About this listen

‘Truly gripping and unputdownable’ Claire Allan

How well do you know the people closest to you?

It’s not just secrets buried in the garden next door…

Jane doesn’t know her new neighbours very well.

She thought they were nice. She thought they were happy.

She was wrong.

First there’s the explosive rows. Then she catches one of them digging a grave-shaped trench in the garden.

When the truth emerges, someone would kill to cover their tracks…

Critic reviews

"Beautifully crafted, ominous and engrossing...truly gripping and unputdownable." (Claire Allan, The Nurse)

"A delicious domestic suspense about families who are never quite what they seem." (Jane Corry, We All Have Our Secrets)

"Secrets, lies and duplicity with surprising twists that made me question everything. Vividly drawn and beautifully written." (Mary Torjussen, The Closer You Get)

They tempt us into thinking this might be a thriller, but really it's not. It's about domestic abuse and family relationships. There's very little action. The story just doesn't seem to go anywhere (unless you are a fan of family & neighbour relationships). With some books I get absorbed in the quality of the writing and the lack of action doesn't matter. That is not the case here.
Terrible attempt at a Scottish accent!
