Story
In a peaceful coastal town, a young woman is found brutally murdered, a piece of Scripture held tightly in her hand. Local detective Charlotte Callaghan is put on the case, and she’s glad for the distraction - Gull Bay can be a hard place to keep a secret, and she’s holding on to a few. After Charlotte asks her brother, Father Joseph Callaghan, about the verse, her suspicions fall on his parishioners. Then a second victim is found, along with another biblical message.

The residents in Brisbane's Riverview apartment block barely know each other. They have no idea of the loneliness, the lost hopes and dreams, being experienced behind their neighbours' closed doors. Vera, now widowed, is trying her hardest to create a new life for herself in an unfamiliar city environment. Unlucky-in-love Maddie has been hurt too many times by untrustworthy men yet refuses to give up on romance. Ned, a reclusive scientist, has an unusual interest in bees and worm farms. Meanwhile, the building's caretaker, Jock, has all but given up hope of achieving his secret dream.

Story
In 2005, Marin Katich, living in Croatia under an alias, is being watched. Before the year is out, he has been assaulted, arrested, charged with serious war crimes and locked up in Scheveningen Prison in The Hague, waiting for his case to come before the International War Crimes Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. In Sydney, Anna Rosen, a freelance journalist, is sent photos on her computer of a man she knows to be dead - gunned down in a brutal ambush in Bosnia over a decade ago. A man she'd once loved but who had betrayed her. Is it possible the photos really are of Marin Katich?

Story
It was an ordinary day in 2016. In Gatwick Airport, Jonathan and his wife, Anna, were having breakfast with their two little children while waiting for their flight to be called. And then it happened, a familiar sensation that Jonathan hadn't had for decades: an out-of-body experience that transported him to another place, the safe place he used to escape to in his mind when he was a boy.

Story
Marissa Irvine arrives at 14 Tudor Grove, expecting to pick up her young son Milo from his first playdate with a boy at his new school. But the woman who answers the door isn't a mother she recognises. She isn't the nanny. She doesn't have Milo. And so begins every parent's worst nightmare. As news of the disappearance filters through the quiet Dublin suburb and an unexpected suspect is named, whispers start to spread about the women most closely connected to the shocking event. Because only one of them may have taken Milo - but they could all be blamed.

Enjoyable story spoilt by awful accent
This was an interesting idea for a story and the idea that no-one is really as they seem was a good one. The flawed characters were kept moderately real and many issues faced by the average person were addressed that is all except for the character Alice who gave fleeting acknowledgement of her coping mechanism for the stresses of new motherhood. It was disappointing that it was glossed over a bit while the issues of other characters were given a large amount of attention. What drove me crazy was the TERRIBLE Australian accent.. It became so incredibly irritating and when koala "bears" were referred to I almost gave up. The author and narrator really needed to get the Australian character so much more believable. He sounded so unlike any Aussie Ive ever heard (and I live in Australia) and his stereotypical characterisation was pretty awful. I listened to the book while driving and walking and the whole time I fluctuated between enjoying a pleasant story to being completely exasperated by the narration.

Lovely Story
Really loved this book. 2 downsides though was the Aussie accent by the narrator (made me cringe every time) and the constant use of the word ‘obviously’ by the author.
But overall a really lovely book. Light and refreshing

Fabulous read
I loved every moment of this warm, caring, funny and so very human book. I’m an Aussie myself and found Riley’s accent very very bad and the simplistic portrayal of an Aussie character, but the story was so lovely I just put up with it. Highly recommend this to anyone. I won’t forget it in a hurry.

Enjoyable
Overall, I enjoyed the story and liked most of the characters. It was one of those stories where you feared a too-neat "happy ever after ending", but fortunately the author managed to avoid this to a degree.
I know how difficult it is for the narrator, especially when there are male and female parts and different accents and dialects involved. However, I have to say that this was the worst Australian accent ever!

Absolutely wonderful!
Loved this so much! If you are an Aussie my advice is to view the accent as an amusing example of how we sound to others 🤣 Wonderful story that was just a joy to listen to, I hope there is a sequel one day ❤️

Could handle the accent
I really wanted to enjoy this book & I tried to push through, but the Aussie accent (as others have said) is appalling. I couldn’t keep listening to the book & returned it.

Great book. Too bad for the terrible Australian accent
Loved this book.
Think it would be better to read than listen to as the Aussie accent is unbearable!!!
