Summary

A shadow follows Sophie. Watching. Waiting.

Her instinct tells her that it's someone she knows. But who? The man she met Internet dating? The nurse caring for her ill mother? Or is her mother faking her illness?

The only thing she knows is that she can't trust anyone. Sophie must delve into a dark history to reveal her stalker. But there are some stories that should never be told.

Critic reviews

"So many interesting characters that I ended up suspecting them all, but then the story twists and you're like... what?! Loved it." (Shalini Boland, author of The Girl from the Sea)

Good story .. but hated the narration

I really struggled with the narrators voice she made all the characters sound like old men and women. Even though the main character Sophie was supposed to be 35 she sounded 75. The story was good but the ending weak.

Not for me

I just didn’t think an awful lot happened for a long time and then when it did I found it quite confusing. I normally like this author’s books but this one wasn’t a hit for me.

Very descriptive, dark story

Very descriptive, I worked out the missing link very early on. Good narrator. Similar story line to other of the authors books.

Is was ok.

It was a slow, boring story. The ending was ok. Trigger warning for anyone that's going through or gone through a family member having alzheimer's as this is most of the story.

Gave up

Gave up. I am not trying to be rude but I could not get past the old and whiny sounding for 35 year old?? Main character’s voice. It would be fine for an elderly person but it inhibited my visualising. I suppose it is a matter of taste but I could not past the voice and quit! I normally enjoy this author but not this voice.

Good story line if a little irritating

Wasn’t sure I could tolerate the narrators voice but the storyline was gripping enough to keep me hooked. Was worth the listen and would recommend.
