Summary

The brilliant new novel from the author of the highly acclaimed The Bone Keeper.
‘High-concept serial killer thriller with twists and heart. Stunning’ Steve Cavanagh

Six friends trapped by one dark secret.

It was supposed to be our last weekend away as friends, before marriage and respectability beckoned. But what happened that Saturday changed everything.

In the middle of the night, someone died. The six of us promised each other we would not tell anyone about the body we buried. But now the pact has been broken. And the killing has started again …

Who knows what we did? And what price will we pay?

Praise for Luca Veste’s novels:
‘Properly Stephen King-style creepy’ Ian Rankin
‘Perfectly terrifying' Amanda Jennings
‘A dark and brilliant thriller from a writer who just gets better and better’ Mark Billingham
‘An entertainingly nasty piece of work' Christopher Brookmyre

Good thriller worth a listen

The story is a good one not as predictable as most the narrator really makes the story come to life gives the thrilling and nervous atmosphere it needed . I think without that narrator the story would have fallen flat as an audible book

Totally compelling!

This is an excellent novel. The characters are richly drawn, the story is extremely strong and well written. I found it difficult to put down. The only downside here is the narration. It is actually very good in voice, pace and emphasis. The problem is much of it is set in Liverpool. Many of the characters are Liverpudlians and yet only Graham has a Scouse accent (the Manchester & North Lancashire accents also leave something to be desired), the narrator voices that accent perfectly well, so I am at a loss as to why it is not used for the other relevant characters!

Absorbing

I wasn’t sure about this but it drew me in and I was trying to work it out along with Matt. It kept me guessing. Not saying any more or it will spoil the ending.

The Six ....then five....then four...

My first book by this author and I really enjoyed it till the last hour or so when it went a wee bit askew. 6 friends go away for the weekend something terrible happens and then someone starts bumping them off. Throw in a serial killer, missing bodies and you do have a decent novel. It's the ending that spoiled it for me. It's just way too coincidental and I knew who the killer was from early on.

Very poor

This is just a mashup of half a dozen other stories already out there. A little bit of this and a little bit of that thrown together to make a confusing and long drawn out forgettable attempt at a thriller.
I generally like Luca Veste as a storyteller but this is not anywhere near his usual standard.
