About this listen

Three-year-old Millie Everleigh disappears on a crisp winter’s day, and nothing is as it seems....

It’s the phone call every mother dreads.

I’m climbing into the car after a trip to the grocery store. As the engine starts, my phone rings. It’s my stepdaughter, Shelby, who is babysitting my three-year-old, little girl Millie.

"I only went upstairs for a second," she says through her sobs. "She’s gone."

I race home to find my blue-eyed baby girl missing and my heart ripped out of my chest.

When the police turn up, Shelby’s story starts to unravel. What is she hiding?

Then I get a message saying, "Your husband is not who you think he is." Could he be lying?

Suddenly, my family feel like strangers. Everyone has a secret - even me.

No one knows why I was late coming back from the store and the guilt I’ve been feeling ever since....

Once the truth comes out, all of our lies exposed, will it be too late to save my precious child?

A pulse-pounding psychological thriller about family secrets, shocking pasts, and the lies we tell ourselves in order to survive. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Liane Moriarty, and The Wife Between Us.

It was ok

3.5 stars ⭐️
The story was interesting enough, but it didn’t quite captivate me as a ‘psychological thriller’ which is what it’s described as.
It was well written but parts of the story were repetitive, particularly some of the characters thoughts.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
