The Good Listener
Autor Holly Watten Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 iul 2026
'TRULY ORIGINAL' Ellery Lloyd
'FABULOUS' Nikki Smith
An anonymous call. A mother desperate for justice.
The Good Listeners are there for anyone who needs to talk.
When the phone rings, a Good Listener has no idea who could be at the other end. The woman cheating on her husband, the man who has lost yet another job, the teenager struggling at school...
And Clara is prepared for every kind of caller. Except this one.
Because the woman on the other end of the line has just told her 'my husband killed a little girl.'
And two years ago, Clara's own daughter was murdered and her killer never caught.
The police have no leads. This is Clara's only chance of justice. But when the caller is anonymous, what chance does she have of finding them?
A thriller with heart, a page-turner with depth, an unputdownable read: make Holly Watt's The Good Listener the next book you pre-order

Recenzii
An ingenious hook, expertly developed and carried through in a typically propulsive, intelligent read. Watt manages to take the most disturbing of subjects and avoid making it feel exploitative or mawkish. Her love of Dartmoor - wild and secretive - shines through, even as we understand its danger, but it was the sense of past traumas impacting on the present that struck me in this cat-and-mouse read
I adore Holly Watt's storytelling. The Good Listener is an intelligent, involving novel with the pace of the most propulsive thriller, and a story that sweeps you into its emotional heart
It's so rare to read a truly original thriller plot, but this is one. Watt's plotting is so clever that this is a book that you immediately want to reread to collect all the clever clues and misdirections. The interactions between the two women are more than a game of cat and mouse - they're almost a dance. This is the perfect book club book -- there is so much to think about that you're left dying to talk to someone about it!
A fabulous thriller with a premise that had me hooked right from the start. In Clara, Holly has created a protagonist who is broken after facing a mother's worst nightmare but who is then given a chance to find the answer she so desperately seeks. A truly emotional, utterly gripping read - this is perfect book club material. I loved it
Tense, heartfelt and profoundly moving. Even murderers need Good Listeners
PRAISE FOR THE LAST TRUTHS WE TOLD: 'Seriously good. Ingenious plotting and the sort of writing that makes you pause and wish you'd penned that'
PRAISE FOR THE LAST TRUTHS WE TOLD: 'Absolute book-club dynamite. A must-read!'
PRAISE FOR THE LAST TRUTHS WE TOLD: 'Very well written and genuinely creepy '
