Summary
When you put the past behind you, but the past won’t leave you behind....
Laura and Jack Harrington are the archetypal career couple. Good-looking and hard-working with a great life outside working hours. They live in a trendy flat and look forward to starting a family. But Laura is still haunted by her "dark days" - memories of being bullied by a girl at school. She is finding it hard to conceive and fears this is the result of the illness that followed her traumatic experience as a teenager.
As Laura fights to deal with her emotions, Jack throws himself into his work, having just landed himself a new job. When his new personal assistant arrives, he is relieved to find HR have found someone just as efficient as his previous one.
He has no idea how much effort she had gone to, to become Jack Harrington’s PA, who she really is, and what she has planned....
This tale of human weakness and revenge is an edge-of-your-seat story and will have listeners addicted right to the end.

Excellent read
Kept excited right through. Great read. I was bullied and it really can have a negative impact on you for the rest of one's life. Totally understood how Laura felt!!

Great but..
Great story and narration, but the editor needs sacking. So many times where the narrator repeats or corrects herself, which should have been removed.

Great listen. Once I’d started it I couldn’t stop. Loved the tension throughout and the play off between the two main characters.

Loved the story, although poor editing
Story line was great, although the ending was a little disappointing but then they often are.
So many mistakes on the editing side though - not the narration, but many many repeated lines.

Fire the editor!
Excellent read, thoroughly enjoyed and would recommend, but unfortunately peppered with various moments of repetition on the recording which sometimes happens but too many here!!

Powerful psychological thriller
A strong story of suspense, told through dual timelines. The characters are complex and fascinating. Bullying themes are explored throughout.

The recording needs attention
There is something wrong with the recording. It repeats whole sentences. I didn't love the story either. The characters were unlikeable and the story felt like a bunch of gender stereotypes.

Great book!!!!
I certainly hope this author gives us more of the same. It was never boring or dragged out. I even stayed up late listening. I highly recommend.

Don’t waste your time...or credit.
I should preface this with the inclusion that my favorite author is Gilian Flynn so maybe I’m just spoiled to having a book captivate me from beginning to end.
I hate not finishing a book, no matter how bad it is, but I definitely should’ve stopped around chapter 5 like I wanted. I’m not sure who it was that called this book “gRiPpInG”, “ChILLinG”, or even a thriller, but I know they must lead terribly boring lives. Thrilling, this was anything but. It only took me 72 chapters to become interested! The only good thing about this book was the end, and knowing I was about to return it and get my credit back. Lol
The book is terrible, the narration isn’t great (and made me sleepy), you can’t easily distinguish which character is speaking and have to wait for context clues to be sure, and there is a glitch that makes it repeat sentences every once in a while. How this book has 4 stars amazes me.

Weird repeating
The story was good, but the recording had a glitch causing it to repeat phrases/sentences on numerous occasions. A bit distracting.

Repeats
Liked the book, hated the production. There were so many repeats of the same audio that I lost count.

I want never gets
The story was really great once I got into it! The narrator could have been better. The two main characters were both female and it was hard for me to know who was speaking and when because the narrator never really changed her voice to differentiate them. The recording also had several times where the narrator would say a line, pause, then say the same line over again. Over all like I said the story was great and very interesting!

Loved it
Loved it! The story line was engaging. The characters well developed. Reader was perfect. I couldn’t wait to get to the end only because I was into it...I wanted to know how it would end!
