About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

A Guardian Book of the Month.

When 17-year-old Emma leaves her best friend, Abi, at a party in the woods, she believes, like most girls her age, that their lives are just beginning. Many things will happen that night, but Emma will never see her friend again.

Abi's disappearance cracks open the façade of the small town of Whistling Ridge, its intimate history of long-held grudges and resentment. Even within Abi's family, there are questions to be asked - of Noah, the older brother whom Abi betrayed, of Jude, the shining younger sibling who hides his battle scars, of Dolly, her mother and Samuel, her father - both in thrall to the fire and brimstone preacher who holds the entire town in his grasp. Then there is Rat, the outsider, whose presence in the town both unsettles and excites those around him.

Anything could happen in Whistling Ridge, this tinder box of small-town rage and all it will take is just one spark - the truth of what really happened that night out at the Tall Bones....

Crime in small town America...

I could never really get into this story of a petty crime in small town America. Situations and characters are a bit of a stereotype and the plot truly never acceleretes to get the reader more involved . Not for me
