Summary

Estranged from his family for most of his adult life, Chris Napier is persuaded to return home for his niece's wedding. At the reception, he is shocked to recognise a dishevelled intruder as his childhood friend Nicky Lanyon, whose presence is a chilling reminder of a murder and subsequent trial that Chris has tried hard to forget.

When Nicky hangs himself, Chris is compelled to revisit the tragic events of 34 years ago and the apparent justice that was served. But as present-day mysteries begin to shadow his footsteps into the past, his search for the truth soon becomes a desperate struggle for his own survival.

Gripping

Wow what a page turner. I finished it in two days because I couldn’t stop. Twists, turns and revelations constantly. Fabulous book.

Robert Goddard never fails.

Love his writing and love John Telfer's narration. The detail, the twists in the development of the story, the final resolution, always make Robert Goddard 's books some of the best.

Wonderful

Another great read with lots of twists. Suspense until the very last sentence, and then a surprise!

Gradual build up…

… and full of twists and turns. I had to turn the speed up a bit to get it going because the delivery, while good, was a bit ponderous, but I very much enjoyed it.

Stick with it

A slow start but stick with it as it gathers pace nicely and grips you with the plot twists!

Long winded beginning

The first hour is overly descriptive and rather tedious, but it is worth sticking with it as after this it’s a good story.

Great Story telling

Have only recently discovered Robert Goddard and have stormed through this book and Painting in Darkness. I found they both start quite slowly but once into the story I become absorbed with the tale itself and all the twists and turns. Beyond Recall had me gripped from start to finish and the narration is wonderful John Telfer has a glorious voice. Already downloading Hand in Glove!

Another great audiobook from Mr Goddard

As in the title: interesting plot, twists of action, great language and very good narrator - once I began to listen, I didn't want to stop.

So many twists

Another great page turner, full of many twists. You work out who the villains are only to be wrong. Just when you think all is well another avenue opens up. Excellent story.

Another good one

Robert Goddard is such a great story writer!!!! They’re all different and you have to keep listening to hear more about his characters till the last word. He chooses really good narrators too with John Telfer Paul Shelley and Michael Kitchen Terrific.
