About this listen

When an empty passenger plane crashes in the Lake District, Carly Atherton's hopes of getting back together with the man she loves vanish - Luke Emery was one of the two pilots on board.

Investigating the story behind the doomed flight might just be the chance disgraced journalist Carly needs to rescue her career, as well as giving her the answers about Luke's death that she desperately wants.

But when she contacts the family of the other pilot, Daniel Taylor, she finds the two women he was closest to - his devoted sister and his loving wife - have very different memories to share.

As Carly delves into the dynamics of a seemingly ordinary family, she uncovers a far darker story than she could possibly have imagined. A story she risks becoming part of even as she tries to piece together the truth.

Because the bonds that shape us can also tear us apart. And sometimes there are monsters living among us, hiding in plain sight...

this started off as a slow burn and I wasn't sure it was for me. it reminded me a bit of Bella Mackie's 'how to kill your family' which I thought was utter tripe, but this novel is a grower and infinitely better written. Two hours in and I couldn't put it down. Could've done without the medical lesson towards the end (I'm a RMN) but aside from this, I really enjoyed it. Great narration too .

enjoyable, gripping
