Summary
Arriving on the windswept Ile de Ré, Tabby Dewhurst is unable to even afford a room for the night. Overhearing a villager repeating the access code to her front door, she lets herself into the house, and so she enters the strange, hidden world of Emmie, whose sudden offer of friendship is at odds with her obsession with privacy.
Tabby begins to form suspicions about Emmie, suspicions that lead her to a scandal with shattering consequences.

Fabulous and Totally Engrossing
I loved this book it was such an unusual story and had me hooked from the first minute. I really enjoyed the narration and found the character voices just right. I love Louise Candlish's books the dialogue is so realistic and the characters so well drawn. It does not matter to me that there are no great twists and turns these books are just a great listen. I am now working my way through all her titles but have been disappointed with her earlier works she is certainly an author who has really developed and always manages to create interesting and unusual plots. I would well recommend this as a good solid holiday read.

Gripping.
There's a very clever twist. So far I've loved everything I've read by Louise Candlish.

Rather abrupt ending.
I was really enjoying this story and I love her books in general but thought it slightly lost its way then seemed to have a rather abrupt ending!

Epilogue not there
There is an epilogue to this book. The author wrote it. I have seen it in a copy belonging to a friend. Why was it not narrated feel cheated

well written but frustrating
I had the same problem with this book that I seem to have with all Louise Candlish books which results in a bit if a love hate relationship... I really like her writing and her observations but I find her plotting frustrating. foreshadowing is a great tool but Candlish uses this, and dual narratives, so much that most of the time we've long worked out what's about to happen and are waiting for one of the characters to catch up. I was also infuriated by a double standard that went completely unchallenged or commented on in the book.

Disappointing ending
Loved the story and was riveted all the way through. Couldn't wait to find out what happened but was totally let down at the end. Don't know if it's just me but I didn't get it. What happened to eve and is it the real Emily Marr who lives with Arthur? What a let down.
In the positive I love Louise candlish books.

The disappearance of an ending
I enjoyed most of the story and even the unlikely twist but had to listen to the last chapter again in case I'd fallen asleep and missed something. I hadn't, it just finished very abruptly, leaving the question of what happened to Eve unanswered.
