About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Can you stop a murder when it's already happened?

The book everyone has been talking about.

It's every parent's nightmare.

Your happy, funny, innocent son commits a terrible crime: murdering a complete stranger.

You don't know who. You don't know why. You only know your teenage boy is in custody and his future lost.

That night you fall asleep in despair. Until you wake...

...and it is yesterday.

Every morning you wake up a day earlier, another day before the murder. Another chance to stop it.

Somewhere in the past lie the answers, and you don't have a choice but to find them....

Critic Reviews

It's perfection, every word, every moment. A masterpiece . . . I had my mind blown apart. After I finished it I sat with my mouth hanging open in awe. One of the best books I've ever read (Lisa Jewell)
A mind-bending page-turning thriller. Non-stop thrills right from the start. A rare gem (Steve Wright)
Wow. Amazing! Loved every page . . . If you are looking for a summer read, I've found it! (Holly Willoughby)
Extraordinary (Harriet Tyce)
It's absolutely AMAZING. The plot is astonishing - original and ingenious (Marian Keyes)
The best book I have read in a very long time. Genius. Simply genius. This is McAllister as the very top of her consistently excellent game. Brilliantly plotted, perfectly paced, characters I was invested in. This is a masterclass of exactly what a novel should be. Taught, tense, not a wasted word. This brilliantly plotted novel had me on the edge of my seat. You have to read this book (Adele Parks)

Enjoyable read

A really enjoyable story that made me reflect on where I spend my time, with who and what I pay attention to. Also a reminder of past and what I am grateful for today.

Of course I’m writing this on the train, headphones in and head down in my phone.

A Well Written Story

This was my first time traveller style book, and I must say I'm thoroughly impressed with how well it is written. The story has unexpected twists and a fantastic, tie-it-all together ending. The narrator was easy to listen to and the audio was clear.

Big fan of Time travel stories

This was a clever story that kept me engrossed from the start till the very end. A great spin on the time travel theme.

So different from anything else I’ve read

This ended up being a great Audiobook! Initially I stopped listening very early into the book thinking it wasn’t right for me. A while later I gave it another go after finishing another book & having nothing else to listen to! So glad I did! It was gripping!! I did start to figure things for myself, but still loved the story!

Loved it!

Clever story, not too timey-wimey complex, lots of twists interspersed with some poignant moments. Also enjoyed the narrator’s voice.

Great story, beautifully performed

After the first few chapters I was hooked, wanting to know where the story was heading and caught off guard by all of the twists and turns.

I found the timelines easy to follow once the story started moving along.

Beautifully written and performed, I really enjoyed listening!

Loved this novel

I was a zombie for about 3 days whilst obsessively listening to this engaging, story with well developed characters and unexpected plot twists.
