About this listen
"You don't think Jamie and I have secrets, do you? No, we tell each other everything", she smiled. "Including your dirty little secret. So, thinking about it, maybe it's time to start being nice to me?"
The wife: Clare is ready for a break. It's been a tough year and now she wants to put her feet up. Arriving at the Italian villa for their summer holiday, she decides it's high time her husband and his family did some of the work. After all, her husband owes her....
The husband: Even though Dan had his head turned by someone else, he's realised the error of his ways. He's here now, and he says it's for keeps. Clare can trust him, can't she? At least he'll have his brother there, to keep him in line....
The brother: Jamie is the prodigal child, back in the family fold again, after years of travelling abroad. But when he gets to the villa, he's not alone. He's brought a wife, someone none of them have met before.
The sister-in-law: Ella is everything Clare isn't. Glamorous. Young. Influential. But she knows a secret about Clare. Something that has the power to break the whole family apart.
And there's someone who will do whatever it takes to make sure that this deep secret never comes to the surface.
An utterly gripping, twisty psychological thriller perfect for fans of Before I Go to Sleep, The Girl on the Train, and Date Night.
"Tense, atmospheric psychological thriller with more twists and turns than a rollercoaster. Impeccably written and a big fat 5 stars from me. Awesome!" (Number one best-selling author Angela Marsons)

Predictable
It was an ok book however it was very predictable and the narrator’s voice sounded like she was talking with a marble on her mouth. I was hoping it would be better as the book went on but was disappointed.

Need to slap the lead woman. Slap twice.
Oh why do these writers make these women weak and whimpy. I found this story so hard to listen to. The lead female I wanted to slap. God I hat these stories

Annoyance at lead women
Nearly gave up part way thru, then listened to bits of future chapters which I normally wouldn't do. Continued but characters frustrated me. Weak, bitter women. Narrator sounded like she was in a play which was very annoying.

Gripping story - well read
This story had me hooked from the start. I only listen whilst driving to and from work. This made my journey fly by and I couldn't wait to get back in the car to hear more

Gripping
This story was very gripping. However, I felt that the story dragged on and felt like it wasn't going anywhere until the last 10 chapters. That being said, the dialogue between the two main characters was brilliantly written and it was really quite a challenge to put down towards the end.

Easy reading . Not particularly mysterious or thrilling
This story was easy reading and entertaining, however I found it to be fairly predictable.
The characters were all quite annoying in their own right. Not relatable or believable, and often far fetched in their behaviors.
The narration was not great . The ‘written’ narrator was said to be in her 40s but sounded in her 70s instead. Didn’t love the reading in the audio.

Horribly narrated!
I came close to returning this book as it’s so badly narrated. It’s a shame as the story itself is engaging but the narrator has an overly dramatic style which makes everything sound cliched. If I had of read this as a book I’d have enjoyed it, unfortunately I felt like I was watching a poorly acted community drama group play.

Predictable
I guessed the twist fairly early on and found there was too much time spent making one character wholly unlikeable then suddenly a flurry to make them sympathetic again. Characters were a bit one dimensional and plot a bit dull.
