Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
From the number one bestselling author of Our Little Cruelties and Skin Deep.
Sally Diamond cannot understand why what she did was so strange. She was only doing what her father told her to do, to put him out with the rubbish when he died.
Now Sally is the centre of attention, not only from the hungry media and worried police, but also a sinister voice from a past she has no memory of. As she begins to discover the horrors of her childhood, recluse Sally steps into the world for the first time, making new friends, finding independence, and learning that people don't always mean what they say.
But when messages start arriving from a stranger who knows far more about her past than she knows herself, Sally's life will be thrown into chaos once again...

Superb
Skillful narration of a captivating story. I'm a bit bereft now it is finished, though I raced through it, unable to stop. It was my first Liz Nugent book, but won't be my last.

A well written story about paedophilia and trauma.
It's a sad and dark story about peadophilia and trauma. I couldn't stop listening though, it's so well written. And the narration is excellent.
Why I gave the story-part 4 stars is because I didn't like the ending at all. Will it be a sequel? The story really need a satisfactory ending.

Devastating storyline but quite addictive
What a rollercoaster!. It was well written, but a lot of the time, it was hard to listen to. The subject matter was so heartbreaking and sad. Sally was narrated well, but at the same time, the monotone voice, which portrayed her character in audio, was at times hard to listen to. I'd recommend this book but only if you can bare really tough storylines.

Very disturbing
This is a great story. I genuinely found a couple of the characters the most unpleasant I’ve ever come across. Well performed. Really sad when I finished it.

Devastatingly brilliant
Utterly fantastic, really well written and narrated, and draws you in completely. The subject matter is difficult, but it’s so well put together that you follow the journey of the characters with emotion and understanding. One of my top books of the year, it was equal parts brilliant and devastating. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend
This was an outstanding book. I’m not generally a fan of this sub-genre - I won’t say too much about this so as not to spoil Sally Diamond’s back story - however, this book really was both well written, well narrated and had an incredible story.

A gripping and superbly told story of deceit and emotional turmoil.
Rarely does such a story captivate and move me. It was narrated so well from the perspective of the characters and I was transported to their lives. I would highly recommend this book as an audible version as the telling was so superb.
