Publisher's Summary
A totally addictive and gripping psychological suspense thriller with a deadly twist.
Long blonde hair. Sparkling dark eyes. Perfect pearly white teeth. I’ve never met her before, but I know exactly who she is as I spot her through the crowds of the terminal. Because our new guest is the spitting image of the daughter we lost. And that’s exactly why I chose her.
From the moment our exchange student Tanya comes into our home, I feel like my daughter has come back to life. Tanya, with her long blonde hair and slender frame, looks so much like Anabel that sometimes I can almost pretend she didn’t die in that tragic accident.
Tanya really is the perfect guest–kind, polite, and always happy to help me in the kitchen. At last, a member of the family who compliments my beautiful house and enjoys my homemade dinners. And when she asks questions about my life, I feel I’ve finally found someone I can confide in.
My younger teenage daughter, Paige, isn’t so happy about our guest. She thinks it’s weird that Tanya looks like Anabel, and she hates it when she wears her sister’s old clothes. But then again Paige and Anabel always had a strained relationship.... And I’m certain that having another teenage girl in the house will help heal our family.
But now Paige is insisting I check Tanya’s records. She’s become convinced Tanya isn’t who she says she is. But I learnt a long time ago that sometimes it’s best not ask questions you don’t want to know the answer to. And I definitely don’t want Paige pulling this thread...because I’m growing suspicious that our new guest Tanya might have a secret. But I’m certain it is nothing in comparison to mine....
The absolutely binge-worthy and twisty psychological thriller that will have you guessing. Perfect for those who love gripping suspense and fans of Freida McFadden’s The Housemaid, The Girl on the Train, and Colleen Hoover’s Verity.

Highly Recommended, about 1 hour longer than ideal
NO SPOILERS, SAFE TO READ.
I've enjoyed this mystery. It's a combination of likeable and annoying character's and a great narrator. For the most part I've really enjoyed the story, it has plenty of complexity with enough unanticipated twists and turns going on to keep me hooked for the majority of the book. I really like the way the main families story came to a climax and how the situation was resolved. Then with a look into the near future for all the important characters, then delving into the past to answer what would ordinarily have been left a mystery, to explain the roots of two of the key characters.
Anyhow, with the help of two great narrators, I found this to be a really enjoyable listen and very much recommend it. I'm off to check out if more is on offer by this author and narrators.
