PREPARE TO BE HOOKED
FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF INVISIBLE GIRL
In a large house in London's fashionable Chelsea, a baby is awake in her cot. Well-fed and cared for, she is happily waiting for someone to pick her up.
In the kitchen lie three decomposing corpses. Close to them is a hastily scrawled note.
They've been dead for several days.
Who has been looking after the baby?
And where did they go?
Two entangled families.
A house with the darkest of secrets.
A compulsive thriller from Lisa Jewell.

Nothing is never as it seems...
Imagine having complete strangers come to stay just for a few days, in your home, who slowly & surely destroy all you know, love & believe in...
Definitely worth every moment spent in this story....

LOVED it
This book had me wondering! After steering it and getting used to the quick chapter changes I was hooked!! Very well written! I just wanted it to keep going would be my only downfall of the book. I didn’t want it to end! :(

Not a 5 Star for me.
I generally give full points for most of the books I listen to, but at the end of this one I’m left asking “Well what was that all about” I’m not sure why but this book just didn’t catch me or take me for a ride… Maybe others will find this an amazing book but not this time for me

Great story with twists and turns
Really enjoyed this story. The performances were great, and all twists and turns were resolved well.
The only downside were the similar names that I kept getting confused with, but other than that, it kept me guessing until the end!

Great Story!
Enjoyed listening - definitely a story I couldn't stop listening to however, it left me with a few unanswered questions, so am hoping that there may be a follow up to see how peoples lives progress.. Narrator was engaging and a pleasure to listen to.
