About this listen

Soon to be an ITV drama starring Aidan Turner.

Joseph O'Loughlin appears to have the perfect life—a beautiful wife, a loving daughter and a successful career as a clinical psychologist. But nothing can be taken for granted. Even the most flawless existence is only a loose thread away from unravelling. All it takes is a murdered girl, a troubled young patient and the biggest lie of his life. Caught in a complex web of deceit and haunted by images of the slain girl, he embarks upon a search that will take him from London to Liverpool and into the darkest recesses of the human mind....

Critic Reviews

"Believable and authentic from the first sentence.... Robotham doesn't put a foot wrong in his plotting, pace or inventiveness." (The Australian)

"A truly classy thriller, beautifully crafted." (Australian Woman's Weekly)
