About this listen

A totally addictive psychological thriller with edge-of-your-seat suspense

What really happened to his ex-wife?

Stroking her baby bump in the new home she shares with boyfriend Jack, Kara jumps at a knock at the door. On the doorstep stands Jack’s former mother-in-law.

Your boyfriend killed my daughter,’ she says.

Jack always said his ex, Natalia, disappeared on a family holiday. It’s a heartbreaking story – and Kara knows she’ll never replace his first love.

But why is the woman in front of her telling a different story?

Jack swears that this woman is lying. Kara wants to believe him…

But what about all those times he went silent when his ex’s name was mentioned? Why does he always get angry when Kara asks questions about the night Natalia died?

What if it wasn’t grief after all, but guilt?

Fans of The Housemaid, The Perfect Marriage and The Girl on the Train will be absolutely hooked on this nail-biting psychological thriller. Prepare to be gripped!
