About this listen

Kit Mason has lived a life of unimaginable pain. An ex-prostitute, she has fled the clutches of an abusive pimp and now finds herself living hand to mouth in a new city, without anyone to help her.

Frances Thornton seems to be living the perfect life. A lawyer from a privileged background, her perfect façade hides the painful secrets that still haunt her.

Brought together by their attempts to conquer their addictions in an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, the two women strike up an unlikely friendship.

But can they find strength in each other - or will the demons of their past catch up with them?

Refreshing and surprisingly inspiring

I found this book in the Crime/thriller section not sure what its doing there. I do not think the cover or title reflect the story.However I found this story surprisingly intriguing and inspiring. The author addresses complex social subjects with sensitivity and insight. I particularly enjoyed the feminist undertones. Most of all I am very impressed that the typical clinched ending was avoided.I found this book genuinely inspiring.

Compelling

After devouring the Kim Stone series I was keen to try anything else by Angela Marsons and was not disappointed although it is not something I would have picked without the previous connection. I felt one of the players was a bit hard on Kit given the circumstances but otherwise it was a totally compelling story I could stop listening too.

Absolute fantastic

I’m so greatful I found this amazing talented author. I’ve already bought her second stand alone novel and then intend to start her very much proclaimed detective series
It had been a long time since I’ve been so enthralled by a book that I’ve stayed up all night to finish it. It was exciting,shocking and funny all rolled into one and the surprises kept coming right up to the very last word.
Don’t miss this one, but it immediately

Disappointing

i enjoyed this book. It was a nice story, nothing nail biting and exciting but very enjoyable. Narrator was really good. The problem for me was I thought I still had loads to listen to when the book ended. I checked I had not missed chapters but no I had heard them all. Nothing came together at the end. I was left high and dry with no idea of the outcome of the characters. Feeling cheated after enjoying what had been written I would not recommend this book. maybe the author will finish it one day.

A great book. I couldn’t put it down.

At the beginning I wasn’t sure, as this is not my normal topic of books. However I do like the way This author writes, so I thought I would give it a go. I was NOT disappointed. It kept me engaged and gripped all the way through. Fantastic book.
