About this listen
Jenny Bowen is going home. Following an acrimonious split from her husband, she is quitting her job and moving back from London to the small town in the Scottish Highlands where she grew up. After tying up some last-minute loose ends, she rushes to Euston and boards the Caledonian Sleeper, headed north on a 500 mile, 10-hour journey through the night.
As Jenny is getting settled in her cabin, she hears a commotion outside in the corridor. She sees a pale little girl of about eight years old being bundled into a cabin down the carriage, with a stressed-looking woman whom Jenny assumes to be her mother. A tall man glances at the pair as he passes them. Jenny thinks it's strange that he has no luggage. He gives her a look that makes her uneasy before opening the door of the cabin next to her.
When they reach their destination in the morning, Jenny discovers the woman dead in her cabin...but there's no sign of the little girl. The train company have no record of a child of that age being booked on the train, and CCTV shows the dead woman boarding alone.
Jenny starts to get settled in her new home. She tries to put the incident out of her head and tells herself that everyone else is right: she must have imagined the little girl, or it was a misunderstanding. But deep down, she knows that isn't the truth.

Suspend your disbelief!
I enjoyed this escapist story, which is well read by Carolyn Bonnyman but really implausible! But a good level of suspense and plenty of villains makes for an entertaining cat and mouse scenario.
It’s a bit like the Lady Vanishes to start with, as nobody believes the main character actually saw a child in the sleeping compartment of an overnight train to Scotland when the young woman with her is found dead of an apparent drug overdose the next morning.The hunt is then on to find out who she was and where she’s been taken. Difficult when nobody believes she existed in the first place....
Definitely worth a credit but don’t do what I did, which was to listen at bedtime and find myself still intrigued at 2am.

A great listen
Loved it, I needed a distraction and this fit the bill perfectly. Great description that set the scene easily to picture in my mind. Very good narration.

Great Book
From the start I was hooked, loved the story, characters and the narrator were fantastic. Glad I took the gamble as this book was newly released without any reviews when I bought it. A must listen

Twist upon twist, simply marvellous
Characters so believable you feel you know them so well set within a plot with constant twists and turns that kept you on the edge of your seat until the very last, quite marvellous.

Narrator puts me to sleep
Possibly a gd book. But since it made me sleepy most times, it’s hard to tell.

Nonsense
Contrived, ridiculous, implausible nonsense. One of the worst books I’ve listened to. Saved only slightly by the excellent narrator.

Too grisly for me !
A bit too grisly for me and not very believable. Difficult to say why without ‘spoilers’. The narrator however is excellent
