About this audiobook
An Amazon Charts bestseller.
Emma’s darkest secrets are buried in the past. But the truth can’t stay hidden for long.
Emma is a loving wife, a devoted mother…and an involuntary killer. For years she’s been hiding the dead body of the teacher who seduced her as a teen.
It’s a secret that might have stayed buried if only her life had been less perfect. A promotion for Emma’s husband, Alex, means they can finally move to a bigger home with their young son. But with a buyer lined up for their old house, Emma can’t leave without destroying every last trace of her final revenge…
Returning to the shallow grave in the garden, she finds it empty. The body is gone.
Panicked, Emma confesses to her husband. But this is only the beginning. Soon, Alex will discover things about her he’ll wish he’d learned sooner. And others he’ll long to forget.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Everyone annoyed me. Emma, Alex, Luke and even Teresa. I wanted to smack the living daylights out of the adult Emma and certainly the teenaged one. I’m not sure I’d recommend, but it did pass the time while I cleaned my home and ran errands around town on the weekend.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Too long too boring and the end did not make sense. Save yourself the nine hours and do anything else!

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good read (well.. good listen I should say). Narrators were great. The storyline itself was okay. Predictable in some parts but still made for a bit of excitement in the build up to it. Would recommend

Emma is a loving wife, a devoted mother…and an involuntary killer. For years she’s been hiding the dead body of the teacher who seduced her as a teen.
It’s a secret that might have stayed buried if only her husband, Alex, hadn't wanted to move so badly and gotten a promotion. Now they must move. But Emma can’t leave without destroying every last trace of evidence. Returning to the shallow grave in the garden, she finds it empty. The body is gone.
Panicked, Emma confesses to her husband. But this is only the beginning. Soon, Alex will discover things about her he’ll wish he’d learned sooner. And others he’ll long to forget.

Wow! What an incredible and intense story! I didn't want to put this one down, the story just kept getting better and better! I enjoyed how it's told from multiple perspectives, uses a past/present, back-and-forth style to create suspense and tension as it unravels all the histories, personalities, relationships, and motivations within it. The twisty plot and the unrelenting tension meant the build up here was immense! This novel was believable, manipulative and completely engrossing. Highly Recommend!
