes clear that she is desperate for Cameron’s attention, but at what lengths would she go to get it? Were Cameron's motives for sending Grace away on this cruise as admirable as she first thought and is her husband's relationship with the ever-present Chantelle as platonic as he claims?

Grace's journey of self-discovery suddenly begins to feel rather sinister. Her friends are distant, Chantelle is incessantly playing with her mind, and Grace feels more lost and alone than ever. Then, she discovers that her husband has told the children she’s died. Grace's world is shattered. Everything she knows has been a lie and the truth has devastating consequences for everyone...

Fans of T.M. Logan, C.L. Taylor and K.L. Slater won’t be able to put this one down.

Unexpected and Interesting

I must say I didn’t expect the ending and I became frustrated at just wanted to know what in the world was going on! I think the narrator did an amazing job, as she often made me felt like I was in turn going crazy from just listening to her. Enjoyed the read.

stick with it! it all comes together

a couple hours in I was feeling like there were too many implausible parts to this story but I was still enjoying it nonetheless. now that I've finished it I have to say it all comes together to make perfect sense. so don't give up. it's a wonderful listen and definitely worth a credit. my next favorite thing to a good listen is discovering a new author that I thoroughly enjoy. this one fits the bill

Unique psychological thriller

The story is told from the perspective of a very confused, paranoid woman, giving the listener a sense of what it's like to inhabit her world. The tale is engaging and fast-paced. Highly recommended to fans of this genre.

Glad I gave it a chance!

I'm happy I gave this one another chance! I was struggling to get through the "woe is me" main character at first but wanted to give it a chance due to the great reviews. I'm so glad I did! The twist!! Whew!! Definitely worth the listen!

Spastic

A bit unhinged and disjointed. I didn’t know what character to relate to. If you are okay with unhinged anxiety then this book is for you.

WAY TOO MUCH CUSSING!!!

I am only on chapter 10 and I can't wait to be done with this; I paid for it so I will listen to it. I'm surprised this has gotten great reviews.

I feel as though I am watching one of those dreadful housewives shows; drama, cussing, self important, poor me attitude. The main character is loud, dramatic and cusses too much.
