About this listen

We seem like perfect families. But our secrets must never come out ...

I trust my best friend Lydia with my life. We share everything, even the things we can't tell our husbands. So when we go on a beach holiday together, it's a dream come true. One night, we treat ourselves to dinner on the beach with our husbands while our children sleep soundly in the cottage behind us. But when I go to check on them, my entire world shatters. My son's bed is empty, the window wide open, his favourite teddy left between the crumpled sheets. I stifle a scream as my worst nightmare comes true. My little boy is gone. It's all my fault.

As the police question us, Lydia gives me a nervous look. She's the only one who knows I'll have to lie. Because there's something about my son that not even my husband knows. And if anyone discovers the truth, they'll never let me see my darling boy again.

No one can find out my secret. No one knows just how far I've gone to have the perfect family. And I will stop at nothing to get my son back ...

Critic reviews

'A delightful story, with riveting characters and a mystery guaranteed to tease and tantalise the reader right till the end.' (on Monsoon Memories) (Linda Kavanagh, #1 bestselling author of Never Say Goodbye)
'D'Silva presents Indian settings both perfectly and evocatively, as a native of that land would.' (on The War Child) (Historical Novel Society)

Let me start by saying I think Renita D'Silva is an entertaining author and I enjoyed her (more recent) books very much. So I selected this book based on the 2 previous ones (although I generally avoid books on missing children because I find them all pretty similar). There are some good parts, hence my average rating, but the rest was really painful. Much of the book (really, quite a few hours) involves the reflections the mother (naturally) and it just goes on and on and on, with the same thoughts about the missing child. It is very repetitive and I had to forward over most of these parts. I would rather recommend The Dream Wedding and The Neighbours, and not this one.

Tricky one
