Summary

The thrilling standalone novel from a bestselling author, perfect for fans of Lucy Foley and Tana French.

IT WAS THE CRIME THAT SHOCKED A NATION.

The Flowers were the perfect family. Until the day fifteen-year-old Joseph shot dead his parents and baby brother whilst his younger sister Eve hid. The family home became known as ‘The Red House’, the place where the walls were covered in blood.

THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD THE KILLER.

No one knows why Joseph murdered his family: the following day he crashed his car and has been in a coma for two decades. Eve’s always known he did it; she saw the crime, after all.

WHAT IF THEY WERE WRONG?

But how reliable a witness is a five-year-old? Now an adult, Eve is forced to re-examine her memories when disturbing new evidence about the case comes to light. Because if Joseph didn’t do it, then the killer’s still out there – and they’re coming back for the girl who escaped…

A great listen

First time I have ever come across this author - this book deserves to be more well known, it's a really excellent thriller and has just about the best double plot twist at the end l have heard in ages. The narration is excellent throughout. Definitely recommend if you want something a bit different from the usual domestic thriller

Originality

I liked this story for its plot and originality. what I didn't like is eels and snakes had to shut off as I hate these creatures. Very intriguing story with twists and turns.

Gripping story, twists and turns keep you guessing

I wasn’t familiar with this author before but will definitely be checking out their other work. Plot was interesting from the beginning and actually kept me guessing - I didn’t see the end coming, but it was very well written. Performances very good too
