Publisher's summary

A fresh and original take on a mystery within a mystery

Fresh from the inner city, Vince and Kate are new to the suburbia of Tabbett Drive, delighted to have accessed this middle-class paradise. They've even found the neighbours remarkably friendly; Jill and Dennis Seagrave seem particularly affable. However, Kate begins to detect all is not as it seems with the Seagraves. Can it be that beneath the fagade of this perfect suburban calm lie secrets as dangerous as any inner city? Is everything - is anything - as it seems?

Ugh well ermmmm

As clever as the story was as to how it was told, I just could not get in to it at all. I wanted to like it, I tried to like it, and well I just didn’t . Performance wise it was wonderful! She always does a great job portraying each character! It was just a poor storyline in my opinion..

Not sure why I bothered to finish it

Poor storyline-I guess that’s why it was free. Even the format of reading a series of letters was clumsy.

I wanted to like it. I really did.

Starting out different and unique, this is a free one I chose from Audible Plus. At first, the more I listened, the more addicted I became. Then, noooooooooo, soon I struggled to finish these “Letters.” Still, characterizations are expertly enacted by Lucy Price-Lewis, a favorite of mine. I skipped to the end. What a convoluted, ridiculous mess.
