"There’s someone I want you to meet," Belle says, as a man draws up to her side. He’s tall with dark hair and stubble on his square jaw. He’s not exactly smiling, but the corner of his mouth curls upwards as he slides his hand around my daughter’s waist.

Story4 out of 5 stars 5
For myself and Lauren, my 10-year-old daughter No 3 Beech Close was to be our refuge after two years of hell nursing my sick mother. In need of a fresh start and wanting to distance ourselves from the bad memories of my mother’s house we moved to Beech Close, a small cul-de-sac of six houses situated around a picture-perfect green. It seemed perfect but I had underestimated the secrets that this tightknit community shared. Within hours of moving in my next-door neighbour Valerie made it abundantly clear we were not welcome.

Story4 out of 5 stars 39
Jake Hayes is missing. This much is certain. At first, his wife, Nina, thinks he is blowing off steam at a friend’s house after their heated fight the night before. But then a day goes by. Two days. Five. And Jake is still nowhere to be found. Lily Scott, Nina’s friend and coworker, thinks she may have been the last to see Jake before he went missing. After Lily confesses everything to her husband, Christian, the two decide that nobody can find out what happened leading up to Jake’s disappearance, especially not Nina.

Publisher's Summary
All new from bestselling psychological thriller writer Keri Beevis
When you’re a kid, you imagine monsters to have horns and fangs. That they hide under the bed or in the wardrobe. And you believe they can only come after you when it’s dark.
You don’t expect them to look like everyday people or that they may be someone you already know…
The summer in question started out with hot, fun-filled days and new friendships.
We had just turned thirteen and had our whole lives ahead of us.
But that was before her....
Before we became known as the Hixton Five and our lives become defined by one night.
It’s hard to believe twenty years have passed since she was locked away.
But now she’s free and strange things have started to happen.
When I close my eyes, the creeping anxiety and fear is overwhelming and all too real.
Because the monster is back, and I know she has a score to settle with us.

Passable 'Plus' Selection
'Hannah Cole' is an adult survivor of a harrowing series of events at the hands of a true sociopath one summer. Along with True Crime author 'Liam Quinn' and fellow members of the 'Brixton Five', she copes with revenge-driven stalking & murderous threats.
The plot - told in two timelines - is twisty-turny and intriguing, the description is very good, and Keri Beevis explores the sexual tension between Hannah and Liam brilliantly.
Less fortunately, the Romance elements sometimes overwhelm the rest of the story, convoluted relationships introduce unnecessary confusion, and Beevis telegraphs the resolution with heavyhanded attempts to obscure the stalker's identity. She certainly didn't ruin the book (it's an enjoyable read), but I was able to guess the perpetrator annoyingly easily.
As to presentation: Imogen Church turns in a most impressive, clearly interested reading performance. True, her growly interpretations of the villain during chapters from his POV are pretty groanworthy - but her otherwise unimpeachable diction, timbre, cadence, and pacing are matched with an absolutely pitch-perfect tone. Well done, Boldwood Books. I would listen to more from Ms. Church anytime.
Altogether, 'The Sleepover' merits 7.5 stars out of 10. You should absolutely download this recorded iteration if given the choice between the audiobook or text versions.. but it's appropriate that it's in the 'Plus' catalog. Spend your Credit on something else should they ask for one.
[TRIGGER WARNING: some of the depictions of child sexual abuse, grooming, incest, and (attempted) rape in the book are viscerally disturbing. Beevis isn't terribly graphic, but you should avoid consuming this book with younger listeners present]

Not for the faint hearted.
Too graphic in some parts and down right incestuous, but luckily very short lived part. Definitely kept me guessing to the last page. Love the twists and turns! Excellent read!
