"I’m so very sorry. But your son is dead."

As I hear the words every mother dreads, my pulse races, and I go cold. But even as my world turns upside down, I know the things I’m being told just don’t add up. I have to find out what really happened the night my beautiful boy died....

The police tell me it was a tragedy no one could have prevented. But then they reveal the terrible things Tom was keeping from me. The person they describe is nothing like the decent, honest man I raised. Newly qualified as a doctor, Tom had such a bright future ahead of him.

A mother knows her own child. And I’m determined to prove my son’s innocence.

It’s the last thing I will ever be able to do for him. So I have come to the city where he lived and moved into his empty flat under a different name.

When I discover his diary, it becomes clear his death wasn’t an accident.

And as I get to know Tom’s friends and neighbors, I realize they’re all keeping secrets.

But as I get closer to the truth, I realise my life is in danger, too....

Unbelievably addictive and totally gripping with a twist you won’t see coming. Fans of The Perfect Couple, B A Paris, and JP Delaney will be absolutely hooked.

I found it just went on and on. I would drift from listening to the book. towards the end. I thought the story wasn't bad. I was getting bored with it, maybe I was too tired. Narrator did a great job.

...and I have read all of them. Firstly, the narrator ruins the book from the start - she has a sickly sweet British accent which does not change regardless of the various characters she portrays (so she basically reads the book). The story is about a woman who cannot accept her angel son (because we do hear how good he really has been since birth) has been involved in stealing drugs etc (or so the accusation goes). There are about 3 other characters who are so weak I cant remember their names. It was such a struggle that I had to pick it up a few times to progress. I managed 3/4 but finally gave up. Honestly don't bother, there are much better mystery / suspense books out there.

The worst Liz Lawyer book ever
