About this listen

Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Daughter by Jane Shemilt, read by Sophie Aldred.

I still don't know why we had to check. Did we really think you would be there, curled up and sleeping on the stage? That we would put our arms round you, and take you home?

Naomi has vanished, leaving her family broken and her mother Jenny desperately searching for answers. But the traces fifteen-year-old Naomi left behind reveal a very different girl to the one Jenny thought she'd raised. And the more she looks the more she learns that everyone she trusted has been keeping secrets. But will discovering the real Naomi help to find her?

Loved the story but found the voice of the narrator really spoiled it for me. She failed to give the story any depth of emotion & sounded far too young for the character of a mid 40's professional mother of 3.....& her South African accent was rubbish! Shame as it made it too annoying to finish listening. Got part way through & returned it - bought the book to read it myself instead!

Good story but didn't like the audio version

Really enjoyed this was intense in places wished for different ending as any mother would

couldn't put it down

I found this really gripping - we sometimes think having a good job makes us great parents but lack of time can leave you seriously lacking. This book plausibly plays out the gaps caused by a fast paced world of busy parents and busier children. A must read/listen whether you think you're getting it right or wrong.

Well read and engaging. A story that is impossible to pause

Such a gripping story, full of intrigue and exciting pages , how families can be so close yet know nothing of what is going on within.
Have really enjoyed it.
