About this listen

C.S. Barnes' Intention is set to be one of 2019's stand-out debuts. A dark and compelling psychological thriller, it will appeal to fans of authors like Lisa Jewell, S. E. Lynes and Theresa Driscoll.

When 22-year-old Gillian Thompson returns from university for the summer, it is apparent there is tension at home. An irritant to her father and a concern to her mother, Gillian’s home life is less than ideal.

Geraldine, Gillian’s mother, has suffered abuse from Joe for years. However, it is not until Joe dies that the family dynamic shifts and Gillian starts out on her own dark journey.

When Gillian meets Paul and Daniel she starts to become the person she always knew she was. And as people around her start dying Gillian faces scrutiny from her mother. But are the deaths accidents, or is something more sinister at work?

The start strong was encouraging but after a dramatic incident the rest of the book lacked direction and was just continuous ramblings from the main character. The rest of the story just didn’t make any sense. A real shame.
