Summary

Stan Weir is mourning a tragic loss when he meets a mysterious nine-year-old girl, who claims to be the reincarnated spirit of his late wife. Marcy Keef is a single mother trying to make ends meet when her daughter Erin starts describing 'past life memories'. Neither wants to believe Erin, but as violent secrets are revealed, the truth becomes harder to deny.

With echoes of Stephen King, Second Skin is a propulsive thriller about grief, guilt and truths better left unknown.

Great little listen

The story is a tragic one in many ways but it doesn't leave you feeling hopeless. It's a great look into how flawed we are but how those sometimes terrible parts of us don't make us terrible as a whole. The richness of the characters is what I enjoyed most about this book. Even though it isn't very long you get a good sense off everyone. The end leaves you with enough to imagine something better is coming...

A story with a difference

A really gripping storyline and superbly narrated. The only negative being that one was left in the air by the ending.

1st three quarters very good,disappointing end

The first three quarters were very good,disappointing ending. The idea was good and original, but I felt like the author had painted herself into a corner, and hadn't planned the ending in advance. Some of the things that happened aren't likely, given the ending and the age of the characters.

An easy listen

After trawling through the included titles I tried a few and turned them off after 5 mins. I enjoyed this from start to finish and it’s wasn’t too long.

Twice

It was so good, I read it twice. Well listened twice. A good old yarn. The end is cringe worthy.
