fullDescription

A gripping new psychological thriller from S.J. Watson, the New York Times bestselling author of Before I Go to Sleep, in which a documentary filmmaker travels to a sleepy fishing village to shoot her new film and encounters a dark mystery surrounding the disappearance of a local girl.

They tried to hide the truth. But the camera never lies...

Blackwood Bay. An ordinary place, home to ordinary people.

It used to be a buzzing seaside destination. But now, ravaged by the effects of dwindling tourism and economic downturn, it's a ghost town—and the perfect place for film-maker Alex to shoot her new documentary. But the community is deeply suspicious of her intentions. After all, nothing exciting ever happens in Blackwood Bay—or does it?

   • content: Listeners join Alex, a documentary filmmaker, as she arrives in her hometown, a run-down northern England seaside resort, to collect stories of everyday people. As the plot unfolds, we find that nothing is as it seems, and Alex must fight for her future as well as discover a truth hidden in her past. Lead narrator Billie Fulford Brown brings the story alive. Her characterizations of the three male characters are particularly strong; she gives each a unique voice, while her believable accents help to provide an authentic-sounding backdrop. Additional narrators read snippets from case notes peppered throughout the story, which add backstory. The result is a satisfying listen. K.J.P. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine

     Starred review from June 15, 2020
     Award-winning documentary filmmaker Alex Young, the narrator of this outstanding psychological thriller from Watson (Before I Sleep), needs a new assignment to keep her career’s momentum. But Alex isn’t enthusiastic when her producer receives an unsigned postcard urging her to go Blackwood Bay, a small English town that was the site of smuggling operations centuries ago. The job is to document daily life in Blackwood Bay. As town residents send their own videos to Alex, she’s more interested in the disappearances of three teenage girls over the past decade. It’s not the project that Alex dreads, but dredging up lost memories, since Alex believes she’s one of those girls. She has no idea why she fled—perhaps because she was in danger. Having changed her looks, Alex digs into the girls’ backgrounds while keeping her identity secret and trying to remember which of the residents she might have known. A tight, brisk plot drives this sharp character study. Watson perfectly capture small town ennui while illustrating how corruption can hide in plain sight. Agent: Clare Conville, Conville & Walsh (U.K.).

     June 15, 2020
     A documentarian gets more than she bargains for when she chooses remote Blackwood Bay as the location of her next film. Alexandra Young's harrowing first film, Black Winter, won her accolades, but her second film was a failure, and she needs another hit or her career may be in jeopardy. Alex wants to document what life is like in a small village in the north of England by asking people to send in their own footage, which she would then curate. She secures funding, and the people who hold the purse strings coax her into choosing Blackwood Bay, where she spent a troubled childhood, as her subject. She wouldn't have chosen it herself, but with her career on the line, she agrees. It's also made clear that she's to look into the suicide of 15-year-old Daisy Willis, who plunged off a cliff to her death a decade ago. Daisy's body was never found, but suicide was a foregone conclusion. Then, seven years later, Zoe Pearson, another teen, went missing. After the project is announced to Blackwood Bay citizens, the video clips started pouring in. However, to properly look into the disappearances, Alex must travel to Blackwood Bay. She does have faint memories of the town, but now it's as if she's "seeing it through a filter, a distorting prism." As she gathers footage and probes the residents, it's clear that some people don't believe Daisy killed herself and that the incident could be connected to Zoe's disappearance. Alex doesn't quite see how the two could be related, but she does sense an insidious rot lingering under the coastal town's quaint facade. When another teen girl goes missing, the town is looking for someone to blame, and no one is safe, not even Alex. Before she knows it, Alex is no longer a passive observer: She's part of the story. Watson gradually turns up the heat while carefully teasing out wicked secrets that the town would rather keep buried, and Alex, who has her own secrets, makes an appealing, if possibly unreliable, narrator. The darkness runs deep in this skillfully plotted chiller.
