About this listen

When a killer’s podcast reveals more than the truth....

Esme is a start-up success who runs her own successful media company and heads up a series of investigative podcasts. She also has a beautiful home, where she lives with her sister, Michelle, and her son, Zachary. Sure, there’s an ex-husband hanging around - Owen likes to pop round a bit too often - but everything is civilised and amicable. She has life all tied up.

But Esme knows that any successful podcaster is only as good as her last story, so she sets out on a new series of interviews to get to the truth behind Simone Fischer’s high-profile murder of her husband. Self-defence, crime of passion or coldly pre-meditated?

She emerges after one jail visit to discover that her sister has been viciously attacked and is in a coma. And so begins the unravelling of Esme’s life. Where she thought there was trust and loyalty, she slowly discovers deceit and betrayal. No one is quite who they seem - not even her closest family.

As the podcast interviews plunge deeper into revealing the unnerving psychology of a murderer, Esme must try to keep her own sanity intact. The truth - about Simone and Esme’s own family - is there, if Esme can only find it. But will her investigations reveal more than she ever wanted to know?

This taut psychological thriller is perfect for fans of Serial and Kathleen Barber’s Truth Be Told.

I enjoyed trying to predict the outcomes and the who did it. I felt sorry for the main character and was satisfied with the ending. Good story and recommend giving it a listen.

A good listen

Great story - kept me guessing. A bit strange that so many of the characters had such evil/corrupt behaviours though - seemed a bit OTT. Enjoyed the relationship between mother and son. One narrator (not the main one thankfully), sounded very inexperienced and not up to Audibles usual high standard unfortunately. Other narrators really good.

Good story but patchy narration

Extraordinary talent in creating so many different characters. Great plot! Very talented interpreters that makes this audiobook a captivating experience.

Captivating

Without giving away any plot lines,
You will think that you will have worked out in the first half of the book who are the "bad guys are" YOU WILL ALSO BE WRONG.

K.L SLATER is an absolute genius with her plot lists. This is one of the best books I have ever read and I must say, I have spent buckets of money buying credits on Audiobooks but I don't regret It. Ms Slater's books are worth every cent.

Not one of my favourites from this author although the narration was ok I found the story not so entertaining and as though it dragged a little

Ok, doesn't really grab you

This book kept me interested the whole way through. The characters were engaging, the plot twists were good and not ridiculous and I felt satisfied with the end points for each character. There was one main narrator with a few smaller parts for some of the minor characters and that was really well done and enjoyable to listen to.

Good pace and lots of interesting story threads. I enjoyed that there were multiple narrators.

Love this - the mix of podcast & story. Great plot - could put it down. Luck it’s an audio book so I can wear headphones & do other things while listening

This book was a bit slow to start but once it got going I couldn’t stop listeningand now it’s finished I want more. The main narration was great but when it changed for the podcast part it sounded very false or monotone it’s hard to explain.
Worth getting through 👍🏾👍🏾
