4.25 Stars!

I really enjoyed this Audiobook! It was read perfectly by AJ Cook and I appreciated the alternate voice used for the Anonymous Caller
Spoiler (Chloe)


It was a very well written, fast paced story that well and truly kept me captivated. Reading that the author Lucinda Berry was a clinical psychologist made sense - the discussion of therapy and the like was relevant and made sense and I appreciated this!

The characters were interesting and realistic, and explored a very traumatic situation with tact and without mercilessly attempting to shock the viewer. I appreciated the plot development and while it wasn't quite a completely shocking twist, it did surprise me!
SpoilerAfter the introduction of doubt in our main character Felicia's son, I expected that it would slowly hint at him being the perpetrator of the crimes throughout the whole book, just to turn around and it actually be someone else! So I was actually a bit shocked when it only just alluded to him and then it actually ended being him.


I love a story that doesn't end with everything tied up in a neat little bow where everybody is happy, so this book did it for me!

Very well produced on all fronts! I definitely recommend a listen.

This was a super fast and quick audiobook, and loved the narrators. I pretty much predicted where it was going right away, but the narration had me hooked and wanting to keep going. I could not stop listening and finished it in an afternoon.
