Shortlisted for the CWA Twisted Dagger 2025 Award.

"A proper twisty thriller."—Sarah Pinborough

A stranger has infiltrated your family…and now he’s taking over.

Paul’s just here to help, or so he claims—sent by a charity for vulnerable people to do odd jobs for elderly widow Gwen. But for Gwen’s daughter Connie, there’s just something about Paul that rings alarm bells from day one. He’s a little too kind, a little too involved…Worse still, Gwen seems to have fallen under his spell.

The last thing Connie wants is a stranger meddling in the safe routine she’s built around Gwen. She loves being the one Gwen turns to for cooking, cleaning and company. But the more Paul visits, the more Gwen is relying on him. By the time he conveniently finds himself between homes and has no choice but to move in, Connie is certain he’s trying to push her out completely.

It’s her word against his, though, and as her attempts to unmask him become ever more desperate she’s not the only one left wondering if she’s lost her grip on reality. But when events start spiralling rapidly out of her control, should Connie wage all-out war on Paul and risk losing Gwen forever—or has that been his plan all along?

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Though not yet a household name, Marrs is an incredibly talented storyteller with a built-in audience who knows what he can do. When unfamiliar readers get their hands on this one, they’ll want more.”Booklist

“I inhaled this book. A novel of second guesses, of mistrustful characters and downright terrifying ones. An absolute ride of a thriller. I loved it.”—L. V. Matthews, author of The Twins and The Silent Waters

The guys voice. Very annoying, could have done without him. The woman was great.

Good story

The narrator made this better than it was. The plot was predictable and the end unsatisfying.

Average plot

Loved the twists!! Couldn't stop listening. It was a very interesting story and the characters were well developed.

The story is good and it's hard to put it down. But one of the female voices is so caricatural that the parts read by that actor feel like you've suddenly slipped in a bad comedy. It's very distracting. I had to put the speed of the tract a couple of notches faster so as not to hear that terrible accent. Too bad because the story is edge of your seat readable and has very poignant and sad parts when the protagonists relate their relationships with their mothers.

Good story

Okay, so this novel is fairly decent, and there are plenty of twists to keep you engaged. However, the first portion, which was great and my favorite part, just didn’t mesh right with the second portion. There was something missing there, or just not developed enough in terms of ending/beginning. The very end of the novel felt too quick, yet drawn out at the same time. The narration was great, and I really enjoyed the variety of perspectives.

Many twists, but…

I will say it keeps your attention and narration is fabulous but the plot just got a little convoluted.

Great narration, story got a bit convoluted

I liked this novel and the performance is well done but it didn’t quite stick a 5 star landing for me. I also don’t really love when something ends with a “let’s wrap this all up” chapter. Bit lazy.

Maybe a bit too much going on

John Marrs offers a thrilling ride again! Unexpected twist. Awesome as all his other books!

Marrs at his best!
