About this listen

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Nanny and What She Knew comes the terrifying story of what can happen after all your dreams come true

Be careful what you wish for...

Childhood sweethearts Nicole and Tom are a normal, loving couple—until a massive lottery win changes their lives overnight.

Soon they’ve moved into a custom-built state-of-the-art Glass Barn on the stunning grounds of Lancaut Manor in Gloucestershire. They have fancy cars, expensive hobbies, and an exclusive lifestyle they never could have imagined.

But this dream world quickly turns into a nightmare when Tom is found dead in the swimming pool. Was Tom’s death a tragic accident, or was it something worse?

Nicole is devastated. Tom was her rock. And their beautiful barn —with all its smart features that never seem to work for her—is beginning to feel very lonely. But she’s not entirely by herself out there in the country. There’s a nice young couple who live in the Manor itself along with their middle-aged housekeeper who has the Coach House. And an old friend of Tom’s from school has turned up to help her get through her grief.

But big money can bring big problems and big threats. And is Nicole's life in danger as well?

Nicole’s beginning to feel like a little fish in a big glass bowl.

Surrounded by piranhas.

Kept me guessing

Great narration. I especially enjoy multiple cast who all did excellent. I also liked that the outcome was not obvious from the start.

Weak ending

Had trouble getting into this one- kept trying and made it to the end- thought the end was quite soft and more of an afterthought.

Thank goodness..

Thank goodness! I needed a good book. I haven't had any luck this year with books and was started to get discouraged. I really liked this one. Some pretty good twists as well.

Great Initial Story

But I found the ending as disappointing. This writer is however very strong and I will look for more books from her.
