About this listen
You'll be hooked by the first moment and shocked by the last....
The twisty new thriller from the number one best-selling author of Friend Request.
Eleven murders. Twenty-five years ago.
Are some truths better left buried?
On 15th June 1994, Travis Green—husband, father, upstanding citizen—walked through the streets of Hartstead and killed 11 of his neighbours. The final victim was four-year-old Cassie Colman's father.
As the 25-year anniversary approaches, Cassie would rather forget the past—even as her mother struggles to remember it at all. Then something hidden in her mother's possessions suggests those 11 murders were not what everyone believes.
Once Cassie suspects she's been lied to about the most important event of her life, she can't stop digging up the past.
But someone will do anything to keep it buried....

Brilliant
A brilliant read. Loved the interpretation of motherhood - a side theme but integral to a very realist response to becoming a parent. It's not always a bed of roses. The actual story was great but I particularly loved the relationships within the book.

Mixed Bag
There are some people who will find this book utterly 10/10 even 11/10. For those of us who are a bit jaded - it is not predictable - but a overworn trope that surely has had it's day. Really, the formula is too obvious and that really spoils it a little for me. So if you like "Genre Fiction" you'll love this, so definitely give it a go, because it does come together very well. One other note of disappointment and again this is very personal, I found the timbre of Hattie Ladbury's voice very confusing. She is a brilliant narrator and handles the genders and differentiations with excellence. However, and this may have been just me, I spent the entirety of the book thinking she was over 55 and wondering why a woman of that age was chosen to narrate a first person protagonist narrative when the character was supposed to be decades younger. It became really irritating and definitely interfered with my enjoyment of an otherwise reasonable book. (I did a Google search when I finished the book. Vale Hattie )

I don't know whether I liked this book or not.
The narration and actual writing deserve 5 Stars but, the story not so much. Truthfully, I am not really sure what story I was actually listening to. The mystery of the anniversary that promised so much, just petered out. I am left with the nagging question; was the anniversary really the story or was it Cassy's journey as a daughter and single mother. The whole thing reminded me of a long meandering river that inextricably moves forward but eventually disappears without making much impact.
