About this listen
‘Well! I HORSED through The Nurse, pure HORSED! Tense, pacey, unputdownable.’ – MARIAN KEYES
Someone is watching her. She just doesn’t know it yet.
Nell Sweeney has led an ordinary life. Every day she walks to and from the hospital where she works as a nurse, believing that no harm can befall her.
Until one day she is taken.
Because someone out there has a secret. Someone out there has been watching Nell – and they’ve been watching others like her too.
Nell is the unlucky one – she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. And if she isn’t found soon, someone will make sure that she isn’t the last woman to disappear…
A chilling, gripping read, perfect for fans of Clare Mackintosh and Gillian McAllister.

A good story but a bit patronising
This was a thrilling story but suggested that all women are frightened of men and walking alone at night a bit too much for me.

The best yet!
Absolutely gripping story from start to finish. I cried and I gasped and I ranted and raged. Characters I bonded with, characters I hated. Terrifying, thought provoking and deeply disturbing. Brilliant story telling and twists I did not see coming. Loved it.

Excellent!
A brilliant suspense story that had me glued until the very end. I love all Claire Allen books, but this is the best by far!
Excellent story with characters that had me brimming with emotions! Well worth listening to and a storyline that will stay with you after the final chapter. Brilliant
The performance for audible was brilliant, made me feel everything I heard! I was angry, I felt despair and I cried!!!

Brilliant story and narration
Brilliantly read and written book. The narration is some of the best I’ve heard and I finished it within 2 days. Captivating and thought provoking. Will definitely be reading some more of this author’s books

Great book
Enjoyed this book a lot, it kept me gripped and I really enjoyed the twist. I will say I do think I would have enjoyed reading this more than listening as the mother’s narration did grate on me more often than not. Otherwise it was great and I have been recommending it already
