“Bloody good.” —The New York Times

“Timely, surprising, emotionally alive, this is about as good as suspense fiction gets.” —Washington Post

No one knew they were together. Now one of them is dead.

56 DAYS AGO

Ciara and Oliver meet in a Dublin supermarket queue, just as COVID-19 begins creeping across Ireland. A spark. A chance. A distraction—from everything they’re trying to outrun.

35 DAYS AGO

With lockdown looming, Oliver suggests they move in together. For Ciara, it feels like a rare opportunity to let a relationship bloom in total privacy. For Oliver, it’s the perfect way to keep his past—and his true nature—hidden.

TODAY

Detectives force their way into Oliver’s apartment and find a body decomposing inside.

As they untangle a relationship built on secrets and half-truths, they face the ultimate question: Did lockdown give birth to love—or the perfect murder?

it was a slow burn for me, but the surprises were good. I don't know why I thought that reading a fiction novel that involved the current pandemic was a worthwhile thing to do 😄 3.5 stars

A good-enough story by a great author.

I’d never heard of this author, but Audible was having a 2-for-1 sale, and I found this in the selections.
I’m now going to have to add Catherine Ryan Howard books to my “must read” list!

I wasn’t sure that I would enjoy this book at first but the building of the story draws you. The narrator was excellent and the the story kept you guessing.

Slow start but draws you in

Kind of a long listen… a little repetitive but a pleasure to listen to the narrator… nice little twist at the end…

Great Pandemic Story…
