About this listen

Who knows your darkest secret?

After every parents' evening, friends Nina, Bel and Rachel look forward to their regular debrief at the pub. But there will be no clinking Prosecco tonight.

They are discussing an anonymous note that has been left in a child's schoolbag: this class has secrets. All the parents tell lies.

As more notes are discovered, scandalous accusations are made and the school playground becomes rife with rumours.

Who could be revealing the three friends' secrets? Because they thought the only people who knew everything about them were each other....

An addictive psychological suspense thriller full of twists and turns, perfect for fans of Heidi Perks, Lisa Hall and Jane Corry.

Loved every minute

The story unfolded gently while every detail entertained and swept you up into the lives of these women and their families. I highly recommend. I found the cadence of this story unique and easy to listen to. The narration was perfection.

Nice, light listen/read

Nice story, well told. The reader rightly suspects so many characters of the various misdeeds committed throughout the novel. In the end, characters stay true to form, which is a relief. There is nothing worse than a deus ex machina moment when it pertains to a character in a mystery.

Along those lines, I did take issue with a main character- Nina - who is a lawyer specializing in corporate acquisitions, mergers, etc. who, with a single partner, built an extremely successful and lucrative practice. She is the sort of person one imagines to be highly intelligent, with a track record of smart decisions. At least one of the characters even remarks on Nina's capacity for cool focus. Even so, she makes one emotion-driven, ludicrously stupid mistake after another, especially in connection to legal matters. This becomes frustrating to witness.

On another note, whilst children's characters are usually charmingly depicted, Poppy's voice made me want to beg for admittance into a senior living community. The annoying whine was likely intentional , and that particular voice actor performed all too well, if that was the case. Otherwise, I was enthralled by the performances.

A REAL Slow Start BUT an Unexpected Twist

This book was hard to listen to until about chapter 20…couldn’t return it, so it was my burden to bear. However, twist after twist after twist made up for the painful beginning.

Lil bit “Rah-DIC-ulous” but YAS

Good, absurdly dramatic, not very substantial, kind of trashy, Rachel sux (this is not a spoiler), decent mystery! YAS FOR THE TWISTS!

Whispers

This was my most favorite book. The story line, the individual friends, the plot, all of it held my attention to the end. I appreciated the narration as well as the book! Thank you so much for this amazing read.
