About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

THE MESSAGE HAS DISAPPEARED.
SO HAS YOUR BEST FRIEND . . .


Get ready for the most unputdownable thriller of 2024, from no.1 bestselling author K. L. Slater
Saffy is waiting to go into a job interview when she receives a text message from her best friend, Leona:
Can’t speak . . . don’t text or call . . . please just come

As Saffy struggles to understand what is happening the phone screen changes:
This message was deleted.
Saffy races to Leona’s house, but when her friend answers the door, she insists everything's fine. She doesn't know anything about the message. Saffy can tell something’s not right, but after looking around the house, she can’t think of anything else she can do.
Six hours later, Saffy gets a knock on the door. It's the police. Leona is missing, with her young child. There's blood everywhere.
And Saffy was the last one to see them alive . . .

One author you know is always reliably very good. A very well thought out complex suspenseful story narrated very well by Annabel Scholey. Many interesting characters that thankfully didn't confuse the plot and the story came together nicely.

Another good Slater

I was waiting for this book to be released as I’ve loved all previous titles by K.L Slater. And I must say, it was quite the let down and overall underwhelming. The characters names were frustrating to hear over and over, especially when narrated by someone with a mild lisp. The plot was a tad ‘all over the place’ and very unbelievable. Wasn’t gripping or intriguing at all. Which is unlike K.L Slater’s other books which I’ve thoroughly enjoyed.

Not great..

Not up to K L Slater's usual standard. Very droll and predictable storyline. Narrator rather expressionless.

Run of the mill

So we'll written, hiding all the clews till the end, this story grabs you and bundles you along, not wanting to miss a single clue! Narration was clear, expressive and thoroughly professional. Good book, strongly recommended.

Such a great mystery!
