A heart-pounding psychological thriller from bestseller Nina Manning

One woman's past could cost her everything...

Frankie Keegan is struggling. While she tries to make strides in her career, life at home is slowly unravelling as she is haunted by the secrets of her past.

Someone else remembers...

As the dark nights draw in, the anniversary of the loss of her brother looms and Frankie is drawn back to the memories of that fateful night 20 years previously. As she descends into a guilt-ridden state, she begins to suspect that someone else is also remembering that night and they are determined to terrify her...

Can she confront her past before it's too late?

From the international bestselling author of The Daughter In Law, a gripping psychological thriller about family, secrecy and grief - with a twist you won't see coming. Perfect for fans of K L Slater, Shalini Boland and Lisa Jewell.

Although the narrator had an easy listening voice, the last couple of words of each sentences faded out. It meant you had to have the volume higher so you could catch the quiet words or keep winding back to re-listen.
Storyline was ok, not gripping but easy to follow.

I often don’t leave reviews but found the narration style so odd that I thought it was worth mentioning to other potential readers.

Narration was flawed

The narrator did a good job in a somewhat monotone novel.
The main character spends to much time wallowingin her own misery, and the relationship with her brother is a bit to intense.

not bad but not great

Enjoyed this story especially after some average storyline. Enough going on to keep you interested. Only fault was some of the narration was quiet apart from that was fine. overall a good book.

interesting

Was a good story and had a great ending but I struggled very much to empathise with or even like the main character. The whole time, I couldn't help but wonder why the husband stayed with her.
If you've ever had a creepy predatory boss this book may evoke ptsd sypmtoms. I think he was supposed to be likeable but he really wasn't.

Great Plot, Annoying Characters

reader was a bit annoying as last word in every sentence she drifted off to quiet in..had to turn v up to be slightly too loud just to hear these words

I really struggled with this one. The narrator basically whispered the last 2 or 3 words in every sentence, it was very difficult to hear, even with earphones in. Made it hard to follow the story. The story itself was good but got a bit hard to follow the back and forwards, and did get quite repetitive at times.
Still, had a nice little twist to the end.

Reasonably Good story

The storyline was good enough and kept me engaged throughout.
The narrators voice lovely and easy to listen to.
Problem was, at the end of a lot of sentences the narrators voice fades away and words missed. Often i had to rewind. I kept thinking i had an incoming call, or text. Disconcerting.
Otherwise a good listen.

A good listen, but…

The narrator spoilt it, she kept trailing off at the end of sentences, which distracted me and I would miss what was said.

Better to read the book

solid story
