Publisher's summary

A dark night. A darker secret.

On a cold, dark night, two cars collide …

Inside the vehicle at fault, Jennifer Ashby survives with barely a scratch. In the wreckage of the second, the occupants are not so lucky. Jennifer’s good character helps her escape jail, but she is traumatised by the event.

Desperate for a change, and with her marriage buckling under the stress, she convinces her husband Jon to move to the beautiful but wild Daintree region, far away from family and friends.

As Jon spends long hours at his new job and Jennifer makes plans to absolve her lingering guilt, cracks begin to form in their idyllic new life. Will the shadow of their past continue to haunt them? Will their dark secret be exposed?

A captivating domestic thriller for fans of Sally Hepworth and Liane Moriarty.

'Thoroughly absorbing, sharply plotted ... a formidable new talent in the twisty domestic thriller genre.' - Nicola Moriarty

'Propulsive and gripping.' - Ali Lowe

'Taut and atmospheric.' - Petronella McGovern

Loved it!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will be watching this author for anything else she writes in the future. I'm an Aussie myself but now live overseas and when I downloaded the book I had no idea it was set in my homeland. I would have enjoyed it regardless. Good character development, great story line, likeable characters - highly recommend!

the narrator did an excellent job so much better than AI voices that it's a shamr to even compare them.

well they never did an excellent job the story is rather boring I had to listen to it at 1.2 time speed the author takes way too long to get to the point the only reason I finished is because I listened to stories like this is background noise while I'm at work the ending was very disappointing I'm not sure I would recommend it

Decent ending

Kept me listening but was kind of long and drawn out. The ending was decent. Great narration.

Good twist but main premise obvious .

Knew the big clincher from the insert. One good twist.
For a free book, I was thrilled and did listen to end.

Loved this book!! Keeps you guessing, no boring spots or lulls in the story!

Excellent listen!! The entire book is entertaining and there are no big gaps where it lags or gets boring. Much better than several books I’ve had to use credits for. Highly recommend.

Predictable but ok

Decent story…predictable with parts completely irrelevant but it was free so it’s ok for a free listen.

Narrator voice conflicted/mismatched with character

I really enjoyed this book but it was difficult to get past the narration — the narrator’s voice had the depth and tonality of a much older woman (I kept thinking Angela Landsbury) and the lead character was not old.
