About this audiobook
“An addictive read; a strong recommendation for those who like suspense tinged with a little romance.”—Booklist
A woman without a memory struggles to discover the truth about her past and her identity in this cerebral and dark thriller reminiscent of works by bestselling authors S.J. Watson and Ruth Ware.
I have no memory of what happened but I was told I killed my son. And you believe what your loved ones, your doctor and the police tell you, don't you? My name is Emma Cartwright. Three years ago I was Susan Webster, and I murdered my twelve-week-old son Dylan. I was sent to Oakdale Psychiatric Institute for my crime, and four weeks ago I was released early on parole with a new identity, address, and a chance to rebuild my tattered life. This morning, I received an envelope addressed to Susan Webster. Inside it was a photograph of a toddler called Dylan. Now I am questioning everything I believe because if I have no memory of the event, how can I truly believe he's dead? If there was the smallest chance your son was alive, what would you do to get him back?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is such a great read, or well in my case audio . Plot was great and I loved the narrating .
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Entertaining enough book but HOLY MOUTH SOUNDS the swallowing and lip smacking was pretty gross and it was constant. My biggest pet peeve with audiobooks. Simon and Schuster audio... you should know better!
Not a bad story tho. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Brilliant storyline and wonderful narrator. Can’t put down until over!
