About this listen

A suspenseful psychological thriller with a shocking twist, perfect for fans of Lia Middleton, BA Paris and Alex Michaelides.

What if your dream life turned into your worst nightmare?

Lauren is thrilled to escape her old life in London for a fresh start in the countryside with her partner, Paul, and her two stepchildren. Haunted by her past, Lauren knows how lucky she is, in her dream home with her ready-made family. She also knows how much she stands to lose.

But as Lauren struggles to adjust to motherhood, Paul becomes increasingly distant and as village rumours begin to swirl about the fate of the house's previous occupants, Lauren's fears grow. She wants to trust Paul—she owes everything to him—but how can she, when she can barely trust herself?

Didn’t figure it out until the end

The story was well written. Suspenseful and kept me interested. The narrator was great. Highly recommend if you like mystery and suspense.

You can run, but you can’t hide…

In this gripping psychological thriller, two families' lives become entangled in an intricate web of secrets, red flags, lies and deceit. Already a fan of narrator Sofia Zervudachi, she brilliantly shows her skills with her spot-on vocals. Emily Freud pens a bewildering and haunting tale that leads us on an elaborate adventure; hear every word, for fear of missing a vital clue (a lesson I learned). Lauren, wanting to escape her troubled past in London, embarks on a new life in the countryside with her partner, Paul, and his two children. But during her role as stepmother, Paul’s growing detachment and the whispers of dark events surrounding the past threatens to destroy her. With her own demons lurking, Lauren's trust issues intensify as time goes by. As the truth begins to unravel, her idyllic life turns into a living nightmare, leading to a jaw-dropping finale. Highly recommended and worth a treasured credit, however, one of the best from Audible’s “Deals,” a section that should be checked often on a regular basis.

Excellent

Took me a minute to follow along and then just when I thought I totally knew, another plot twist. The book was excellent and the reader’s intonation throughout was brilliant!

Dragged

I listen to many audiobooks and haven’t had one seem to drag out so badly as this one. The first 3/4 of the book are mostly sad, depressing detail of the day to day life with no real plot development. It all happens in the last couple of hours - which were actually pretty good. Just a lot to get through for it to eventually pay off.
