A mystery on two levels.

This was a very enjoyable story with more than one mystery. Solve one and you still have serious stuff to twist your mind around. Shelia
Lowes very descriptive writing takes you right into the confusing world of our heroine, as she “comes to” and realises that she has amnesia and can’t even remember who she is! As the story unfolds I really was swept along with her frustrations and fears. By the end I felt this would make an excellent start to a series in a political thriller mode, with some of the secondary characters as the leads. The first book of Ms Lowe but definitely not the last!

mystery

Aria McKenna did a great job of narration for this mystery.

this book is full of suspense from the start. The twists and turns, so intrigue.
so much more intrigue to deal with.

This listen is propelled by the mystery of the amnesia victim

It's so crazy we couldn't make it up.

A woman wakes up on a train, not knowing where she is. She can't remember where she was going, where she came from, who she is. Not even her name. In a panic, she leaves at the first station, not knowing what to do or where to go...
The dramatic opening to What She Saw, and the continuing desperate search for an identity and some explanation as to why she has lost her memories so completely, is well written, starkly conveying the terror of her situation and the unknown reasons for the lingering fears she felt. Her naked emotion is visceral, feeling very real (if, sometimes, rather misguided in her trust issues, given her more blatant, and courageous, attempts to learn about herself). The reader is caught in her dilemma, the need to know more about her urgent. And the discovery of the truth of her past and present is also immaginative, almost plausible. But, sadly, the final denouement felt rushed and, dare I say it? Yes - silly. Like a totally different story slapped onto the end to give some dramatic resolution. Very disappointing.

Narrator Aria McKenna gives it her all, emotion dripping from every sentence, especially in the earlier sequences. And she is good. Her delivery is clear,with good intonation and textual understanding. If anything, she is overly dramatic, her voice sinking low then suddenly crying out piercingly loudly in the next phrase or sentence. It did become, for this reader, too distracting to properly listen to what was actually being said. But after the earlier sequences, this settled down - still emotionally invested but without the hysterical vocal input. This was further assisted by increasing the playback speed to 1.25, giving the narration a little more cohesion without losing any of the clarity of drama. The performance, after that initial hiccough, was excellent, with good character voicings throughout, and the only irritation then being that, although there were often significant pauses between phrases in sentences, there was a similar lack of time between changes of scenes within chapters. Overall, though, she gave a very good narration.

I was fortunate in being freely gifted a complimentary copy of What She Saw, at my request, by the rights holder, via Audiobook Boom. Thank you. Sheila Lowe is a talented writer and her ability to get inside a character and draw in her reader is clearly demonstrated in this novel. It is mysterious, compelling and exciting. It is just unfortunate that the final chapters were not better thought out to continue the reality felt in the majority of the book.

Great Thriller

I really enjoyed this book, I wondered why I remembered parts of it, and then realised that I had also read the Kindle version, even knowing I had already read the book, it didnt stop my enjoyment of listening to the story again.

Definately worth a listen if you enjoy your thrillers

I was given this book in exchange for an honest review
