Summary

One woman’s reappearance throws her family into turmoil, exposing dark secrets and the hidden, often devastating truth of family relationships.

Kate Bennett vanished from a parking lot eleven years ago, leaving behind her husband and young daughter. When she shows up at a Montana gas station, clutching an infant and screaming for help, investigators believe she may have been abducted by a cult.

Kate’s return flips her family’s world upside down—her husband is remarried, and her daughter barely remembers her. Kate herself doesn’t look or act like she did before.

While the family tries to help Kate reintegrate into society, they discover truths they’ve been hiding from each other about their own relationships. But they aren’t the only ones with secrets. As the family unravels what happened to Kate, a series of shocking revelations shows that Kate’s return is more sinister than any of them could have imagined.

Story: could have been more. Narration: big no

I really enjoyed “When she returned”, so I hoped I would feel the same for this book.
The story was reasonable, but it lacked perspective.
I’d have like to hear more from the killer’s perspective. Or from Paige.
The audio was really bad. Ella was in a horrible situation, but the extremely whinny voice was a bit much

Slow but gripping

It felt like the story could have been half of what it was, but it kept me hooked all the way to the end. Narration was good except, when they narrated as the dad.

A Good Listen

I enjoyed this story and it was read well. The subject gave for interesting thinking. I immediately purchased another book by the writer and will keep a close eye for her books now.

Gripping from start to finish

Very gripping story. I felt so gripped by this story, it was an emotional roller-coaster, you get taken on a journey by each of the characters, seeing things by different perspectives. Loved it, totally lost myself in this gripping story.

Formulaic

Rather prosaic book in my opinion. It’s nothing new, that I haven’t read before, and I saw the “twist” at the end from a mile off

After the superb The Perfect Child book, I was very disappointed by this

fast phased and intense!

i really enjoyed this one! it was fast phased and kept me at the edge of my seat most of the time. if you like domestic thrillers, which involve cults you'll surely enjoy this book!
The performance of all narrators was fantastic 👏
