Publisher's summary
A luxury resort. Three missing women. One body.
When young London professional Alex Evans is informed that his sister's body has been pulled from an icy lake in Northern Lapland, he assumes his irresponsible sister accidentally drowned. He travels to the wealthy winter resort where Vicky worked as a tour guide and meets Agatha Koskinen, the detective in charge. Agatha is a no-nonsense single mother of three who already thinks there's more to Vicky's case than meets the eye.
As the two form an unlikely alliance, Alex also begins to suspect the small town where his sister lived and died is harbouring secrets. It's not long before he learns that three other women have gone missing from the area in the past and that his sister may have left him a message.
On the surface, Koppe, Lapland is a winter wonderland. But in this remote, frozen place, death seems only ever a heartbeat away.

Story
Death stalked the Vale. In every corner, every whisper. They just didn't know it yet. Six neighbours, six secrets, six reasons to want Olive Collins dead. In the exclusive gated community of Withered Vale, people's lives appear as perfect as their beautifully manicured lawns. Money, success, privilege - the residents have it all. Life is good. There's just one problem. Olive Collins' dead body has been rotting inside number four for the last three months. Her neighbours say they're shocked at the discovery, but nobody thought to check on her when she vanished from sight.

Story
It's June 2008 and 21-year-old Adam Lattimer vanishes, presumed dead. The strain of his disappearance breaks his already fragile family. Ten years later, with his mother deceased and siblings scattered across the globe, Adam turns up unannounced at the family home. His siblings return reluctantly to Spanish Cove, but Adam's reappearance poses more questions than answers. The past is a tangled web of deceit. And, as tension builds, it's apparent somebody has planned murderous revenge for the events of 10 years ago.

Fantastic story and narration
Jo Spain has quickly become one of my favorites. The dialogue and character interactions are so well done. Her protagonists are always very relatable in both their thoughts and behaviors. This is another story full of twists and turns and really left me guessing ‘til the end. I thoroughly enjoyed the story, as well as the usual fantastic performance by Jasmine Blackborow.

Incredibly dull
This just bored me so much. There's large parts where nothing happens. Hard to tell the did between some of the character. She doesn't give them distinctive voices. Wasted a credit

Waaay Too Long!
This 12-hour audiobook could have easily been a 6-hour book.
I loved Jo Spain's "The Confession" but this title did not meet my lofty expectations.
Narrator Jasmine Blackborow did a fabulous job with the narration but even a 5-star narrator could not save this book.
