About this listen

She thought she had put all the questions to rest. But someone from her past wants answers. From the best-selling author of The Rumor and Who Did You Tell? comes The Dare, an electrifying novel of suspense.

“I read The Dare in two big gulps - it’s pacey, has great characters, and there’s a flip worthy of Simone Biles.” (Fiona Barton, New York Times best-selling author of The Widow)

At the time it was exciting. A game of dare, but one that had motive and justification. Children can be so judgmental, can’t they? I can still hear her cry as she toppled forward, the dull thud of her body as it landed on the pavement.

Lizzie and Alice are the best of friends, as close as can be. Until the day when they’re out playing by the train tracks and a childish spat triggers Lizzie’s epilepsy. When she comes to, she finds an unimaginable horror: Alice has been killed. Lizzie is devastated, and as she tries to cope with her grief, she is shocked to find herself alienated from Alice’s friends and relatives, who are convinced Lizzie and “the dare” somehow had a role in her friend’s death.

I knew that whatever she wanted me to do, I’d do it. Like that first, dreadful dare.

Years later, Lizzie has tried to move on. She’s engaged to a wonderful man and is starting a new life in London. But someone from her past isn’t willing to forgive and forget. And they’ll do anything to pry answers from her. Even if Lizzie doesn’t know them herself.

The worst thing I've read in a very long time

This was HORRIBLE from start to finish. unless you're thing is a story featuring the dumbest person in the world. She was just stupid. She was a whiny sheltered idiot. That's being nice, believe me. It was basically every situation or thought would be the thing no other person would say or do.

The whole premise is ridiculous. She has epilepsy so that means she can't get a job, school or date? She's 25, finds a man out of league and moves in a couple months. Someone who despised her suddenly shows up and wants to be besties. I don't know anyone that would become best friends with someone like that in a week. I can go on and on, one long eye roll.

After 1200 audible titles this is only the 3rd I gave one star.
