About this listen

From the acclaimed author of The Blue Book of Nebo comes a heartbreaking journey into a small town’s grief when their beloved golden girl is found murdered.

Greta Pugh is dead.

The small village of Bethesda, Wales, is no stranger to tragedy. Once a thriving, prosperous community, the town has been marred by an ever-deepening class divide. But now, with rich and popular Greta Pugh found murdered in the local quarry, everyone in Bethesda is rattled, and all their secrets are at risk.

No one is more aware of this than Greta’s friends, especially Shane, a classmate and the son of the Pughs’ cleaner. Everyone knows more than they’re letting on, but when the police and the media descend with all their probing questions, there’s soon nowhere left to hide the answers.

As Shane watches the investigation unfold, he grapples with everything he knows about the Pugh family and all he’s learning about the people around them. Each revelation brings the town a step closer to the truth of who killed Greta…but only one person may truly know why.

Critic reviews

“Ros parcels out clues about the central mystery with restraint…When the truth finally emerges, it’s a gut punch. Ros has outdone herself.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Who murdered Greta and why? That is the question throughout this novel. Several of Greta’s family secrets come out white the investigation into her murder. While the writing was good and I enjoyed the story, I found the storyline to be more on the YA side trying to crossover to include adults. I had the whole figured out before it was revealed but that was okay. It didn’t ruin the story for me. I didn’t really connect with any of the characters but that was okay too. I continued on because I wanted to know the whole story and the why.

Good story but it isn’t going to be for everyone
