About this listen
How well do you know the people you love?
Best friends Noah Sadler and Abdi Mahad have always been inseparable. But when Noah is found floating unconscious in Bristol's Feeder Canal, Abdi can't - or won't - tell anyone what happened.
Just back from a mandatory leave following his last case, Detective Jim Clemo is now assigned to look into this unfortunate accident. But tragedy strikes, and what looked like the simple case of a prank gone wrong soon ignites into a public battle. Noah is British. Abdi is a Somali refugee. And social tensions have been rising rapidly in Bristol. Against this background of fear and fury, two families fight for their sons and for the truth. Neither of them knows how far they will have to go, what demons they will have to face, what pain they will have to suffer.
Because the truth hurts.

Rachel Jenner is walking in a Bristol park with her eight-year-old son, Ben, when he asks if he can run ahead. It's an ordinary request on an ordinary Sunday afternoon, and Rachel has no reason to worry - until Ben vanishes. Police are called, search parties go out, and Rachel, already insecure after her recent divorce, feels herself coming undone. As hours and then days pass without a sign of Ben, everyone who knew him is called into question, from Rachel's newly married ex-husband to her mother-of-the-year sister.

Story
Bestselling mystery writer Lucy Harper's talent for invention has given her fame, fortune, and an army of adoring readers. It has also saddled her with dependents, namely her fawning husband Dan. When Dan suddenly goes missing, his disappearance evokes dark memories that take Lucy back more than thirty years—to the day her brother vanished without a trace. That's when Lucy began conjuring stories. The police investigation revealed few confirmed details, so she created tales to fill in the gaps, to explain what happened that day her brother disappeared—and Lucy was the only witness.

Of course, I’m not going to murder her in the night. I need my laptop back first. That’s the whole point of making friends with Emily Harper, author of the hugely successful novel Diary of an Octopus. So I could get into her apartment and take back what’s mine. Emily doesn’t know who I really am. She thinks I’m her biggest fan, her new best friend who happens to need a place to stay for a few days. She doesn’t realize the laptop she found—and took—from a busy airport almost two years ago was mine. I don’t care about the laptop, just what's on it: my diary.

Great story development
Like the characters as well. The story is like getting puzzle pieces at random out of the box. Not sure how they fit together until the end. But they are related enough that you know they are going to fit sometime.

A Mile Away...
Could see the resolution to the mystery from the earliest chapters. Not a very mysterious mystery. Slow and predictable. Decent narration but had issues with incorrect pronunciation too many times.

Wow!
A well written mystery, with characters interesting and complex. Background stories of both main characters add depth to this excellent book. I fully enjoyed this book.

Actual tears
I liked the complexity of different backgrounds, being a main character of this book. I’m writing a review because I cried actual tears in the last chapter, which I don’t think I’ve ever done. Highly recommended.

Not predictable with believable characters
I love British mysteries...esp on audiobook. But I get REALLY FRUSTRATED at predictable outcomes & authors who rely on characters’ illogical actions to make the plot line work. NOT THE CASE WITH THIS ONE! Further, the author (& the presenter) left the ethnicity of the main detective a bit ambiguous...which I liked. Good story, characters & plot.
