About this listen

Then: Morning light shines into the nursery, casting shadows across the pale pink walls and wooden cot in the middle of the room. She opens the door expecting to hear the soft coo of her daughter, Sofia, stretching herself awake. But the room is silent. The cot is empty. Her little girl has vanished....

Now: Twelve years have passed, but Emily will never forget the night her life changed forever, and she’s happy to have her daughter back beside her. A teenager now, Sofia, who was once a star student, is getting into trouble at school, and she’s started asking questions about when she was a baby, but Emily can’t tell her what really happened the night she went missing. Nobody would understand why Emily did what she did, and if anyone ever found out, she could lose her daughter forever.

But when Emily catches Sofia messaging a stranger online, and as she reads the last message received, her heart pounds in her chest.

Your mother isn’t who you think she is.

Days later, Emily returns home to find the house silent. She checks every room, but Sofia has vanished, again. She shudders as she remembers that night in the nursery. Has her past finally caught up with her? And is she already too late to save her precious daughter?

A completely gripping, utterly twisted thriller that will leave your jaw on the floor. Perfect for fans of Gone Girl, The Wife Between Us, and The Woman in the Window.

Intriguing from start to finish with a real twist at the end. I didn't see that coming!!

Wow!

I really enjoyed this as it resonated with my own life (not the really bad bits. )🤣
I thought there was more than enough twists to keep me interested. I loved how the author thought things were finally on track but then inferred that she was wrong.

Did not enjoy. Slow burn and stuck it out to the end. Not worth it

Boring

This was an awful listen. The author ‘tells rather than shows’. Eg at the end of each chapter she says ‘little did I know things were about to get worse.’ How bout just show us that things get worse? Ok plot but horrendous writing. Really wish I hadn’t wasted a credit on this!

Terrible writing

I listened to the end but only because I’m no quitter lol! Story had plenty of twists and turns but were pretty far fetched and unbelievable. Didn’t rate it 🤷‍♀️

Hard work
