Story
I wrap my arms around the tree trunk, pressing my cheek against it until the bark digs in and the missing poster is finally secured. I try not to look at the photograph on it. At the features so similar to mine. Perhaps this will be the year someone comes forward. Were crucial mistakes made by detectives from the very beginning? Could the pressure of living two lives have led my sister to run away - or even end it? Or did someone in her tight circle of friends and family have reason to want her gone? Someone out there must know something.

Story
From the outside, my marriage to Zach was perfect: a dream home, a perfect baby girl, and passionate, all-consuming love. But as I cradle my gorgeous baby, I have to accept that the husband who used to be my everything has changed. At first, it was little things: expecting me to keep to a strict schedule, picking out my clothes for me. Now, he controls every aspect of my life: from how much money I have, to when I leave the house, and who I can see. I know deep down, only one of us will make it out of this marriage alive.

Story
Ten years ago, the Harper family disappeared. Their deserted cottage was left with the water running, the television playing cartoons, the oven ready for baking. The doors were locked from the inside. Overnight, the sleepy village of Nighbrook became notorious as the scene of the unsolved mystery of the decade, an epicentre for ghoulish media speculation. For crime journalist Naomi, solving the case has turned into an obsession. So now, with Ivy Cottage finally listed for sale, it’s her chance to mount an investigation like no other.

She bursts into my life like a storm, and nothing is the same again. One by one, I watch as my friends fall under her spell. Only I see that her smiles don’t reach her cold, furious eyes. And when I’m accused of things I didn’t do, when my home is vandalized, I know she’s behind it. But she only lets her mask slip when no one is looking, so if I say anything, I’ll look crazy. So when the baby shower comes around, I’m sitting on a velvet sofa in a posh hotel room, surrounded by balloons. But that afternoon, I finally learn the unbelievable truth. There is no baby....

Publisher's Summary
You think you’re safe in your home. You’re wrong.
Ever since Steph’s husband walked out after a 30-year marriage, home hasn’t felt like a safe haven. Her daughter, Bea, thinks she’s imagining things. But Steph knows that the noises in the night, the open windows she knows she left closed, the strange smell in the kitchen - none of it feels right.
Then her house is broken into, and a young man named Noah helps her fix the front window. He’s fallen on hard times and Steph impulsively offers him a place to stay. At least if he is there, she won’t be home alone.
Before long Noah is living in Bea’s old bedroom, paying rent, and getting his life back on track. Steph’s ex-husband and Bea are furious. But Steph feels secure at last.
Until the strange things start happening once more.
Until it becomes clear someone will stop at nothing to make her never, ever feel safe again.
The most twisty thriller of the year - perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Mark Edwards, and Gone Girl.

Addictive.... Once I started, I couldn’t put down and simply had to read in one sitting.... Very very highly recommended and definitely one of my favourite reads of this year."

The narration destroyed it
The voice of the main character's adult daughter sounded exactly like Minnie Mouse in a Disney cartoon. It was unbearable to listen to it. Although it was also highly amusing in tiny doses. Ruined the entire experience of this book.

Very Good!
NO SPOILERS!!! I took a chance on this one even though it had no reviews and I’m glad I did. The story is interesting. I listen to 100s of psychological thrillers and it’s hard to surprise me. This book however kept me guessing and was a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately I binged it in a day, but now I’ll definitely check out her other books.

Lots of Rumination of Giving Benefit of the Doubt
Book could’ve been half as long without the repetitious inner dialog over excuses given for the benefit of the doubt. So many suspicious things not given too much concern.
As far as the daughter’s voice, it was a voice that fit in the daughters character IMOH and i heard it fine in the context it’s meant to be.
I think it keeps you guessing long enough to be interesting.

Great twist ending
This story had a great twist ending. One twist at the end I guessed, but who was behind the troubles Steph was having was a surprise. It did become obvious to me before Steph caught on in the story. I liked the way the story wrapped up in the end with Steph, her family and Noah. It was nice to see Steph get answers and be able to keep her new found independence.

Annoying woman narrator.
The main character was so unlikeable, completely ridiculous in her inability to manage little day to day tasks. Her family treats her like a child, but the absolute worst thing about this book is the narrator. I don’t understand how anyone could have thought the breathy Minnie Mouse voice she used for the daughter was a good idea. I’m returning this book based solely on the terrible narration.

Oh dear
Far from as good as some of Rona Halsall's books. Starts and ends with an unbelievably weak main character (I found her really annoying). Much of the book really seems to drag on and then of course in the last quarter it finally gets somewhere. 2 star at best.

Nice cosy start to this book but soon starts to become a bit unsettling. Lots of twists and turns and a few red herrings chucked in to keep you guessing.
