De: Carla Kovach

Narrado por: Alison Campbell

Four-year-old Kayden has been sitting alone on the little patch of tired grass outside his house for hours. His cheeks are wet with tears as he waits for his mother’s warm embrace. But she’ll never arrive to pick up her darling boy. She’ll never be seen again....

Church Road is a quiet corner of suburbia where happy families play in the local park and neighbors smile as they pass in the street. But behind the bright red door of number eight lies the body of Billie Reeves, a young mum who just took her last breath.

Serena is Billie’s sister. When she found out her boyfriend had been obsessively calling Billie, she’d all but cut her from her life. But not before vowing she would make Billie pay for ruining her relationship....

Shaun is Billie’s ex-boyfriend. He left her the moment she fell pregnant. When he turned up at Billie’s door, demanding to see Kayden, she refused to take the risk of him hurting her precious son. He’ll do whatever it takes to get his little boy back....

Nadia is Billie’s best friend. Their kids attended the same school, and Billie often opened up to Nadia about her struggles as a single mother. She knows Billie’s deepest, darkest secret. She promised never to tell, but that was before the argument....

When police investigate the quiet little street, they discover everyone was whispering about Billie’s late-night callers. What was going on behind the closed door of Billie’s small home? And if someone was prepared to kill her, what do they know, and who will be next?

Fans of Angela Marsons, Cara Hunter, and Clare Mackintosh will love Her Deadly Promise–a completely gripping crime thriller that will have you hooked!

Gripping

Another great whodunit with a lot of action, suspense, and build up. I love this series and look forward to the next one.

Another good adventure for DI Harte

I always really enjoy the latest installment in this series and hope they keep coming!

Oh my goodness, I love this series!

I love all the twists & turns. This book kept me on the edge of my seat! I didn’t expect the villain to be that person, so that was an astonishing finding.

To me, a good ‘whodunit’ is when pretty much anybody in the book can be guilty. So again, this book did not disappoint.

I know this is a cryptic review, but I’m trying not to give out any details and spoil it for everybody.

As for the finale, I was staring at the phone, wishing for more. I was like, ‘Yikes, a cliffhanger’ for sure.

The one good thing about this author and narrator is that they keep me exercising, meaning because the book is interesting, I will go out for a walk or run to keep listening. This author never disappoints. She writes in a way that we can visualize being there with the characters.

I especially like the narrator this time; towards the end, she was laughing like a crazy person, which was spooky real.

Twelfth book but still fresh and exciting

The twelfth book in this series is another winner. So many possible outcomes and, when the end finally played out, I never saw it coming. I need the next book now.

Surprise Ending

I've been a fan of Carla Kovach and her DI Gina Hart series for a long time. This was my favorite! The ending was a total shock surprise! Loved it!

The way the narrator pronounced the name Candice

I'm only leaving a review to say that the narrator who otherwise pronounced every word normally thought Candice was pronounced Can-DEESS. I hated that, loved it otherwise.

Great Series

I am really enjoying this series. Great storyline and great narrater I recommend this series

Attention from the start

I love this author and all of her books. I am always sucked in from the start and cannot quit.
