Publisher's Summary
In this thrilling gothic suspense debut by Sara Foster in the tradition of Rosamund Lupton and Sophie Hannah, a young mother searches Yorkshire’s windswept moors for the truth behind her husband’s mysterious disappearance.
The answers are hiding Beneath the Shadows
When Grace’s husband, Adam, inherits an isolated North Yorkshire cottage, they leave the bustle of London behind to try a new life. A week later, Adam vanishes without a trace, leaving their baby daughter, Millie, in her stroller on the doorstep. The following year, Grace returns to the tiny village on the untamed heath. Everyone - the police, her parents, even her best friend and younger sister - is convinced that Adam left her. But Grace, unable to let go of her memories of their love and life together, cannot accept this explanation. She is desperate for answers, but the slumbering, deeply superstitious hamlet is unwilling to give up its secrets.
As Grace hunts through forgotten corners of the cottage searching for clues and digs deeper into the lives of the locals, strange dreams begin to haunt her. Are the villagers hiding something, or is she becoming increasingly paranoid? Only as snowfall threatens to cut her and Millie off from the rest of the world does Grace make a terrible discovery. She has been looking in the wrong place for answers all along, and she and her daughter will be in terrible danger if she cannot get them away in time.

Atmospheric thriller set on the moors, just in time for Christmas.
Fantastic story, well paced and with a handful of decent (if slightly obvious) plot twists. Thoroughly enjoyed. Narrator’s accent added to the story. A great atmospheric read for the Christmas break.

Tangled family secrets
I found the book interesting but, once the answers were revealed I still wondered why the baby had been left in its pram on the porch, given the father's fate. The narrator was easy to listen to but occasionally a female voice sounded a little male causing a brief confusion as to who was talking when in a crowd.
Overall a good read/ listen.

A good, easy listen
I enjoyed the book. I could relate to the characters and the narration was good. I love books in settings like this, so that's always a plus for me. I would read other books by Sara Foster.

Good read
Kept me interested and I enjoyed listening. Bit of a plot twist which wasn't predicated at all.

Suspense with the hint of romance
A slow start but a great ending. An usual and lovely story with interesting intertwined characters.
