Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Jenna is a wife, a mother, a doctor. She’s also the victim of a stalker.

Every time she leaves her house, she sees him. Disturbing gifts are left at her door. Cruel emails are sent to her colleagues. She has no idea who this man is, but she feels powerless against him.

Until the day he is brought into her hospital after a serious accident, and Jenna is given the chance to find out once and for all why this man is tormenting her. Now, the power is all hers.

But how many lines is she willing to cross to take back control of her life?

"Twisty and addictive - I loved One Step Behind." (Louise Beech, author of I Am Dust)

Narration is ruining this book for me

Still listening to the book and although I’m quite enjoying the plot, the narration of the children’s voices is horrendous and making me consider not finishing because it’s actually ruining the audio experience for me. I actually dread the parts with children and unfortunately that’s quite a substantial part of the book

Ok until the last chapter where it then took a sharp chaotic nose dive. 😔

The story was going good until the 'whodunit' big reveal at the end which was just so bizarre and silly.
I don’t know why authors insist in a big climactic finish when sometimes, (especially in this case) less is more.
The narration of the children’s voices drove me insane.
