About this listen

The new thriller from the master of psychological suspense.

She’s a murderer. Everyone knows she killed Stuart Rees - why else would his dead body be found in her shed? So now Tabitha is in prison, awaiting trial. Coming back to the remote coastal village where she grew up was a mistake. She didn’t fit in then, and she doesn’t fit in now. That day is such a blur, she can’t remember clearly what happened. There is something she is missing, something important. She only knows one thing. She is not capable of murder. And the only one she can trust to help her out of this situation is herself. So she must fight. Against the odds. For her life.

Beautifully written about prejudice, loneliness and fighting spirit, this new audiobook by Nicci French is shocking, twisty and utterly compelling.

Critic reviews

"Great writing, razor-sharp plotting, and powerful characterisation. I defy anyone to see the ending coming." (Cara Hunter)

"Part ingenious locked-room mystery. Part you’ve-got-the-wrong-person nightmare drama. Part intricate memory game. Yet all seamlessly woven together. French’s best book yet." (A J Finn)

"Clever, compelling, original and twisty." (Erin Kelly)

Thoroughly enjoyed this story. Well worth a place in my library. I will keep an eye out for more stories from Nikki French and hope they are just as good.

Enjoyed listening to this. The narrator brought it to life and was fantastic. There were a few loose ends that I would've liked to have answered. But an enjoyable listen and well-crafted story with lots of insight.

Good page-turner

what a marvelous story! I'm full of admiration for the character - but obviously the writer created this heroine of a very different type. So the admiration is to Nikki French - congrats!

prickly heroine, damned village
