Resumen del Editor

"A proper twisty thriller."—Sarah Pinborough

A stranger has infiltrated your family…and now he’s taking over.

Paul’s just here to help, or so he claims—sent by a charity for vulnerable people to do odd jobs for elderly widow Gwen. But for Gwen’s daughter Connie, there’s just something about Paul that rings alarm bells from day one. He’s a little too kind, a little too involved…Worse still, Gwen seems to have fallen under his spell.

The last thing Connie wants is a stranger meddling in the safe routine she’s built around Gwen. She loves being the one Gwen turns to for cooking, cleaning and company. But the more Paul visits, the more Gwen is relying on him. By the time he conveniently finds himself between homes and has no choice but to move in, Connie is certain he’s trying to push her out completely.

It’s her word against his, though, and as her attempts to unmask him become ever more desperate she’s not the only one left wondering if she’s lost her grip on reality. But when events start spiralling rapidly out of her control, should Connie wage all-out war on Paul and risk losing Gwen forever—or has that been his plan all along?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Though not yet a household name, Marrs is an incredibly talented storyteller with a built-in audience who knows what he can do. When unfamiliar readers get their hands on this one, they’ll want more.”—Booklist

“I inhaled this book. A novel of second guesses, of mistrustful characters and downright terrifying ones. An absolute ride of a thriller. I loved it.”—L. V. Matthews, author of The Twins and The Silent Waters

Twist after twist!

Another 5-star book from John Marrs! It was compelling from the start, I was sucked into the different characters and was caught off guard several times with twists. Loved every bit of it!

Wow

A totally grab your attention and keep you reading book! The twists and turns keep your head spinning. A WTF few moments and the ending that you don’t see coming! Fantastic read

A credit put to good use!

It just keeps getting better! John Marrs is such an amazing author. If you love some twists, you will this book.

who is the villian??

johm Marrs is the master of twists and this book is no different!!! You never know what character to trust, who is lying, who is genuine!!! the end is just as twisted.

Brilliant story with excellent narration!

This story has great character development and quite a few twists that aren’t far fetched. I thoroughly enjoyed this read/listen and would definitely recommend it.

Love the quick pace

I also read The One and loved the multiple POVs as a way to tell the story! It flows and it’s a very entertaining
story.

Great story line

Easy to follow, unexpected twists, good read. I really enjoyed the actual story. But not a huge fan of some of the narrators.

Lots of Twists

This was my least favorite John Marrs book but it was good enough to finish. Many twists and turns. I found the main character to be beyond annoying until close to the end of the book. And I did NOT enjoy the narrators for the older characters.

While I didn’t hate this book, I wouldn’t recommend it either. Just meh especially when compared to his other books which I loved. Can’t win them all. :-)

Amazing as usual

Didn’t expect anything less from the author. It’s another super twisty amazing book. Must read

the characters
