"Da Caroline og Francis får et tilbud om at bytte bolig, slår de til med det samme ved udsigten til en uges ferie væk hjemmefra. Efter et par hårde år er de stadig i fuld gang med at genfinde hinanden som par.
Da de ankommer, viser det sig, at huset er halvtomt og upersonligt – det er svært at forestille sig, hvilket menneske der bor der. Men så begynder Caroline langsomt at afdække visse livstegn – spor fra hendes liv. Blomsterne på badeværelset og musikken i anlægget virker måske nok uskyldige i hendes mands øjne, men for hende er de alt andet end det. Det lader til, at den person, de har byttet bolig med, er én, hun plejede at kende særdeles godt.
Og nu er den person ovenikøbet i hendes eget hjem ..."
"Random House presents the audiobook edition of The House Swap by Rebecca Fleet, read by Sian Brooke, Adam James, Josh Dylan and Kirsty Dillon.
‘No one lives this way unless they want to hide something.’
When Caroline and Francis receive an offer to house swap, they jump at the chance for a week away from home. After the difficulties of the past few years, they’ve worked hard to rebuild their marriage for their son’s sake; now they want to reconnect as a couple.
On arrival, they find a house that is stark and sinister in its emptiness – it’s hard to imagine what kind of person lives here. Then, gradually, Caroline begins to uncover some signs of life – signs of her life. The flowers in the bathroom or the music in the CD player might seem innocent to her husband but to her they are anything but. It seems the person they have swapped with is someone she used to know; someone she’s desperate to leave in her past.
But that person is now in her home – and they want to make sure she’ll never forget . . .
