Therapy was meant to solve her problems, not make them worse...

Twenty-year-old Dani is desperate to overcome her demons, leave her dead-end job and return to her hard-won place at university. Using her limited earnings, she decides to start seeing a psychotherapist.

Richard Goode is educated, sophisticated and worldly-everything Dani aspires to be. As he intuitively unpicks her self-loathing, Dani assumes the fantasies she's developing about him live only in her head. That is, until things take a shocking turn...

Descending into a maelstrom of twisted desire, manipulation and mistrust, the power struggle between Dani and Richard escalates until she's forced to make a decision she never would have anticipated.

Fifty Minutes is a propulsive and bold debut that marks Carla Jenkins as a vital new voice in fiction.©2024 Carla Jenkins (P)2024 Orion Publishing Group Limited Psychological Thriller & Suspense Exciting Fiction

Dani Drew me in from the off. Contrasts and contradictions in a character you can't help but love. The story is wonderfully crafted and unfolds through a challenging narrative of self doubt and hope pitched against manipulation control. Have listened to it three times now and find more layers every time

unflinching and endearing, a celebration of endless determination and hope

A real page turner, however the voice was somewhat lacking and made little effect on the male character.
