About this audiobook

A gripping, twisty story of adultery and scandal from the bestselling author of Our House.

Everybody wants the truth . . . until they find it...

Ginny and Adam Trustlove arrive on holiday in Italy torn apart by personal tragedy. Two weeks in a boathouse on the edge of peaceful Lake Orta is exactly what they need to restore their faith in life - and each other.

Twenty-four hours later, the silence is broken. The Sale family have arrived at the main villa: wealthy, high-flying Marty, his beautiful wife Bea, and their privileged, confident offspring. It doesn't take long for Ginny and Adam to be drawn in, especially when the teenage Pippi introduces a new friend into the circle. For there is something about Zach that has everyone instantly beguiled, something that loosens old secrets - and creates shocking new ones.

And, yet, not one of them suspects that his arrival in their lives might be anything other than accidental . .

    I may revisit this again or read it instead of listening. I really rate Louise Candlish as an author, but the narration put me off as it sounds like someone disinterested, reading to a child.

    Having never been aware of her until fairly recently, I have now read a few books by Louise Candlish this year. She has a great knack of relating a story from different, even conflicting, perspectives, and of identifying fragilities and tensions within relationships. I have found that she is also adept at creating a wide cast of characters who are all difficult to like, without making the reader reluctant to continue.This book focuses on two families who end up in close proximity to each other on holiday in the Italian lakes. Adam and Ginny Trustlove, who have booked the lodge house for a large villa estate, are hoping that some time away will help them cope with a resent personal tragedy. Meanwhile the wealthy Sale family, owners of a multinational clothing franchise, have taken the villa itself. As the book progresses it becomes clear that all of the characters have their own deep secrets, and related vulnerabilities, and as the family groups become closer, these sensitivities are probed.This is one of Candlish’s earlier books, and while there are some familiar aspects, it is clear that she had not yet honed her skills to the pitch shown in later works sauch as ‘The Other Passenger’ and ‘Our House’. That is not to say that it is not a good book – it is, and I enjoyed reading it. There were slightly fewer surprises than in the more recent novels, but she builds the tension very effectively.
