About this listen
‘I gobbled it up in two sittings, quickly turning pages to see what would happen next. The windswept, desolate setting, cold, gloomy manor house and dark characters created the perfect stormy day read… And did I mention the twists? Oh my goodness!’ NetGalley reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
When a young widow’s little girl vanishes, could a dark family secret hold the answer?
On the death of her aunt Gwyn, Lowri returns once more to Gwyn’s home on the remote island of Anglesey, Wales, with her young daughter Ruby in tow. Lowri hadn’t seen her aunt in years, but this beautiful island offers a fresh start.
Yet right away, strange things begin to happen. Ruby insists an old woman is visiting her when no one else is watching, and a tattered old doll keeps being left for Ruby to find.
Then Ruby goes missing. Desperately seeking answers no one seems to have, Lowri looks to her dark family past for clues. But the secrets she uncovers suggest that Ruby is not the only one in danger, and time is running out – for both of them…
A terrifically dark and twisty tale that asks: can you ever really trust those closest to you? Perfect for fans of Ruth Ware, Cass Green and C.J. Tudor.

I was enjoying this book until it centred around the disappearance of the main characters daughter.
The reader was then expected to emphasise with a Mother who then decided to frame an innocent man (a long absent Step Father) with the disappearance of, and potential abuse, of a missing child.
The reader is also expected to accept the Mothers' belief that it would then be in the best interests of that child to stay in the same house and raise that child amongst the same vengeful relatives that orchestrated her disappearance in the first place.
The whole narrative around the missing child was implausible and inaccurate. There are many aids an Author could use to research Police protocol when a child goes missing - sadly it was absent here and could trigger those who have been in a similar situation.
A sensitive subject poorly researched
