About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

We’ve all done things we’re ashamed of...

When Ava arrives at Brodie’s Watch, she thinks she has found the perfect place to hide from her past. Something terrible happened, something she is deeply ashamed of, and all she wants is to forget.

But the old house on the hill both welcomes and repels her and Ava quickly begins to suspect she is not alone. Either that or she is losing her mind.

The house is full of secrets, but is the creeping sense of danger coming from within its walls, or from somewhere else entirely?

Critic Reviews

"Bone chilling. Gerritsen plays on our fears." (Daily Mail)

love Tess she is an awesome writer but this book is very different from her other books but I still liked it was a good story in the end.
Hillary Huber who read the story did an excellent job, will definitely look out for her name when choosing books, her voice is so soothing and not annoying like some people's voices are.

Different

This was a good book. Personally I think it could have done without the ghost story and focused more on the other parts to make it more interesting.
Most aspects of the ghost story were pretty silly. But I’ll still give this 4 stars as I Love Tess Gerritsen and her books.

Intriguing

Having read many other books by this author, and finding them thrilling, I was disappointed with this one. Found it terribly slow and hard work to get through. Nothing thrilling here.
