Good read
It was a good read but I did feel the section where she was tormented went on a bit too long. I had to take a break to another book and come back to finish it as I found it too wearing and a little boring. The rest was great.

Enjoyed this
Really enjoyed this book … it was cleverly constructed snd although I guessed the ending, there were were still twists right up into the end making it interesting. The narrator was very good bringing it to life and spoke in a strangely calm and animated way … I’ll look for more by the sane author & narrator.

Really good listen
I read some of the reviews and almost didn’t purchase, I’m really glad I did. Fab narration and a although a little predictable very cleverly written story. I listen to a lot of this kind of story so bound to follow a certain pattern, so no disappointment here.. good twists and “it’s her” shouts at the book. I really liked it and couldn’t wait to listen to more

Listened to in one day, good read
I enjoyed the story even though it was very predictable and guessed who her mother was very early on and who was doing everything to her and why. But was a nice easy listen.

Brilliant Story
This book was so intriguing from the very beginning.
I did however work it out almost straight away but it didn't spoil it at all as there were other possibilities and I could have been wrong .
I am happy I purchased this book and enjoyed it very much .

Excellent!!
Worth a listen! Twists and turns all over the place. It was easy to like and relate to the characters. Well written and immersive. Well worth a credit.
