About this listen

Headstrong journalist Anna Rothman knows what suicide looks like - her own husband killed himself five years ago. When Elly Swift, an agitated passenger beside her on a train, leaves a locket in Anna's bag before jumping onto the tracks, Anna starts asking questions. But everything points to suicide and the police close the case.

However, Anna believes that Elly's fears for Toby, her young nephew who was snatched from St. Stephen's church six months ago, fail to explain the true reason behind Elly's distress. Through a series of hidden messages Elly left behind, Anna embarks on a dangerous crusade to track down Toby and find Elly's killer.

But nothing is as it seems and Anna opens a can of worms that throws into question even her own husband's suicide - before the threads of the mystery converge in an astonishing conclusion.

brilliant

It has been a while since I' have read a book I couldn't put down, but this was one of them. Well developed characters, likeable and realistic characters. An easy story to follow, I did not need to re-read parts to understand what was going on, there was no obscurity. The scenes were recreated vividely in my mind, and no words were wasted. Every part of this book contributed to the main story. Characters' back stories were interesting and relevant. A little bit of a thriller, and a lot of mystery. An engaging and intriguing mystery, I wanted to know who did it. Mild twists and turns that were believable but still made me gasp. Such a well written novel, I will be reading more from this author. The narrator for the audible version was excellant, I found her voice pleasant and her diction excellant with appropriate tones and accents.
