About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Get the darkly compelling new novel from the Sunday Times best-selling author of The Chalk Man, The Taking of Annie Thorne and The Other People.
Five hundred years ago: eight martyrs were burnt to death.
Thirty years ago: two teenagers vanished without trace.
Two months ago: the vicar committed suicide.
Welcome to Chapel Croft.
For Rev Jack Brooks and teenage daughter Flo it's supposed to be a fresh start. New job, new home. But, as Jack knows, the past isn't easily forgotten.
And in a close-knit community where the residents seem as proud as they are haunted by Chapel Croft's history, Jack must tread carefully. Ancient superstitions as well as a mistrust of outsiders will be hard to overcome.
Yet right away Jack has more frightening concerns.
Why is Flo plagued by visions of burning girls?
Who's sending them sinister, threatening messages?
And why did no one mention that the last vicar killed himself?
Chapel Croft's secrets lie deep and dark as the tomb. Jack wouldn't touch them if not for Flo—anything to protect Flo.
But the past is catching up with Chapel Croft—and with Jack. For old ghosts with scores to settle will never rest....

I can’t recommend this book more, truly 5 stars
From the performances of the narrators to the story, this was the best experience I had on audible.

Slow burn but worth it.
At first I wasn't convinced but as I kept listen and the complex plot unravelled it hooked me in. great twists and turns. Definitely check it out.

Totally gripping & absorbing story
It’s rare that I feel compelled to listening to an audiobook in the shortest space of time possible because the urge to discover its resolution is so strong.
This was one of those books. I had an inkling of where some of the twists and turns of this narrative would take me but other storylines took me entirely by surprise.
A little scary and disturbing from time to time. But a fabulous story with an ending worth the time taken to listen while putting other tasks on hold for a while!
Recommend this one wholeheartedly!

Got me at the very end.
If you like your English village thrillers then you’ll definitely enjoy this. I think there was one plot hole but nothing too major.
Definitely got me in the very end.

Wow
I’m not the biggest thriller reader so it is perhaps not surprising that I did not see any of the twists coming. Also this book genuinely had me scared in some places. Could not stop listening to it - highly recommend.

The BEST book I've ever listened to
Finally, a performance that matches my expectations, and a brilliant story as well. If you want to feel like you're listening to a movie on TV, and enjoy a good murder mystery story, this is the book for you.
