Publisher's summary

The perfect escape....

Gabrielle Adams has it all - brains, beauty, a handsome fiancé, and a dream job in publishing. Until, one day, everything changes.

"The Tube Killer" takes his victims when they least expect it: standing on the edge of a busy London Underground platform, as they wait for a train to arrive through the murky underground tunnels of London.

Gabrielle soon learns that being a survivor is harder than being a victim, and she struggles to return to her old life. Desperate to break free from the endless nightmares, she snatches up an opportunity to run a tiny bookshop in a picturesque cove in rural Cornwall.

She thinks she's found the perfect escape, but has she swapped one nightmare for another?

Suspense and mystery are peppered with romance and humor in this fast-paced thriller, set amidst the spectacular Cornish landscape.

Thrilled with the Cove. Is there such a place?

I long to live in the Cove. LJ Ross creates a charming and endearing corner of England with charm and heartfelt emotion. Each character is brought to life by a favorite narrator of mine, Clare Corbett. The subplots are so well done, I felt as if I was in the Cove. Characters are endearing and delightful with a sprinkle of humor and mystery thrown in to make for an audictive listen and a jaw-dropping finale I never saw coming. Ross and Corbett are perfectly paired and I’ll be on the lookout for more. They combine their unique talents to bring us this complex offering. I’m thrilled I found this in Audible Plus catalogue. I do wish this book was more than the six-plus hours and hope that I have the chance to visit the Cove again and again… I’m on my way to “The Creek” soon.

Very enjoyable, quick read

Lovable characters and good mystery, I couldn't wait to see what happened but sad that the story is over. The narrator did a great job as well.

Mystery with bit of

…cozy on the side. This book was a good and fast read, very well written and kept me guessing until the reveal. I like the MFC and i enjoyed all the supporting characters, too. Set in a very cozy town in England.

Not believable

*SPOILERS ALERT*

Too contrived to be believed or compelling. Lost memory and gaslighting memes in the same work.
