About this listen

Sometimes it’s easier to believe the lie. But is the truth right in front of you?

Everyone says Poppy jumped. My beautiful, creative sister, with her paint-splattered dresses and sunshine smile, took her own life. And I think they’re right. Until the day I get a call from a man with a very similar story.

Everyone says his sister jumped too. But he has proof that she was pushed. And if she was, I have to ask myself: could the same thing have happened to Poppy? In the moments before she died, was she really calling me to say goodbye, or was she calling for my help? Was she really alone on that cliff edge?

When Poppy’s friends tell me she had a serious boyfriend, I feel like I’m losing my grip on reality. If they were so madly in love, wouldn’t she have told me? Wouldn’t there be pictures of them together? And when I find the silver heart necklace he gave her, I feel sick. It’s the same silver heart another murdered girl was given in the weeks before she died.

This can’t be a coincidence. Either I’ve lost my mind, or the man my darling sister loved killed her. And if he could charm his way into her life so easily, what’s to say he’s not already in mine?

This was a very long laborious story that was far too long and dull. Far too descriptive for a narrative book and had I been reading this I would have turned over pages without reading or skipping paragraphs. Difficult to keep up with some of the threads and the main character was sooo dull!
Book not helped by the narrator with her weird accents - I mean Rachel’s accent had to be the worst. Book took far too much time to finish and I only kept going because it is a rule of mine to always complete stories. Read the reviews first next time - note to self.

Awful accents & impressions of character’s voices. Reasonable story and interesting subject, with twist at the end.

Terrible narration

Dull, simpering characters. The audiobook is bad. Irritating, badly-attempted accents, erratic and very whiny.

It’s hard to know what is worse - the writing or the narration. The main characters are bland and basic. Poppy, murdered, is simpering and wet, you want to kill her yourself. The men in the book are particularly unrealistic. It all reads as though there has been no review, no editing at all. Oh dear.

To write a novel that concerns loved ones committing suicide is such a sensitive subject that this author should not have attempted it. Even if the story hadn't been so long-winded the awful narration would have spoiled it.

Repetitive
