THE INCREDIBLE DEBUT PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE PERFECT LIE

"Spain's blackly comic touch pulls us through a brilliantly dark tale" - Daily Mail

**********

SOMETIMES THE TRUTH IS NOT ALL IT SEEMS...
SOMETIMES A CONFESSION IS JUST THE BEGINNING...

Late one night a man walks into the luxurious home of disgraced banker Harry McNamara and his wife Julie. The man launches an unspeakably brutal attack on Harry as a horror-struck Julie watches, frozen by fear. It looks like Harry's many sins - corruption, greed, betrayal - have finally caught up with him.

An hour later the intruder, JP Carney, hands himself in, confessing to the assault. The police have a victim, a suspect in custody and an eye-witness account, but Julie remains troubled.

Has Carney's surrender really been driven by a guilty conscience or is this confession the first calculated move in a deadly game?

PERFECT FOR FANS OF THEN SHE WAS GONE AND THE GOOD DAUGHTER

Lesestimme gut, Story sehr gut, kleiner Twist am Ende hat mir gut gefallen, ohne wäre es etwas lame gewesen

I loved the 1st person perspective. That way it took me a while to realize ai simply couldn't stand one of the main characters. To me, they stand for everything that is wrong with Ireland.
Legendary!
The story itself is so well written and it takes ages to understand what happened and how.
The two narrators were born for their job.

one of the best audiobooks I've ever listened to
