About this listen

If you go down to the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise…

Kitty Marchland has always known that her family aren’t like others. But when her father uproots them to a remote cottage in the woods, she realises that her parents are keeping secrets from her – secrets that could unravel everything.

Years later, Kitty starts to question what really happened out in the forest. When the police revisit a suspicious death, she must examine her most painful memories – and this time, there’s nowhere to hide…

A gripping and suspenseful thriller that will captivate you from first to last page. Perfect for fans of Ruth Ware and The Widow’s Cabin by L.G. Davis.

Critic reviews

"To open B P Walter’s exceptional new thriller is to step through a cellar door: the air cools, your vision dims...and just a few steps later, you’re tiptoeing across the floor, desperate to switch on a torch - yet frightened of what the light might reveal. Attention, readers of Lucy Foley and Lisa Gardner: Hold Your Breath is your next favourite read." (A.J. Finn, author of The Woman in the Window)

"A smart thriller." (Gillian McAllister)

Don't quite see the point of the story

It was a bit slow, really, and because most of it was told from the POV of a 10 yo girl, just a bit juvenile. The writing and narration itself was OK. I just thought the story lacked any sort of purpose. I'm still not entirely sure what I'm supposed to have got out of it. I listened to most of it at triple speed because nothing much happened for large sections. I'm a fan of this author, and then successfully managed to build up a sense of impending dread, but nothing really happened with it. The story just sort of fizzled.

Gripping tale

I really enjoyed this. Auther is a wordsmith, who tells a good tale. Excellent narration.
