About this listen

Don't trust him. It wasn't me. It couldn't have been me.

Meet Evie, a young woman held captive by a man named Jim in the isolated New Zealand beach town of Maketu. Jim says he's hiding Evie to protect her, that she did something terrible back home in Melbourne.

In a house that creaks against the wind, Evie begins to piece together her fractured memories of the events that led her here.

Jim says he's keeping her safe. Evie's not sure she can trust Jim, but can she trust her own memories?

An incredible literary thriller for fans of best sellers such as Gone Girl, Before I Go to Sleep and Girl on the Train from an exciting new Australian voice.

read the book rather than listen

The story is OK but the narration is so monotonous. Not a single person to like in this story. The author's later stories are better

Wow!

That was a great story! The twists and turns were awesome. I’m not sure if I particularly enjoyed Tamara’s narration.... I think if I were to be physically reading the book I wouldn’t read the character’s interactions in such a monotone way... but I wonder if she was trying to get across Evie/Kate’s state of mind.... still, the monotony seemed to stem to the other characters as well which I didn’t understand. But the story was fantastic and the way it wrapped up was so good that I forgot all about how it was narrated. In all, everyone involved in the production of this book has done a really good job.

Good but slow and a little predictable

I like this author and the rich ways of describing the scene. I found it didn’t grip me as fast as the others. And only continued listening to confirm my prediction.

A Gripping yarn

As I live in Melbourne Australia. I could relate to this story and see how it could be. A well constructed story.

boring

boring, twisted but then predictable. the story is built around hating the dad, but then you feel sorry for him. and hate the daughter, when it was all quite pointless anyway.

What?

Very twisty book. But very frustrating. And confusing. Doesn't add up in the end.

Different

This was an intriguing read once I fell in with the jumps in time and memory. It jumps from time and place to different first person character but builds to it's completeness in the closing chapters, ending with a twist.
Very well executed.
