About this listen

What happens when the watcher becomes the watched?

Jack has it all - a beautiful wife and daughter, a home, a career. Then his wife, Rebecca, plunges to her death from the Sussex coast cliffs. Was it an accident, or did she jump?

He moves to Manchester with his daughter to start afresh...but things don’t go as planned. He didn’t think life could get any worse....

Then, Jack sees a woman in a window who is the image of Rebecca. Attraction turns into obsession as he returns to the window night after night. But he isn’t the only one watching her....

Jack is about to be drawn into a deadly game. The woman lies dead. The latest victim in a series of savage murders. Someone is going to go down for the crimes. If Jack doesn’t find out who the killer is, that 'someone’ may well be him.

Good psychological thriller. The ending was a bit weird but it wasn't bad. . . .

story was ok but the constant Rebecca reminiscing was really annoying, ok I get it was part of the story but every other line! it really took away from the actual plot I found it broke up the flow of the dialog. it was though an ok book but it could have been a good hour shorter and more fluid without the Rebecca interruptions.

way too much Rebecca!!

several times I was tempted to delete this book from my library but I did persevere and stuck with it to the end
The narration of the male characters was painful to listen to, this book would have been so much more enjoyable if a male voice had read these

Poor narration

The story was really quite good. The narration wasn’t the worst I’ve heard - I carried on listening so it must have been passable 🤪. I wish she would’ve used the punctuation when reading, it’s my pet peeve. I hated the voice she used for Paul, it made my ears bleed - absolutely awful.
Overall, an enjoyable plot and not too shabby for a freebie!

unrealistic story line, annoying main character and terrible narration of the male characters voices, So much so I had to turn it off.

Awful narration of male characters

Really bad and very irritating when the narrator speaks the male characters.
Not a bad story, but a lot of characters in it than can be a bit confusing!

Awful narrator

Dont give up on this well thought out intense plot, would make a great tv mini series.

Enjoyable listen

The narration seemed to fade in and out ! very annoying when listening at low volume

Fading

Really liked the story, but if you’re going to narrate a story set in Manchester you really need to be a northerner or at least be able to do Manc accents convincingly. This narrator absolutely can’t, every accent not southern was like some sort of parody. On top of constantly mispronouncing simple words, and mispronouncing La Traviata as La Triviata until halfway through she drove me a bit mad. The story kept me going through, but I’d consider reading a paper book of this instead.

Terrible choice of narrator
