About this listen

My family said he killed my mother. They lied....

I was just a little girl, fast asleep in my stroller, the day my mother was killed. I don’t remember anything about the sunny day that turned so dark.

She’d be so happy for me now, 20 years later, with my dream job as a photographer, and I’m sure she’d love my new boyfriend, Gabriel. But all my happiness vanishes in a heartbeat when the man from our past walks toward me, his eyes on me for just a fraction too long.

I recognize his face from the picture in the papers. He killed my mother.

I try to run, but he wants me to listen. He says that he is innocent and that my family has been lying to me for years.

My father and sister tell me to stay away. They remind me that because of him my mother never got to tuck me in at night or ease me through my first heartbreak. Gabriel says he could be dangerous. But when he is found dead, I am shaken to my core. Who needed to keep him quiet?

I won’t feel safe until I find out what he wanted to tell me. But when I find that my father has lied about the past and Gabriel has hidden photos of my mother under his bed, I realize I can’t trust anyone. I want the truth. But if I find it, will my life be in danger?

An absolutely addictive listen that will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about your family. Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train, Lisa Jewell, and Shari Lapena.

There is a lot going on in the story, with new pieces being constantly added, yet it all comes together really well and is easy to follow.
I thought the narration was excellent and found it easy to know which character was talking.
