About this listen

'Full of tension, urgency, atmosphere and feeling - this is Riley Sager at his very best' LEE CHILD

THE BRAND NEW HEART-STOPPING THRILLER FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR

On July 15, 1994, ten-year-old Ethan and his best friend Billy fell asleep together in their quiet New Jersey cul de sac.

In the morning, Ethan woke up alone. The tent was sliced open, and Billy was gone, taken. He was never seen again.

Thirty years later, Ethan has returned to Hemlock Circle, still desperate for answers.

Who took Billy?

Plagued by bad dreams and insomnia, he begins to notice strange things happening on the street under the cover of darkness. Someone is prowling the cul de sac when no one is awake to see them.

Are they still out there?

This isn't a bad neighourhood. These aren't bad people.

What if they are?

A gripping addictive listen

Another star turn from Riley. A superbly crafted narrative with satisfying twists and turns. A book to savour slowly to appreciate the perfection of his writing and pace. It took me over 20 hours to finish as I found myself relistening as I went. One of my top books this year. As always, his plots and characters are so cinematic and transport you to a place and time. There are moments when you'll need to have the lights on too! Very creepy and unsettling at times. The narration is perfectly executed and produced. One of my top books this year. Make it your next listen. You'll love it!

Confused

Honestly, I had high hopes for this one because of the all the reviews about it and I’m usually a faster reader BUT in all honestly, it dragged on for so long.

It got better after chapter 26 but for me there was no thriller, no suspense to pick you hooked only mystery which was fine I guess but it wasn’t the best in my opinion
