About this audiobook

‘I was gripped immediately’ Katerina Diamond, Sunday Times bestseller

How much do you know about the couple next door?

When Emily and Ben move in next door to Dr Burman and his wife Alisha, they are keen to get to know their new neighbours. Outgoing and sociable, Emily tries to befriend the doctor’s wife, but Alisha is strangely subdued, barely leaving the house, and terrified of answering the phone.

When Emily goes missing a few weeks later, Ben is plunged into a panic. His wife has left him a note, but can she really have abandoned him for another man? Or has Emily’s curiosity about the couple next door led her straight into danger?

A gripping, sinister thriller with a twist you won’t see coming from the international bestseller Lisa Stone.

Plot was original. But there were no mystery or thriller in it at all!! Everything was laid bare pretty early on in the book. And since the pace is slow, it gets pretty boring when there is no twist and turn. Characters were 2 dimensional and there were so many plot holes. Disappointed because I bought the audiobook with high expectations. Ive listened to free audiobooks with better writing. Convinced that the raving reviews on it, were paid reviews.

What did I just hear? My heart is still in my throat. Excellent narration. I do think we should have been warned about the content but then, maybe the surprise would be spoiled? I'm not sure. Hypnotic is the best word to describe this one! Highly recommend but please be careful, as there are many many disturbing details and possible triggers.

I really enjoy Lisa Stone books. The narrator was excellent. The end gave me chills. What will happen in the future? Is there any TRUE justice? Hmmm...Great book.

About the author

“As a writer of suspense thrillers I often ask myself what if? What if this happened instead of that? Or why a particular person reacted as they did. So often fact is stranger than fiction; these books start with a fact which I develop.”

Lisa Stone lives in England, has 3 children, and 27 books published under the pseudonym Cathy Glass, many of which have become best-sellers.
