About this listen
An Unputdownable Psychological Thriller
Every home has a story. Some are better left untold.
Property developer Vivien Young thought she’d finally rebuilt her life. After a messy divorce, she’s returned to her childhood sanctuary, the grand Georgian home she now shares with her ageing father. Landing the contract to redevelop the Valley Park housing estate feels like the icing on the cake – a chance to prove she can succeed and keep her floundering business afloat.
But one fierce opponent stands in her way: Binty Fletcher, a reclusive old woman who would rather die than abandon her crumbling home on Valley Park. A woman who will do anything to protect the secrets hidden within its walls.
Determined to move forward, Vivien digs into Binty’s shadowy past, and strange connections begin to emerge – links between Binty and Vivien’s beloved home, which nestles in the shadow of the Valley Park estate.
As Binty’s desperation grows dangerous, Vivien uncovers a chilling truth: her and her father’s perfect home hides its own dark history, and Binty Fletcher isn’t the only one keeping secrets…
The 1960s era of free love collides with the high-stakes world of modern property development in this dual-timeline psychological thriller that will leave you breathless.

This is the story about two women battling over a property, or so you would think in the beginning.
It is so much more.
It's an intricately woven novel about lies, betrayal and deceit that creates amazing intrigue and suspense.
It has 3 POVs that are all fantastically gripping, and the character development was 10/10.
I have to say sometimes I struggle with audiobooks not hooking me in and I'm very fussy with the narration but this was superb.
This gives Lisa Jewell energy, perfect for fans of hers and love a suspenseful mystery!
Wow what a story! I didn't want it to end!

I love a thriller told from different characters POV so this was right up my street. Just when I thought I'd work out the mystery, another twist was thrown in to change my mind or blow my theory.
This was a great gritty northern thriller that keeps you guessing. With a great amount of twists and suspense to keep me invested and wanting to know more. The short chapters hooked me in.
I'll definitely be checking out the other books from this author which are set in the same housing estate.
Top Thriller

Set in the late 60's, when a couple of teenagers living alone since their parents death, invite an idealistic and totally charismatic hippy Kip Armstrong into their home, their lives change forever. Told by two delicious Geordie narrators taking you back and forth between 'then' and 'now' the intricate plot starts gently then gets you completely hooked with one plot twist after another culminating in a momentous denoument that brings every strand together. Absolutely loved it, so different. Skilful writer. Can't wait for the next book Nicky Black!
Totally compelling, step back in time sisters!

Well this was excellent as well.
The characters had even more life with the narrators & I thought they were full on in the book as I read it.
Such a great story & series. Should be much more recognised than it is.
Nicky Black (great pair of gritty writers)
Excellent to listen to & read
