Summary
In this thrilling gothic suspense debut by Sara Foster in the tradition of Rosamund Lupton and Sophie Hannah, a young mother searches Yorkshire’s windswept moors for the truth behind her husband’s mysterious disappearance.
The answers are hiding Beneath the Shadows
When Grace’s husband, Adam, inherits an isolated North Yorkshire cottage, they leave the bustle of London behind to try a new life. A week later, Adam vanishes without a trace, leaving their baby daughter, Millie, in her stroller on the doorstep. The following year, Grace returns to the tiny village on the untamed heath. Everyone - the police, her parents, even her best friend and younger sister - is convinced that Adam left her. But Grace, unable to let go of her memories of their love and life together, cannot accept this explanation. She is desperate for answers, but the slumbering, deeply superstitious hamlet is unwilling to give up its secrets.
As Grace hunts through forgotten corners of the cottage searching for clues and digs deeper into the lives of the locals, strange dreams begin to haunt her. Are the villagers hiding something, or is she becoming increasingly paranoid? Only as snowfall threatens to cut her and Millie off from the rest of the world does Grace make a terrible discovery. She has been looking in the wrong place for answers all along, and she and her daughter will be in terrible danger if she cannot get them away in time.

Easy listen
Not a bad story, just let down by the monotone narrator. Thank goodness for the speed adjustment.

Excellent easy to follow Thriller
I enjoyed this book. It wasn't clear exactly what had happened which is quite a rare treat. Held me captivated to the end although I feel the end was slightly rushed hence my 4/5 for story.

Hard work
Finding the characters flat and the story slow. The American vocab is jarring in a quintessentially British setting.

Decent enough thriller
Terrible narrator. Shame, as the story line was pretty good, and the characters varied.

I really enjoyed this story and quickly came to terms with the narration, the characters were believable and the story held me until the end - a thoroughly good way to do housework!
