About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

An utterly addictive and twisty thriller, full of dark family secrets and deadly stakes. Perfect for fans of One of Us Is Lying and Knives Out.

She came from nothing.

Avery has a plan: keep her head down, work hard for a better future. Then an eccentric billionaire dies, leaving her almost his entire fortune. And no one, least of all Avery, knows why.

They had everything.

Now she must move into the mansion she's inherited. It's filled with secrets and codes and the old man's surviving relatives - a family hell-bent on discovering why Avery got 'their' money.

Now there's only one rule: winner takes all.

Soon she is caught in a deadly game that everyone in this strange family is playing. But just how far will they go to keep their fortune?

Welll it was not bad

Not really impressed, but I could see myself picking up the sequel eventually. Unless I forget all about it

Mystery

Storytelling is very engaging for audience. Character not cardboard but robust with sense of humor.

Not for me

The short chapters with cliff hangers at the end kept me going although I didn't find the story or the characters particularly engaging.

difficult to keep my place in the story when listening at night. The countdown didn't stop the story playing. Bookmarks didn't work as expected.
