‘OH MY GOSH… Gripping’ NetGalley review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘Edge-of-your-seat thriller… Absolutely brilliant’ NetGalley review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘WOW… Intense, suspenseful… Heart-breaking’ NetGalley review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

She was the only one who escaped. This time she might not be so lucky…

My name is Lucy Townsend.

I was born on Friday the thirteenth, and I was the thirteenth girl living in the big house. Unlucky for some.

But I was the fortunate one. I escaped. The only one who made it out alive.

And now, twenty years after that fateful night, the secrets of the past and what happened in that house are pulling me back.

I might not be so lucky this time…

A totally gripping, edge-of-your-seat thriller with twists and turns you just won’t see coming. Perfect for fans of Girl A and The Family Upstairs.

Having loved the author's debut novel, Stranded, I was excited to listen to this one. I love books about cults so this was right up my street! I had read several negative reviews of this book, but they didn't put me off because thankfully I enjoyed it a lot! It flowed well at just the right pace and there were plenty of twists and turns along the way. It was quite a harrowing listen and made me feel quite uncomfortable at times, and I felt really sorry for the main character, Lucy, who was so damaged by her past.

The narration by Charlotte Worthing was great.

A fabulous read brilliantly narrated. Started slowly & built chapter upon chapter until a breath holding climax. I fully recommend ❤️

I'm in a minority here, but I didn't see the pageturning story. First part was, how to say this politely, boring. Then it got better and I tight the story and the characters just need the time, but eventually all of it was a bit far fetched.I hope the other listeners will enjoy this much more.

Repetitive and not enough thriller-y
