About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
It’s Camilla’s first day back at work, her daughter’s first day at nursery.
But husband Luke is nowhere to be seen. The only trace of him is an unfinished note. Camilla tries to put it out of her mind; there must be a rational explanation.
At work, there are welcomes back, and too many distractions.
Then it starts.
Breaking news: there's a hostage situation developing in London.
The police arrive: Luke is caught up in it.
But he isn't a hostage. Luke - doting father, successful writer, enthusiastic runner and eternal optimist - is the gunman.
What Camilla does next is crucial. Because only she knows what the note he left behind says, and the clues it might hold . . .

Storyline
Loved the ideas in this book, couldn’t see the twists coming either. Liked the characters too. I would recommend it

Another fantastic read from Gillian Mc Allister
The plot was fantastic, the tempo increased as the book progressed, interesting characters, great plot twists. But for the love of God use Irish voice actors, Niall was a great character but the accent was woeful.

Good story
Good story, flows nicely and keeps you guessing for a good while. Narration good apart from the really really awful Irish accent.

Emilia Fox & Story Brilliant
I love Emilia Fox, she really made the story for me. First time reading a Gillian McAllister book, definitely won’t be my last! Hooked me in straight away. Only negative for me, I felt like the story could have been made a bit shorter

Great plot but ending felt a tad rushed
Loved the clever plot structure but ending felt rushed and lacked the detail the rest of the plot contained
