Summary
Newlywed Jade Westmore has finally found her forever in husband Wells, a charming, successful, and recently divorced architect—only there’s one caveat: behind the gates of their elysian estate, hidden from street view in the caretaker’s cottage … lives Wells’s first wife, Sylvie.
Three years ago, the original Mrs. Westmore suffered a nervous breakdown—and hasn’t uttered a sound since. Not a physician, psychologist, or world-renown specialist has been able to elicit so much as a word from the silent woman … until now.
On an ordinary Tuesday while Wells was away—despite instructions to never disturb the fragile woman—Jade visited her isolated predecessor bearing a peace offering: a bouquet of white lilies. Only she wasn’t expecting Sylvie to have something for her as well: a slip of torn notebook paper with a single word scrawled in shaky black ink.
That word? Run.

Great
Really enjoyed this book, kept me interested throughout with great characters story and narration. Loved the main character and appreciated that the rest of the characters were not one dimensional but exhibited the flaws of humanity as well as the desire to do the right thing.

Unbelievable
Some good twists and turns to the story - but the clinical picture is nowhere near plausible. A head injury combined with sedation wouldn’t just “turn off” a person!s voice. If there were a severe language or speech impairment, then recovery would involve a lot of hard work. Over many years the patient might regain some vocabulary, sentence structure and cognitive function. It’s not just an on switch!!

Brilliant and very engaging story
I loved this from the beginning to the end and loved the twists and turns in the book that had your heart thumping and fearing for the characters. All the characters in this book were engaging and likeable except for Mills . I would highly recommend this book and especially it was a free listen made it a huge bonus. Looking forward to listening to more of Minka Kent books. And high praise to the two Narrators as they brought the book to life and you felt every tense moment they were going through

good story keeps you guessing
this book captures your imagination very quickly and keeps you involved in the lives of the characters.its not a terrifying thriller but I don't believe it aims to be, iit is however a lighter story of someone willing to risk it all for a person they don't know, even to go as far as to risk Thier own life. But who is the person that is out to get them???

Disappointing Twist
This was recommended to me as a book with a really good twist. The story was interesting and read really well, but I was disappointed with the ending. A good listen but a fairly flat storyline.

Was it her or him?!
One of those books that makes you wonder about what’s behind everyone you meet beyond the public face.

Not engrossing by any means
I hoped I was going to be rewarded with a twist at the end…..it didn’t happen. Dull

ok, not sure I'd recommend
this was ok, I Finnished it just to find out the end that was poorly thrown together. started off good. I think the narrator may of spoiled it, had I read it myself it may of been better
