I trusted her. I shouldn’t have…

Samantha Valentine didn’t drift into my life, she collided with it. Soon it was like we had been friends forever. She told me everything about her perfect life, but I always felt there was something she was leaving out.

Then one night, I get a frantic call from Samantha, hysterical and begging me to protect her from her boyfriend. Rushing to her house, instinct takes over and soon my heart is hammering out of my chest as I stand over the body of a man I had never met before this evening.

But by the time the police arrive, Samantha has vanished. The officers tell me that there is no record of her anywhere. The woman I thought was my friend has tricked me into killing a perfect stranger.

As the police slip the handcuffs on my wrists, I know I’ve made a terrible mistake. By protecting a woman I never really knew, I’ve destroyed my life. Who is Samantha really, and why did she make me do this? She’s taken everything from me, but she has no idea how far I will go to get the truth…

A gripping psychological thriller absolutely packed with twists. Perfect for fans of T.M. Logan, Frieda McFadden and Daniel Hurst.

Best one yet

I've been following this series from the beginning and this Dan Riley book was the best so far. The set up was great and the tension had me involved all through the book. The premise was really quite amazing. I had so many questions and I just didn't know where it was gonna go, which is the best part of suspense. Obviously you should start at the beginning of the series so you know what's been going on with Dan but when you get to this one, you'll really have a good time.

Loved it!

I love this series. Detective Dan Riley is all that and a bag of chips.

I loved it!!

This was such a good listen! I really enjoyed this book! Twist and turns. Good dialogue, kept me on my toes. I also liked the narrator, they did an amazing job. This definitely worth a listen.

the plot

I didn't know the end until the end. it kept you guessing. Great twisted plot

Loved This!

Initially, I was uncertain about the glaring incongruity between story and narration. Soon however, both became undeniably dependent on the other, making for a very enjoyable listen :)
