Summary
From the bestselling author of What You Did comes a chilling story about a missing girl and two potential witnesses. They both think they saw her. But can they trust their own eyes?
With two young children, Mary hasn’t slept in what feels like years. For his part, Tim never feels safe enough to sleep. And so one hot, exhausting night, the two strangers meet while seeking solace in a nearby park. There, they witness something horrific: a violent attack in the window of a neighbouring house.
Bonded by what they’ve seen, Tim and Mary are desperate to find answers. And when they see news reports of a missing woman who was last seen walking alone not far from them, the pair are convinced it’s her they saw being attacked—no matter what the police say.
But with her marriage under strain and the police on their tail, Mary begins to doubt her own mind…and Tim’s. And as the pair are drawn into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse, the culprit appears to be even closer to home than they thought. Have they got it all wrong, or is something even more sinister going on?

Good...
The story was fun. The twists not so unexpected. But certainly worth listening to.

Entertaining but not Gripping
Enjoyable. You can get lost in the "fantasy". Some of scenarios are believable. Others would never happen in the real world. The performance of the narrators lifts the story above what it is.

Kept me awake
Great story line, couldn’t stop listening to this audiobook. From start to finish you are guessing all the time and not predicable storyline. Loved the narrator, so clear easy to listen to. Loved all the characters, highly recommended.

Almost couldn’t get through it!
The child in this is so irritating that I almost couldn’t get through this audiobook. The narrator even managed to pull off the most irritating voiceover for it as well. What was the purpose of this other than to make the reader’s teeth itch? It was a struggle to be honest. The story itself was mediocre and a little dragged out. Not her best. That annoying bl**dy child though!

A bit far fetched but non the less enjoyable
Just pottered about whilst listening. It certainly wasn't a jaw dropping experience! However, the narration was good 👍 It's OK if you want a slow speed read. But it's still 100% than What I can do!!!
