About this listen
The Sunday Times best seller and Richard & Judy Book Club author of Sleep returns with her most gripping book yet.
Three strangers. Three secrets. And one big lie.
First there’s Ursula. Unable to face up to the tragedy that consumes her, her world has shrunk to an almost unrecognisable state. But a string of missing people—and her housemate’s permanently locked basement door—set off a chain of events that she soon has no control over.
Then Alice, who’s in the first flush of her relationship with Simon, a man she met by chance, and who seems perfectly normal—except that he flinches at the slightest touch.
And Gareth, who lives a humdrum life as he struggles to cope with his mum’s increasing dementia. She can’t remember much about her days—not even when a postcard from his long-dead father comes through the door.
None of these three strangers have ever met, but their worlds will soon collide in the most dramatic way possible, as the lie that has been told is finally answered for....
The master of suspense is back! Prepare yourself for the latest nail-shredding, heart-in-mouth roller coaster ride from the Sunday Times best seller.

This was listened to in one sitting!
When you have a combination of C.L. Taylor and Clare Corbett, you are pretty much guaranteed a winner. Strangers did not disappoint! I loved everything about about this book, so much so that I did it in one sitting
You know its a good read when you feel that you know the characters personally. Ursula, in particular, will stay in my mind for a long time.

A slow burn
I enjoyed this book, but it took a while to get going and I was struggling to keep the characters straight in my head because they took a while to develop and so did my interest in their lives. Was worth listening through though. Narration was good too.

Gripping!
Such a gripping story and so well narrated! Had to limit myself so I didn’t binge listen! The characters were very relatable and their stories believable.

Couldn't stop listening!
Drew me in right from the start. Thoroughly enjoyed this story and the characters. One of the best books I've listened to in a while, and brilliant narration.

Wasn’t expecting to enjoy this as much as I did
Great yarn, well written and narrated. I became quite invested in the characters and found myself wanting to get back to the book at every opportunity. Will download other books by this author (Clare Corbetts narration has matured massively, she did a great job)
