Summary

Five years rebuilding your life. Five words will destroy it again.

Mia Hamilton lived the perfect life with her husband, university teacher Zach, and their two-year-old daughter. But everything changed when Zach committed suicide on the same night one of his students vanished.

Five years later, just when Mia is beginning to heal, stranger Alison walks into her life, saying her husband didn't kill himself. Fragile, slight Alison leads Mia on a path into Zach's past, and Mia begins to think she never really knew her own husband.

As the secrets revealed get darker, Alison becomes harder to read, and Mia starts to wonder - why is Alison so keen to help? And then a piece of the puzzle appears in an impossible place, and Mia has to ask, is she losing her mind, or should she be afraid for her life?

An absolutely enthralling psychological thriller about obsession and buried secrets, with a brilliant twist. Fans of The Girl on the Train, Behind Closed Doors and Gone Girl will be hooked.

Silent Lies

Fairly gripping from early on. Best near the end where the plot twists. Just wish the author had spent a little less time at the start of the story and a little more time rounding up thel ending, it came to quite an abrupt finish which made for an unbalanced feel. Having said that I did enjoy the story immensely.

Yet another thrilling suspense novel

Katherine Croft has done it again. Another fast paced, thrill at every turn story. Don't be fooled by the benign characters, they are all in it!

A good book until the last 2 chapters

I really enjoyed this story but the final 2 chapters were really disappointing and gave the feeling that the author had got ‘stuck’ for ideas on how to end the story. Perhaps the performance of the book was also a contributing factor to the let down. It’s definitely worth a read but just not the best thriller that I have read (purely due to the ending)

Mostly dull.

The narrator for Mia was pretty monotone and unengaging often making it a hard listen. The story itself isn't that enthralling either.

Carefully Crafted Plot

Compelling reading but the ending did not work for me. The characters were well developed and the plot carefully crafted but the ending did not seem to have come from the same story..
