"This was yet another psychological masterpiece that had me gaping in shock at the unpredictable twists and turn, and this one is up there at the top for me with Freida McFadden’s earlier books!" [e-mail]

Kara has the perfect life—a thriving restaurant on Cornwall's picturesque coast, a devoted husband, Alistair, and their precious newborn daughter, Charlotte. But when Alistair receives a mysterious message from Sabine, the mother who abandoned him decades earlier, their idyllic life spirals into turmoil.

Haunted by family secrets and torn by conflicting loyalties, Alistair reluctantly allows Sabine back into his life. Kara, sensing danger yet driven by compassion, encourages the reunion, unaware that Sabine’s intentions are far darker than they appear.

As Sabine integrates herself into their family, strange and sinister events begin to unfold. Kara’s anxiety grows into paranoia as Charlotte's safety is threatened by forces closer than she ever imagined. Every secret revealed brings them closer to an unimaginable truth—one that could destroy their family forever.

In a race against time, Kara must confront the chilling past and unmask the truth before it's too late. But who can she trust when betrayal lurks around every corner?

AI narration

Pretty annoying. Was better at 1.5x speed. Why are you doing this to us Audible?!?

Great

Couldn’t stop listening -Voice very good!! Story was filled with twists -never could have guessed the ending!!!

The story is really frustrating but interesting

The AI narration is awful. I wish they would use real people to narrate. If Audible keeps using it, I may have to look for a new app. But the story was good although it makes you want to thump him on the head! Haha

Surprisingly good

Off now to find more by this author. I listened to the whole darn thing! I never do that!

AI NARRATION IS AN ABSOLUTE ABOMINATION

Great story, complicated but it comes together. I hate that the writer's work is being clouded by Virtual Voice narration. A lot of readers, myself included, cannot stand AI. This may be the thing to make me get rid of Audible altogether
