In 1997 teenager Sophie White and her three girlfriends decide they want to lose their virginity before summer is over.
Roping in her childhood buddy Gareth and his mates, Sophie holds a party to get the deed over and done with, but the night doesn’t end as planned.
Twenty years later, the group are brought back together when Gareth is killed in a car accident and Sophie begins receiving threatening messages. It seems the party wasn’t as innocent as everyone thought, and now someone wants payback.
A gripping, highly addictive game of cat and mouse where the past comes back with vengeance. Perfect for the fans of Kimberley Chambers, Emma Tallon and Jessie Keane.

When single mother Darcy’s son falls from a rope bridge at a local playground, life stands still. She clutches his small, limp body, frozen, until a pair of strong hands push her aside, and she watches as George, a local doctor, saves her son’s life. George, with his twinkling hazel eyes, easy charm and lack of wedding band is almost too good to be true, but coffee becomes lunch, lunch becomes dinner, and soon they can’t go an evening without seeing each other.

The actions of the protagonist are illogical
Not bad overall, but Sophie’s actions are unreasonable as she keeps ignoring clear signs of danger and does not involve the police. This makes the story quite improbable.

Enjoyable psychological thriller
I enjoyed this psychological thriller written by Gemma Rogers, and deftly narrated by Georgia Maguire - especially the teenagers. I have to say I figured out pretty early on who the psychotic person was in this one. Maybe it's directed at young adults?

Worth the listen.
The story was interesting and suspenseful despite figuring out who the killer was earlier than halfway through the book. It was interesting to see if the educated guess would be confirmed and how it would be revealed.Worth the listen.

Great listen
You will know from the beginning who the villain is, and it’s slightly frustrating that no one clues in. However, it was an enjoyable listen and the narration was wonderful.
