Before long, ominous truths begin rising to the surface, and Amy becomes bewitched by the missing sister’s story. Can Amy unlock the secrets of the past before they repeat themselves?

Pine Ridge is idyllic; the surrounding forests are beautiful and the locals welcoming. Mostly. But Alex finds that she may have disturbed barely hidden secrets in her new home. As a chain of bizarre events is set off, events eerily familiar to those who have lived there for years, Alex realizes that she and her family might be in greater danger than ever before.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

Early one morning on the shore of the Thames, DCI Samuel Owusu is called to the scene of a gruesome discovery. When Owusu sends the evidence for examination, he learns the bones are connected to a cold case that left three people dead on the kitchen floor in a Chelsea mansion thirty years ago. Rachel Rimmer has also received a shock—her husband, Michael, has been found dead in the cellar of his house in France. All signs point to an intruder, and the French police need her to come urgently to answer questions about Michael and his past that she very much doesn’t want to answer.

Set in 1920s London, this is the inspiring story of Kate Goss' struggle against poverty, hunger and cruel family secrets. Her mother died in a fall, her father has vanished without trace, and now her aunt and cousins treat her viciously. In a freezing, vermin-infested garret, factory girl Kate has only her own brave spirit and dreams of finding her father to keep her going. She has barely enough money to feed herself, or to pay the rent. The factory where she works begins to lay off people and it isn't long before she has fallen into the hands of the violent local money-lender.

The Bahamas, 1941. Newly widowed Leonora “Lulu” Randolph arrives in Nassau to investigate the governor and his wife for a New York society magazine. After all, American readers have an insatiable appetite for news of the duke and duchess of Windsor, that glamorous couple whose love affair nearly brought the British monarchy to its knees five years earlier. What more intriguing backdrop for their romance than a wartime Caribbean paradise, a colonial playground for kingpins of ill-gotten empires? Or so Lulu imagines.

Sons and Lovers, D. H. Lawrence's first major novel, was also the first in the English language to explore ordinary working-class life from the inside. No writer before or since has written so well about the intimacies enforced by a tightly knit mining community and by a family where feelings are never hidden for long. When the marriage between Walter Morel and his sensitive, high-minded wife begins to break down, the bitterness of their frustration seeps into their children's lives.

As usual, Louise Douglas did not disappoint and Karen Crass’s narration was perfection. Suspenseful, sometimes creepy, and emotional.

Great story
I was not sure after the first couple of chapters but so glad I stayed with it. It was a great listen and kept me engaged to the end. Ended up finishing it much quicker than anticipated as I didn’t want to stop once it got going.

Couldn’t Stop Listening
It’s been a while since I’ve been enthralled in a story like this! I enjoyed the performance of the narrator and was quickly drawn into the characters and the story. It was a quick listen because I was anxious to get to the end to find out the truth behind the mystery. I had my theories, but it wasn’t an obvious ending to pin down. I’m glad I tried a book by this author and will look for another book by her next!

One of her best
I fell in love with this creepy and well written story.
The protagonist is a wonderfully relatable character and the book is well developed and well thought out from start to finish.
Louise Douglas is a master of her craft.
“In Her Shadow” is my favorite but this was a very, very close second.
I could not put it down.
The narration is truly perfect. I can’t say enough about what a difference this makes.
It takes a good story and turns it into a total experience for the reader when the performer is all in .
Would highly and strongly recommend this eerie and gorgeous tale.
A creepy lake, a creepy kid, and a tense and paranoid atmosphere in this small town filled with secrets and a compelling back story.
Yes. Yes. Yes.

This is my first negative review. I usually enjoy a wide variety of books including those based in Europe. However it was just too mundane and not at all entertaining.
