About this listen

From the best-selling author of While My Eyes Were Closed comes a powerful, emotional novel about how far we can trust those closest to us.

You can run from the past, but you can't always stop it catching up with you....

Alison is a marriage mender. Her job is to help couples who fear they have reached the end of the road. So when her husband's ex, Lydia, arrives on the doorstep demanding to see her son, Alison thinks she can handle it. But what Alison doesn't realise is that Lydia is the one person who has the ability to destroy their happy family. And sometimes the cracks run too deep to ever be repaired....

Really enjoyable

Enjoyable, sad, happy, excellent narration and many likeable characters I could care about, right up until the final “twist” which I felt was completely unbelievable. There were some parts which I felt were unnecessary but neither of these really spoilt the larger story.

Good storyline

Characters felt real
The changes to therapist sessions effective and amusing
The only downside for me was the ‘real’ mother revelation.
It was well read and enjoyable throughout .
