Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
A missing child. A house full of secrets. A mystery waiting to be solved.
Close your eyes.
The game of hide and seek is over, but little Lily Murphy hasn't been found. Her parents try to stay positive, but they know this peaceful Dublin suburb will never be the same again.
Count to ten.
Years later, Joanna moves into a new house. It seems perfect in every way, until she learns that Lily Murphy used to live here.
And when you open them, your child is gone.
Because Joanna thinks she knows what really happened to Lily – and if the truth gets out, it might be her undoing...
'Next-level domestic suspense - even the twists have twists. I loved it – Andrea Mara is a star.'

‘A relentless, twisting page-turner.’ Chris Whitaker

Great twist at the end!
Loved this book once again Andrea Mara sends me into another world. Her books are so well written and as a parent they really are gripping. She is able to strike such a strong chord in me every time in her books. This one is no different. I loved the story and thought I had it figured out until the twist at the end with what actually happened. Had a little giggle at the lamb stew!

Brilliant - Highly recommend.
I've been waiting all summer for a decent thriller and this was it.
It's brilliantly crafted and so entertaining.
I discovered Andrew Mara recently and love her but a few of her books have been narrated by an actress with a British accent and the pronunciation and her hammy 'Oirish' accent so bad I just couldn't keep listening and had to return the book. So it was such a relief that the narrator was good here. Highly recommend!

A variant on the Unreliable Narrator Trope
As a whole, I liked it. It was captivating and engaging, with twists and turns along the way that I hadn't guessed ahead of time, but which seemed believable.
But unfortunately there were also some things I didn't like. The chapters were far shorter than they needed to be, and could sometimes have been replaced by a paragraph break. The fact that I noticed this even when reading this as an audiobook is proof that it really was excessive, as - generally speaking - chapter breaks are less noticeable there than in other types of books.
Secondly, while I am a fan of the unreliable narrator, I am very much not a fan of the "keeping a secret from the audience" narrator. Those situations where you KNOW that the narrator knows something that will influence the entire plot, yet they keep it from the reader because of reasons. They frustrate me no end, and seem like lazy writing more than anything else.
The first point I could probably have ignored, but the second did subtract a couple of stars, as while I was curious about what had happened, and interested in seeing where the book took me - the road to getting there was slightly annoying at times.
Fortunately I was satisfied with the ending, so at the end of the day, I'm glad to have read it.
