Publisher's summary

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Day of the Accident by Nuala Ellwood, read by Tara Fitzgerald.

'Gripping, poignant...I read it in one sitting' ROSAMUND LUPTON

'Brilliantly compulsive and with one hell of a twist!' CLAIRE DOUGLAS

'Makes you question everything you thought you knew' EMMA KAVANAGH

Sixty seconds after she wakes from a coma, Maggie's world is torn apart.


The police tell her that her daughter Elspeth is dead. That she drowned when the car Maggie had been driving plunged into the river. Maggie remembers nothing.

When Maggie begs to see her husband Sean, the police tell her that he has disappeared. He was last seen on the day of her daughter's funeral.

What really happened that day at the river?
Where is Maggie's husband?
And why can't she shake the suspicion that somewhere, somehow, her daughter is still alive?

For fans of Clare Mackintosh's I Let You Go and Lisa Jewell's Watching You, this gripping story will draw you in and shock you at every turn.

Great mystery and suspense, something missing

Couldn't put it down in my desire for the answers! But l didn't enjoy the story itself very much.

I enjoyed it. could have been better but good

As always there will be no spoilers in my reviews 😃. I was interested and slightly intrigued but I did figure out one part of plot but not entirely
I was surprised at a few things. Narration was Very Good. Tara didn't dissapoint perfect time and pace. will look for her narrating other book. I say it all the time A bad narrator can ruin a great book. authors need to be more aware of the impact it makes. I'd be happy to take that job. give me a five min or less I'll tell you whether you have a good narrator. all narrator have a listen to Imogen Church imo she top of the game. this narrator was new to me. but did very well

I was held from the first sentence to the last.
The narrator was perfect.

Riveting Read

This book grasped my full attention from the first few sentences. I went through all sorts of machinations when attempting to solve the puzzle! I had never read Ms. Ellwood until this book and will certainly go back and read whatever she has written

The reader was par excellence! Marvelous voice and her interpretations of the different characters was simply perfect.

Horribly Heart Wrenching Book.. SAD!

It is with a sick heart that I have finished this book,.. it should come with a severe warning,..asking for me credit back.
