Summary
The unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Forgive Me, a compelling story of a daughter uncovering her mother’s secret past from the No. 1 bestselling author, Lesley Pearse. Read by the actress Alison Dowling.
Cheltenham, 1991, when Eva Patterson returns home from work one day, a devastating scene awaits her. Her mother, Flora, lies dead in the bath. Beside her is a note saying only: “Forgive Me”. Eva is shocked to find out that her mother was once a successful artist back in the 1960s.
When she visits her mother’s old studio, she finds a collection of Flora’s paintings and diaries. Searching for answers, Eva encounters a psychic who mysteriously warns her to beware of a “sleeping serpent”, which she soon discovers refers to a shocking crime in Flora’s past. Will discovering the truth destroy Eva’s belief in everything she holds dear?

You couldn’t make it up!!
A really wonderful story with lots of unexpected events. A grown up fairy story, but a little too much happening in last quarter. But an easy listen

Lovely audiobook
I was not sure I would enjoy this book when it started but it was a really good audiobook and the narrator was excellent. Well worth listening to.

Lesley Pearse at her best.with Forgive Me
A sad story to start with and I thought I had made a mistake buying it. But after 3 minutes I was into the story and could not stop listening. A wonderfully woven story with surprises in store. Almost a feeling of a thriller and I wanted to know what was going to happen next. Good I had lots of sewing to do so had a good excuse to listen. Am now starting from the beginning again. I want to hear the bits that I missed last time. Really recommend this book.

Not for me
I usually enjoy Lesley Pearses books, the story of the mothers life was good. But I found the main character too slushy & a bit sickly to be honest! I don't know if it was made worse by the narrator who sounded childlike at times. Maybe just not to my taste!

First audible book
I found this far fetched and soppy, not my type of book. The narraters voice was a bit nasally and irritating at times. But, for sitting in the garden in this glorious sun doily embroidery , it was ok and in a funny way, enjoyable.

Enjoyable for a womens book!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I dont usually read womens books (despite being a woman) but I got this one for holiday and enjoyed it enough to recommend it. It has pleasant charecters and a good narrator and alot more intruige than I would have expected from this genre. Buy it!

good read
I enjoyed the story with all the details of Eva and how she tries to find out about her past.
The description of all the places she visits are vivid and real. Good story, spanning decades that keeps you intrigued.

Forgive me for being entertained ..
What did you like most about Forgive Me?
I like the fact that the book are filled with drama without being 'Barbara Cartland'
What was one of the most memorable moments of Forgive Me?
It is difficult picking out a memorable moment as there are so many but Eva finding out about her real mother is one of them :-)
Which scene did you most enjoy?
While I enjoyed the whole book. I did feel pleased about Eva finding back to herself in Italy.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes
Any additional comments?
I very much enjoy the writings of Lesley Pearse. I like the resemblance to 'real life' where not everything has a happy ending.

Enjoyable mystery
Eva is the first to find her mother when she commits suicide leaving a short note saying 'forgive me'. Her mothers death leads to other revelations and sets Eva on a path to discover more about a mother that she never really knew. It's an enjoyable mystery.
