About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The new heart-pounding novel from Sunday Times best-selling author Claire Douglas.

It was the house of their dreams. Until the bodies were found....

Bodies found under patio.

When pregnant Saffron Cutler moves into 9 Skelton Place with boyfriend Tom and sets about renovations, the last thing she expects is builders uncovering a body - two bodies, in fact.

Police investigate.

Forensics indicate the bodies have been buried at least 30 years. Nothing Saffy need worry herself over. Until the police launch a murder investigation and ask to speak to the cottage's former owner - her grandmother, Rose.

Owner questioned.

Rose is in a care home, and Alzheimer's means her memory is increasingly confused. She can't help the police, but it is clear she remembers something.

A killer at large?

As Rose's fragmented memories resurface and the police dig ever deeper, Saffy fears she and the cottage are being watched.

What happened 30 years ago?

Why did no one miss the victims?

What part did her grandmother play?

And is Saffy now in danger?

Absolutely loved the plot & the twists

Medium pace. Beautifully interwoven. Multiple POVs. Didn't enjoy Theo's narration.

Must read for thriller lovers.

The Old saying- All is fair in Love and...

Very well layered characters. The kind of book that even if you pause it to attend something else; at the back of your head you are still thinking what was happening in the story and who could be the culprit of it all.

The twist was unpredictable

Hated theos voice over… had to focus hard to understand his narration. Otherwise the story was very interesting
