Longlisted for the 2023 Theakston Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year Award
'A thoroughly compulsive ticking-clock thriller’ TM LOGAN
'The very definition of a compulsive page-turner' CHRIS WHITAKER
_______________
I didn’t kill her. Trust me…
When Amy Blahn died on a London rooftop, Layla Mahoney was there. Layla was holding her. But all she can say when she’s arrested is that ‘It was Michael. Find Michael and you’ll find out everything you need to know.’
The problem is, the police can’t find him – they aren’t even sure he exists.
Layla knows she only has forty-eight hours to convince the police that bringing in the man she knows only as ‘Michael’ will clear her name and reveal a dangerous game affecting not just Amy and Layla, but her husband Russell and countless others.
But as the detectives begin to uncover the whole truth about what happened to Amy, Layla will soon have to decide: how much of that truth can she really risk being exposed?

With the temperature outside 41 degrees this needed to be special
And it was! What a great plot. Its rare to get into a book so quickly but this had my attention from Chapter 2 on. I thought I knew the outcome but couldn’t work out how that was going to unravel. The characters are believable, and their behaviour lent itself to the twists and turns. Right to the end.
Great book. So intelligent and well written. Have a previous one to read and there will soon be a third!

Gripping!
I love Imran Mahmood's work, and this is no disappointment.
I found the the unreliable narrator and interesting device and and fell for one or two red herrings along the way.
if you like thrillers that keep you guessing right until the end this book is for you you. being a writer does an excellent job of managing a number of different accents and her voice quality really makes this and easy listen.

Great twisty narrative
Another example of the complexity required when writing an unreliable narrator. I'm a big fan of books which bounce between POV or timeline, and it's refreshing to hear it done well. Few authors can hold the 1st POV well, but this book is a great example. The lot unravels slowly, but the mystery is addictive. Could she be lying? Maybe insane, or dillusional?
Great performance, too.

All I said was true
Narrator was mostly good, accents were ok though some of the detectives were a bit comical. The story started promisingly and was well written on the whole. There is some stuff that goes nowhere talking about free will, reminding me of first year philosophy class. The main character seems incredibly gullible and possibly suffering from a possible mental illness, I may have missed something there. The main premise was so implausible that I expected a big twist, but there wasn’t one; it seemed odd that a lawyer could not work out what was going on. I think this story was genuinely unusual but I was disappointed in how it played out.
