About this listen

Recovering from the recent tragedy of his wife's death in a cliff fall, Tony Sheridan goes to stay with his sister-in-law, Lucy, and her husband at their new home - Otherways - a strange circular, moated house. Disturbed by memories of his wife and a growing attraction to Lucy, Sheridan is also troubled by weird and vivid dreams. And as he and Lucy embark on a secret and passionate affair, Sheridan begins uncovering the truth about Otherways.

Just excellent

Robert Goddard is truly a master story teller. His books don’t seem to age. The clever way he weaves elements of History into his narrative, makes the story completely believable and enthralling. The supernatural elements in this story did not put me off / even those were totally believable.
I’ve never been disappointed by his stories and can listen to them more than once, which pleasure!

Kitchen is made for this!

Not Goddard ‘ s best I think but still a very strong plot and narrative. Michael kitchen ‘s performance is excellent.

Really good story

I think Michael Kitchen is the very best narrator for Robert Goddard books.
This was a really enjoyable listen, as I do like RG storytelling

Poor Editing

I so wanted award 5 stars for this book but, what let down was the poorly clipped editing; on a number of occasions which, I found distracting.

Definitely worth a listen

Lots of twists and turns, I love Michael Kitchen’s narration. There were times that I felt it was a bit slow, but overall I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Very poorly edited

I am halfway through what is so far an intriguing story completely ruined by poor editing. Several times now the story has been cut short, I've no idea how much Ive missed. It is probably only seconds but it's very distracting.

Complex shenanigans...

...with fascinating and unexpected threads to follow on the way to an oddly believable conclusion

Fascinating story

For me it was less to do with the paranormal and more about the complexities of the human psyche. The twists and plots in the other threads of the tale were intriguing and at times gripping. I could have throttled a few characters at times, which is always a sign of being engrossed🤨

Poor audio quality

A great story, beautifully narrated by Michael Kitchen, but let down by a recording that skips in several places (some critical for the plot). I downloaded it to my device a couple of times just to make sure, but it made no difference.
