About this listen

Her family is built on secrets and lies. Can she confront the truth she’s been running from for years?

Fifteen years ago, Berta fled from Madrid to London to escape the controlling mother who made her childhood a living nightmare. Now, following her mother’s death, she is forced to return and face the ghosts of her unhappy past.

But it is not long before she discovers that her own bleak memories are nothing compared to the dark deception lurking in her family. How did her sister’s loveless marriage really end? And is the loyal housekeeper really hiding the truth about the strange disappearance of Berta’s father?

As she searches for facts among the fiction, Berta finds a handful of letters that reveal a story more twisted than she could ever have imagined. And as she starts piecing together the sinister family mysteries that have always plagued her, it soon becomes clear that these dangerous secrets are not confined to the past....

Unable to put this book down it was an incredible

Incredible Story and the narrative was brilliant even if I did struggle with some of the names. I wasn't expecting the complexity of the story but found I was unable to put it down.

Terrible narration

I persevered as long as I could as I thought the storyline sounded promising, but the narration was so stilted that I just couldn’t bear it. I returned this. Awful!
