About this listen

Living a lie for 21 years - and now the past has caught up with him.... A first-rate thriller from the Sunday Times number one best-selling author of Six Years.

Grace Lawson is living a happy, straightforward life in the suburbs with her husband, Jack, and two young children. But that security is about to come to a brutal end.

For when Grace picks up a set of holiday snaps, amongst them is one shot that doesn't fit: a faded image of a life that Grace doesn't recognise and of her husband as she never knew him.

Within 12 hours, Jack has disappeared, a brutal hitman is stalking her family and the safe world she knows has been turned upside down. And all Grace can see is that the past is coming back to haunt the present and people are getting hurt....

Loved it! The narrator grated at times as she couldn't keep accents the same. Still worth listening too.

It was a battle to listen to this because the performer has zero scope with getting different character voices, makes it seem like the same person is talking with a subtle difference. But the story itself was worth the perseverance

Great story, terrible performer

An storyline that would've been fine to listen to was destroyed by an awful narrator. So annoying! Why don't you ensure that the narrator is at least halfway decent?

Poor narration

The story line is fine but it has to be one of the worst narrators I have ever had to listen to.
I almost stopped after the Prologue.

OMG

Great twists, disappointing narrator, a bit too similar to a previous, better Coben. Entertaining.

Coben lays Twisting Tale

I thought some of the dialogue was a bit weak.also the reader spoke a bit too quick

The plot

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I love Harlan Coben stories, and would rate them as five star most of the time. It is hard to believe that the same author wrote this book. I started to wonder if it was a product of AI trying to imitate Coben's style. In the end I abandoned it before it was finished. I hope this is a one-off flop. Very poor narration to boot.

Very disappointing
