Summary

A chance to reconnect.

A chance to get revenge . . .

Emily Toller has tried to forget her time at university and the events that led to her suddenly leaving under a cloud. She has done everything she can to forget the shame and the trauma–and the people involved. She has tried to focus on the life she has built with her children and husband, Nick.

But events like that can’t just be forgotten. Not without someone answering for what they’ve done. 

When an invitation arrives to a University reunion, everything clicks into place. Emily has a plan.

Because if you can’t forget–why not get revenge?

A fresh, original and strikingly relatable psychological thriller, perfect for fans of ANATOMY OF A SCANDAL.

Critic reviews

"An utterly addictive, deliciously dark look at the underside of glamorous university life.... An absolute five-star read." (Gytha Lodge)

"I was completely hooked. Reminiscent of Big Little Lies." (Victoria Selman)

Great story, until the end

Hated the end, really ruined the story for me. Argh. It’s meant to be “I’m a strong independent woman” and all it really is “I’m a selfish woman who ruined someone’s life and now won’t tell them the truth as it doesn’t suit me”.

Unsatisfying ending

This story is quite slow, and the ending is pretty unbelievable and unsatisfying given the build up. The main character isn’t very likeable.

Rather unbelievable story

It started out ok but became more unbelievable and far fetched as the story progressed . The main character Emily is not very appealing .

CRINGE

The cringeworthy narration combined with dreadful dialogue was only rivalled by the deeply unlikeable protagonist. Was after a beach read, ended up ditching after Henry tells her he has “chills multiplying”. Worst thing I’ve attempted listening to in a long time!

Less is more, I think …..

Starts out fine and goes along mostly fine but Polly just doesn’t know where to stop. The plot thickens and thickens and thickens till …… “Call the police!” Overall, silly.

Bit long winded

It went on a bit and as a previous reviewer said was quite a predictable conclusion.

Annoying

Emily was such a victim from the beginning no wonder she had no friends. I almost stopped listening once or twice as it was so irritating. I couldn’t really appreciate the writing or characters as I could beyond her being such a victim.

overall very good, although I did predict the end

narration was fab. I liked it all.
An easy listening book I'd call it! But I still couldn't wait for each chapter!
