Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the number one bestselling author of Our Little Cruelties and Skin Deep.

Sally Diamond cannot understand why what she did was so strange. She was only doing what her father told her to do, to put him out with the rubbish when he died.

Now Sally is the centre of attention, not only from the hungry media and worried police, but also a sinister voice from a past she has no memory of. As she begins to discover the horrors of her childhood, recluse Sally steps into the world for the first time, making new friends, finding independence, and learning that people don't always mean what they say.

But when messages start arriving from a stranger who knows far more about her past than she knows herself, Sally's life will be thrown into chaos once again...

Superb

Skillful narration of a captivating story. I'm a bit bereft now it is finished, though I raced through it, unable to stop. It was my first Liz Nugent book, but won't be my last.

Couldn't stop listening

I loved this so much, listened to it in just over a day. The story is brilliant, and the narration is spot on - the delivery of both protagonists fits brilliantly with their story and although may be unusual at first, you soon come to realise how important it is to have that representation for the characters. One of the best books I've listened to in years.

Wow

Captivating story line… Liz Nugent has some imagination. Closer to the truth than we’d like to believe for some people.
