About this listen

'Classy and ingenious new thriller' BA PARIS

‘Millionaires, marriage and murder make for a potent cocktail in this compelling tale set among the super-rich of New York’s elite’ TM LOGAN

‘Instantly compelling and filled with ingenious twists and brilliant characters. This is sublime thriller writing’ BP WALTER

THE RULES

1. Listen carefully
 2. Do your research
 3. Trust no one
 4. Run for your life

Harriet Reed is newly engaged to Edward Holbeck, the heir to an extremely powerful American family.
When Edward’s father hands her a tape of a book he’s been working on, she is desperate to listen.
But as she presses play, it’s clear that this isn’t a novel. It’s a confession to murder.
Feeling isolated and confused, Harriet must work out if this is all part of a plan to test her loyalty. Or something far darker.
Because this might be a game to the Holbeck family - but games can still be deadly.

READY OR NOT, HERE THEY COME . . .

Critic reviews

"Stylish, riveting, hugely atmospheric—I couldn’t put it down." (Lucy Foley)

"Engrossing and unputdownable." (Caroline Kepnes)

"Captivating doesn't cover it. Brilliant doesn't do it justice. This is a dazzling, gasp-inducing plunge-pool of a novel that grips your heart and mind and refuses to let go. Absolutely stunning." (BP Walter)

From the very first word written to the vary last word spoken… Not only does Catherine Steadman write great books but she narrates them too. All in all superb from beginning to end.

Its a good twist and the way it’s written keeps you hooked but not much happens for much of the book. In any case the voice is one of the best ones, so soothing and intriguing at the same time

Really good twist

This book is FANTASTIC! I couldn’t stop listening. I listen to lots of audiobooks in this genre and this was my favorite. The author is AMAZING at narrating, I’m so impressed that she’s so skilled at both. Off to download all her other books immediately!
