Summary

Imagine nine women meeting. Tea and cake are on the coffee table. They’ve come together to share their love of books. They are friends. They trust each other. It’s a happy gathering. What could be more harmless? Scratch the surface and look closer. 

One is lonely, one is desperate and one of them is a killer. 

When the body of a woman is discovered on a Cambridge common, DCI Barrett and DI Palmer are called to investigate. But the motive behind the crime isn’t clear...and it all leads back to a book club. 

As the lies, volatile friendships and tension among the group rise to the surface, DCI Barrett and DI Palmer must work out the motive and track down a cold-blooded killer. But just when they think they are on the right track, a twist in the case throws them off course....

Betsy Reavley is the best-selling author of multiple thrillers including The Optician's Wife, The Quiet Ones and Frailty. This title is an unmissable new whodunnit which will appeal to fans of authors like Cara Hunter, Rachel Abbott, Faith Martin and LJ Ross.

Quick easy read however did find it a bit difficult keeping up with all the characters and ended quite abruptly. pretty typical and predictable but worth a listen if you're not wanting something too taxing!

Omg the narration was mind bogglingly bad!!! Just horrendous. I mean this in the least offensive way I just think it was a strange choice from the Narrator but most of the characters sounded like they had learning difficulties. It was so uncomfortable to listen to. It was like the narrator was mocking people.

Strange narration

I kept thinking all the way through that the author disliked every character in the book. and that distracted me from the story.

not sure the author liked any of the characters
