About this listen
A mother desperate for the truth. A daughter hiding a terrible secret.
Melanie Oak appeared to have the perfect life. Married to her childhood sweetheart, Jacob, the couple live with their beautiful, loving, teenage daughter, Beth, in a pretty village. Nothing can shake her happiness - until the day that Beth goes missing, and is discovered beaten almost to the point of death, her broken body lying in a freezing creek on the marshes near their home. Consumed with grief, Melanie is determined to find her daughter's attacker. Someone in the village must have seen something. Why won't they talk?
As Melanie tries to piece together what happened to Beth, she discovers that her innocent teenager has been harboring some dark secrets of her own. The truth may lie closer to home and put Melanie's life in terrible danger.
A completely gripping psychological thriller with a twist you won't see coming. Fans of The Girl on the Train, The Sister and Before I Let You In will be captivated.

Tedious and predictable.
Would you try another book written by Barbara Copperthwaite or narrated by Alison Campbell?
No re the author and possibly re the narrator.
What will your next listen be?
Not sure
Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Alison Campbell?
Not sure. I don't think anything could have enlivened such a tedious book.
What character would you cut from The Darkest Lies?
All of them!
Any additional comments?
I listened to the end waiting for the promised amazing twist. When I realised there wasn't one, I skipped several chapters just to get to the end.

Narrator ruined a good story.
Narrator was absolutely terrible! I just couldn’t loose myself in a story that was so painful and sad. Tragic story with disturbing descriptions. I have read all of Copperthwaite’s books, this one I wish I didn’t come across!
