About this listen
A brilliantly claustrophobic and twisty thriller from the critically acclaimed author Catherine Ryan Howard.
No one even knew they were together. Now one of them is dead.
Fifty-six days ago. Ciara and Oliver meet in a supermarket queue in Dublin and start dating the same week COVID-19 reaches Irish shores.
Thirty-five days ago. When lockdown threatens to keep them apart, Oliver suggests they move in together. Ciara sees a unique opportunity for a relationship to flourish without the scrutiny of family and friends. Oliver sees a chance to hide who - and what - he really is.
Today. Detectives arrive at Oliver's apartment to discover a decomposing body inside.
Can they determine what really happened, or has lockdown created an opportunity for someone to commit the perfect crime?

Critic reviews
"Catherine Ryan Howard has become my go-to writer for utterly absorbing, original stories with a killer twist and 56 Days delivers all this and more." (Jo Spain, number one best-selling author of The Confession)
"Clever, tender and all too convincing, it's the kind of book you read in one breathless setting to get to the truth." (Erin Kelly, author of He Said/She Said)
"An utterly brilliant and completely satisfying pageturner." (Catherine Kirwan)

Poor Finish
Ending needs a revisit, enjoyed the book but felt like it just fell short. Much similar books with better endings available... disappointed as this book had so much potential up to the ending.

Disappointed with this book
I wasn’t mad about this book and I had heard such great reviews about it that I was looking forward to it! I just found the plot to be a bit mundane! Granted, there is a good twist at the end but it takes forever to get there and I was kind of fed up of the whole story line by the time I reached the end!

Really good news different story
Enjoyed this book, it is clever, topical and held my attention. Each character is well-thought out and the premie is gripping. The only reason I have deducted a star is for the annoying Americanisms such as 'cart' for shopping trolley, 'garbage' for rubbish, 'sneakers' for trainers and 'lobby' for hall/front entrance. I understand the need for the language to be understood in the US but the changing of the Irish vernacular was grating.

Great story
I didn't like the narrator but I pushed past it as the story itself was really good
