About this listen

They say every cloud has a silver lining....

When Freya Miller is struck by tragedy, losing her husband and her home within a short time, she is burdened with many worries. The main one being where she and her five-year old daughter, Skye, are going to live. A chance meeting with the charismatic Dr Marsden changes all that. He offers the young mother the most amazing opportunity: an apartment at one of London’s most exclusive addresses for a fraction of the market rental cost. It’s an offer Freya simply can’t refuse. Within a couple of weeks, Freya and Skye are moving into Adder House and meeting the other welcoming residents. They very quickly feel part of the family.

But just when Freya truly believes all her problems are history, a series of strange, unexplained occurrences begin. It leaves Freya with the unshakeable feeling that even when their apartment door is securely locked, she and her daughter are not alone. Freya thought she’d left all her troubles behind her, yet she soon realises there are problems here that are far more terrifying than before.

For behind the doors of Adder House, everything is most definitely not as it seems.

Old secrets refuse to stay buried, and someone is determined to keep a terrible past very much alive.

Great read! Really good thriller with interesting twists. Favourite character Lilly very surprising. The little girl’s mother terribly annoying.

K. L. Slater is a favourite of mine in the psychological suspense genre ... i enjoy her books immensly and audible productions always do her books justice. 💯%. This one has a basis in shocking fact and the interviews at the end were great. Thank you K.L.Slater, wonderful Tuppence and John (narrators) and all Audible staff. 👌👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Enjoyable Psych suspense

Beautiful. I closed my eyes and could see the house, apartment and garden. I imagined people in this story, it was delightful to listen to the narration. Loved the twist and my fear, dear. It could be a great movie too!

Twisty!

I preserved listening to this book. I didn't enjoy the story; it seemed far fetched. The narrator was good, but her child's voice was so annoying. It grated on me. I like K L Slater's books, but not this one.

Not my cup of tea

Loved it!

Over dramatised rather than actually suspenseful, flimsy plot line, annoying main character, predictable plot twist.
It’s obvious the author so badly wanted to create a fictional tale based on true but rather dark historical events. Unfortunately it’s clumsily put together, the equivalent of forcing a square peg into a round hole.

Missed the mark for me

Found this intriguing to listen to. So much going on had to stay focused.Enjoyed the storyline and narration. Over all has everything you want a good novel.

Intriguing

I enjoy reading psychological thrillers and quite like K.L. Slater but this isn’t her best book. Still a good read for most of the time, at the end though it all happens too quickly, as is the author got tired of telling the story.

not her best work
