Publisher's summary

“So cleverly plotted and brimming with tension.”—Gillian McAllister

“First-rate suspense . . . hard to put down.”—Shari Lapena

A bestselling detective novelist and her family are in danger when chilling events from her novels begin happening around her in this gripping thriller from the British sensation—the #1 internationally bestselling author of The Girls Who Disappeared and The Couple at Number 9.

Emilia has a dream life. But someone knows the truth . . .

Emilia Ward lives in suburban London with her husband, their young son, and a teenager from her first marriage. Emilia is an ordinary mom—and she’s also the bestselling author of the Miranda Moody detective novels.

But when writing her tenth—and most difficult—book, life takes a disturbing turn: an incident mimicking the plot of one of her novels occurs in real life. Just an unsettling coincidence, right?

Until it happens again. And again.

Then someone she knows dies in the same way as a victim in the book she's currently writing.

Why is someone doing this?

What do they want?

How could they possibly know what she’s thinking—and writing?

Is Emilia and her family next?

Überraschend Gut!

Nach vielen Behauptungen, dass dies das schlechteste Buch der Autorin wäre, habe ich nicht viel erwartet, das Buch hat mich aber positiv überrascht! Ich habe alle Bücher von Claires Douglas gelesen/gehört und sie als „ganz OK“ empfunden (spannende Handlungen aber meistens fehlte mir etwas, der twist war zu offensichtlich oder ich empfand da Verhalten der Charaktere nicht nachvollziehbar). Dieses Buch ist aber echt ein solider Krimi-vielleicht sogar das beste was die Autorin bis jetzt geschrieben hat.

A solid listen

I am a big fan of Claire Douglas. IMO she’s one of the most talented mystery authors out there right now.
Right there with the other greats like Lucy Foley, Ruth Ware, Lisa Jewell, and Alice Feeney.
This book is solid but not phenomenal or particularly unique like some of her other offerings.
I’m glad I listened to it but, unlike other things she’s written I most likely won’t listen to this one a second time.
An interesting story, a solid plot with interesting characters but nothing stood out to make this a special or particularly original book.
Just about everything I’ve read of hers is riveting, this was good, just a solid and well written story (and that’s more than I can do) but for CD it’s basic.

Twists and turns

I really enjoy Claire Douglas books. This read was wonderful and I truly loved all of the twists in the characters. I was thinking one character was guilty and I was soon to realize I was wrong in my thoughts. I give this book a five star review although at times I had difficulty keeping all of the characters straight in my mind.

My least favorite C.D book :(

I lost track of how many times I realized this book was playing , and I had tuned out. It never really grabbed my attention. it was an everyone becomes a suspect who dunnit, but not a very interesting one, and unfortunately the narrator didn't make it much better . It all just ran together for me, and by the end, I no longer really cared who did what. I was just glad for it to end. Maybe the writer was in a slump, like the one in this book
