Story
Samantha Frayn doesn’t know why Peter Bridges picks her - a nobody with bitten fingernails and a troubled childhood behind her - but she falls quickly. He’s older, charming, likes fine wine and French films, and his beautiful home has real art on its walls. Peter transforms Samantha’s life in an instant. He sees the better version of herself - the one she’s always wanted to be. It’s only normal that there’s a little friction, when she moves in, over domestic matters like where things are kept, or the proper times to eat, sleep, and shower.

She bursts into my life like a storm, and nothing is the same again. One by one, I watch as my friends fall under her spell. Only I see that her smiles don’t reach her cold, furious eyes. And when I’m accused of things I didn’t do, when my home is vandalized, I know she’s behind it. But she only lets her mask slip when no one is looking, so if I say anything, I’ll look crazy. So when the baby shower comes around, I’m sitting on a velvet sofa in a posh hotel room, surrounded by balloons. But that afternoon, I finally learn the unbelievable truth. There is no baby....

I thought my sister was happy. I thought what we all thought: that Annie and Dom led perfect lives in a lovely cottage in a quiet village by the sea, with flowers at the front gate and an apple tree in the garden. Everyone knew them: generous, loving Dom, creative, joyful Annie. But I never saw Annie as she sat waiting for Dom well into the night. I didn’t see her smiling through her tears. I didn’t know what the perfect couple was hiding.

There are two sides to every story: yours and mine, ours and theirs, his and hers. Which means someone is always lying. When a woman is murdered in Blackdown, a quintessentially British village, newsreader Anna Andrews is reluctant to cover the case. Detective Jack Harper is suspicious of her involvement, until he becomes a suspect in his own murder investigation. Someone isn’t telling the truth, and some secrets are worth killing to keep.

Brilliant...
Powerful,moving...funny and refreshing. All adjectives apropos for this book. I read a lot. So many are similar , but this was unexpected . Written in first person it’s the story told by Pippa an author in a dry spell deadline looming. Finding her muse in a door to door salesman, she makes a decision she can never go back on.
You won’t regret your credit spent.

unique approach to storytelling
I have read and loved several psychological thrillers and this is the most unique approach to the story. I am giving this high rating not so much for the story itself, but because of how it was delivered to the reader.

lots of fast forwarding through the middle
This book is fine at the beginning up to the point where the stranger leaves her home. That is, if, you would believe someone would invite a stranger off the street into their home and treat them like they have been friends for years. Then I found myself fast forwarding through the most drawn out scenes imaginable through the middle of the book. It doesn't get good again until almost the end. Then the ending is bizarre to say the least. Could have done without this book. Would never recommend it to anyone who likes psychological thrillers. Save your credit.

Good but a little creepy
This started out a little boring in my opinion and it took me awhile to get into it. Eventually though I could not stop listening, I had to know what was going to happen next! A very suspenseful and rather creepy thriller. I also
liked the way they did the narrative layout, made it even more suspenseful. A good listen!

Drags at the beginning but gets good at the end
I struggled to stay with the story up until around chapter 26. I did not like the main characters, they were selfish and whiney.
Around chapter 26 the story picks up and things become clearer. It's a bit predictable and dysfunctional.
