About this listen
Approaching the end of her life, Alice Mayes, notorious caretaker of the anomaly known as The Garden of Sunray, is eager to tie up one last loose end before moving on. The last loose end. For decades, she’s been dreaming of finding someone to share her secret with, someone worthy of her truth, and in 20-year-old Emily Newell, she thinks she finally has.
On a momentous stroll through her massive garden with her young friend, Alice delves back into the past, back to those five horrific, mind-bending days in the summer of 1944, when she was 16, and for the first time in more than 75 years, gives voice to her role in the Nazi prisoner internment camp tragedy that befell the small town of Sunray, Texas. In revealing all she witnessed, confessing all she did, she hopes to pass on a wondrous legacy as well as validate and honor the mysterious man she knew as Karl Wagner.

Sunray Alice
My first "Coming of Age" book and it was a fascinating read. With well developed characters and a very original plot line it was addictive listening. Told in by an old lady in her 90's it is about 5 days when she was a 15 year old that changed and developed her in to the person she became and indeed still is. Cathi Colas's narration was excellent, with superb voices for each character and the emotion she puts into the narrative means this is a brilliant audio book. Highly recommended and well worth it's 5 stars.
I was kindly given a copy of the book by the narrator and leave this honest review.

I loved the narration of Cathi Colas, who brings out the wonder of this story, You feel the friendship and can feel how the Alice grows in this book.
This is set partly in 1940's wartime Texas and partly in the present day. The story of Alice and Karl, and the traumatic events that led up to the creation of the Garden of Sunray.
Alice, an elderly woman, tells a story to Emily, a young friend who helps her care for her garden. This is a poignant tale of Alice's youth, growing up in a small town near a Nazi prison camp after her father was killed in the war.
This book will make you smile and cry, love the unexpected paranormal turns. I wonderful story.
