An excellent thrilling story

I really enjoyed listening to this book, there were so many twists and turns that you weren't expecting that kept you gripped to the end.

Amazing plot but far too much detail!

I am so glad I persevered although it was hard work. The story itself was fantastic with twists and turns although the endless monologuing had me almost head butting my steering wheel in frustration. The reader was awesome in I See You which is why I picked this audio book but it was tough going and occasionally voices could be confused. Basically I would think this book is easier in book form do that you can skim through the copious description and endless psycho analysing of every moment!

Too Much Unnecessary Dialogue

May Be Some Spoilers

First book by this author and sadly probably my last. She is a good writer and initially I thought this was a really interesting storyline which certainly could and no doubt has happened to people. But, oh please.. I was getting so frustrated by the unnecessary and frankly boring dialogue for the most part of the book. On and on and on... Okay okay we know how Allison loves her daughter, yes we get the picture!
I tried to force myself to finish this book because I paid for it as I didn't have a credit. So annoying when you dislike a book so much and you've lost your money.
If a man knocked on my door one night and we were stupid enough to invite him in then more fool us. The tale he spins sounds pretty unbelievable but I could go with that. Would any family in this position want to get so close to this man and his family and so quickly? I doubt it.
It's a story really more about the character Allison more than any other character in the book... Allison focuses on herself so much. Daughter could have cancer and yet.. No one seems overly worried do they. You would imagine that Catharine herself would be breaking down and not able to attend school with that worry on her young shoulders ... but no.
Another story running alongside of the younger Allison and it's all very self pitying stuff. Why the author decided to do this I don't know.
Not a good psychological thriller at all, the only bit of psychological illness is disclosed at close to the end of the book. Sorry to the author but it's a no from me.

Good story but a bit ponderous

I enjoyed the story -usually love an Adele Parks. The main character irritated me though, her constant meandering thoughts slowed things down which was frustrating. Lots of twists and turns, some I saw coming, some I didn’t. If you like Adele Parks you’ll like this.

Comfortable yet surprising

A heartwarming story at a very comfortable pace but with a few good surprising moments. Excellent.

Average

The story was good, the plot was excellent and unexpected, however, after we found out the 'big twist' the story just changed and never went into detial, so ending was dissapointing.
