About this listen
One hot summer's day, John Cole decides to leave his life behind. When his car breaks down on an isolated road, he goes looking for help and stumbles upon a grand but dilapidated house. Its residents claim to have been waiting for him....
There's Hester, their controlling host; Alex and Claire, siblings full of childlike wonder; the mercurial Eve; Elijah - a faithless former preacher; and chain-smoking Walker, wreathed in smoke and hostility. Who are these people? And what do they intend for John?

wonderfully written.
I will admit I struggled immensely to listen to this book. As much as Perry's writing is exquisite and there is not an author who could match her at present, I just couldn't fall for the characters. I think I will read the book instead of listening to it so I can view it with my own imagination.

Wonderful book with exactly the right narrator.
I loved this book and equally enjoyed the audio version. The narrator captures exactly the right tone.

Wonderful writing, but not engaging enough
This was a frustrating experience. She writes beautifully but I found it hard to engage with any the characters. It left rather a unfulfilled and uneasy taste in my mputh. I wanted to finish it but wasn’t really enjoying it, and yet the story had loads of potential.
