The gripping standalone thriller from Sunday Times No. 1 bestselling author Karin Slaughter, now a major Netflix series starring Toni Collette and Bella Heathcote
She’s the person you think you know best…
But what if you don’t actually know her at all?
Andy Oliver thinks she knows everything about her mother Laura.
Until, in a moment of terrible danger, Laura steps forward into the line of fire.
Now, Andy must embark on a desperate race against time to uncover the secrets of her mother’s past.
Before they both run out of time…

Written in alternating present and past chapters, the full story of her mother's youth is revealed. Descriptions are vivid, the story moves at a steady pace and characters are mostly well developed. And herein lies the problem: both the main protagonist, Andy, and in large part her mother, are such annoyingly silly people it is very hard to relate to them. However, the background story is sufficiently interesting to carry the reader onward, the text well written. But frequent repetition also cluttered the book, as if the reader needed periodic updates on what has gone before,l leaving a book which would have benefited in losing perhaps four or five hours of the sixteen of this book.
Narration is by Kathleen Early, whose pleasant voice is well modulated, with a steady pace but without clear definition of voices of the characters. It was a fine reading rather than an actual performance.
An enjoyable, stand alone mystery thriller perhaps better read in print where repetitious chunks can more easily be skipped.
