Summary

As soon as we open the door to our beautiful new home, I sense their presence . . . the couple who lived here before us.

They’ve left things behind, as if on purpose, for us to find. First, there is the mysterious diary that ends too abruptly, followed by pictures of a couple in their thirties, just like us. Tired-looking parents with two small children. Who are they?

The ending was rather unsatisfying. It was well-written although the alternation between the two characters' points of views frustrated me, especially when the story was cut off, leaving cliff-hangers. The twist was interesting, but there was no real resolution. The story didn't truly end. Thus, I didn't feel relieved after all the drama.

Overall a decent listen with a decent enough plot . Well narrated. It was a book from audio plus and for a free book it was good and worth a listen . The characters were portrayed in a way that you got a sense of them and what they were about .

Good plot idea

Narration was good. Easy to follow despite the format of jumping to and fro between timelines (which in some books gets confusing) but really enjoyed this. It kept me interested!

Good narrator good story

I really enjoyed this book and listened to it very quickly but the ending was a big disappointment and rushed and a little silly.

Really good but then fell flat
