PREPARE TO BE HOOKED

FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF INVISIBLE GIRL

In a large house in London's fashionable Chelsea, a baby is awake in her cot. Well-fed and cared for, she is happily waiting for someone to pick her up.

In the kitchen lie three decomposing corpses. Close to them is a hastily scrawled note.

They've been dead for several days.

Who has been looking after the baby?

And where did they go?

Two entangled families.

A house with the darkest of secrets.

A compulsive thriller from Lisa Jewell.

    "Creepy, intricate and utterly immersive...." (Guardian)

    excellent narrators, brilliant story, twists and turns, a fascinating book that makes me want to read more of Lisa Jewell's books

    gripping, excellent story

    I absolutely couldn't stop listening. A perfect story for a long journey or day of chores--you'll be transported!

    Wonderful narrators, perfect narration for the story's voices. Great casting! (For Americans: if you have trouble with standard British accents, listen to the sample first).

    I tried to write a summary but anything I say is likely to spoil the story's layers. Give it a whirl!

    Gripping!

    English is my second langage, but I got very fascinated by this story, which, as incredible as it is, nonetheless remains in fact extremely plausible, to the point that it could be based on real facts, and may be it was somewhere. I highly recommend this work which is not only radiating tension, but also very sensitivity treated and with a great deal of tact, despite tackling delicate subjects such as child abuse and adolescent homosexuality. Awe-inspiring writing and reading down the line, I highly recommend!

    Absolutely brilliant

    I loved this book, disturbing as it was a lot of the time!! The timespans changing between chapters was so well done I found. Great characters and also very well read !!
    I will be looking at other books by this author for sure!
    Thank you!!

    Couldn’t put it down...!

    Not really what I was expecting from the description but it was one of those you cannot put down until the end. Full of twists and turns. Highly recommend the read. Great performances and well written.

    enjoyable

    I loved the narrators and how the story flows to a grand finale. I couldn’t wait to listen to the next chapter, will definitely be reading another of her books

    Gripping from the start

    The narrator did a great job and the story was suspenseful and I was impatient to follow it. However, at the end, I somehow found it lacking. The improbability of it all, the beginning felt artificially prolonged to create suspense. I wasn't a big fan of the story once it unravelled.

    Great narration, the story felt a little forced

    Obviously character development is not an issue for the author. The reader gets thrown lists of characteristics likes dislikes and quirks and can puzzle it out if he likes.
    The story is somewhat far fetched (would nobody wonder what’s going on, neighbors teachers friends? Would nobody report starving kids in a rich neighborhood?).
    The ending is so sugary sweet it leaves you dissatisfied. Even the little hint about Henry doesn’t make up for that.
    On the whole not worth listening to.

    Far fetched and dissatisfying
