About this listen
What if the person you trust most in the world is lying to you?
I’d heard of the Baby Caroline case, of course. When a baby is snatched from her mother’s arms, the whole country knows about it. I knew about the parents left lying by the swimming pool, the open window in the nursery. But I never dreamed it had anything to do with me.
Today, my beautiful daughter turned one. We were unwrapping gifts and blowing out candles when the knock came at the door, and they took my mother away. The police say she’s not really my mother. That she stole me, 30 years ago.
When I visit her, desperate for answers, she looks me in the eye, and says nothing. I can barely breathe. Is my whole life a lie? I have to find out, but the more I learn, the more scared I become. And soon I start to wonder, am I losing my grip on reality, or is my own daughter in terrible danger?
An absolutely gripping psychological thriller, perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Ruth Ware, and Lisa Jewell.

KEPT ME GRIPPED FROM PAGE ONE
Every now and then a book comes along that you find yourself reading slower and slower because you’re enjoying the storyline and characters so much you literally don’t want to finish reading it. This is one of those books. Although the twists and turns did sometimes force me to go back over a few pages to make sure I’d read it right. No spoilers here, but this book would make a brilliant film.

Entertaining listen
Entertaining and very well narrated. It’s a then and now scenario which has become very popular in recent years. I must confess to a few eye rolls, when you realise what is going on and you hear “chapter xxxx”, there just seems to be too many chapters left to fill. But it was fine.

Didn't hang together for me
She loves her mother but immediately believes she isn't her mother. The mother with the abusive background immediately becomes a paragon of virtue with no flaws other than secrecy. The DNA is ignored until too late in the book. Too many holes in the plot. Disappointing
