About this listen

AU TEST

In the struggle between warring parents, who will protect the child?

Garry Hartshorn and Softie Monaghan were never love's young dream. Not even on their wedding day.

Softie was sophisticated, a career woman, who owned a nice apartment overlooking St Kilda Beach. Garry had a few rough edges, plus one failed marriage and an assortment of jobs under his belt. But Softie's body clock was ticking, and Garry wanted children....

So they got married and produced the only thing they ever had in common: Matilda.

Now, two years later, their golden-haired child is at the centre of a bitter divorce and custody battle. Both parents insist that her well-being is the only thing they care about. Yet, in truth, Matilda was always the one most likely to become lost.

Great story highlighting the issues of family court. This is set in Australia as are the authors other books giving rise to Aus colloquial sayings which is interesting to UK listeners. The narration is very good but I agree with other listeners - the use of 'he said, she said' throughout is a bit irritating but the tale, nonetheless is quite sad for families going through a break up. Good overall, recommended for an engrossing 'need to find out what happened' story!

Good story so I persevered but listening to the constant he said and I said dialogue was extremely hard going it puts me off wanting to listen to anything else by this author

This book took a bit of time to get going, initially I thought I was reading the wrong book! But it all came together beautifully.

I enjoy Caroline Overingtons books, the subject is always thought provoking. I enjoy the narration too.

This is a very well written story about 2 parents and a 2 year old child. If you know the Family Courts either in the UK or Australia this is a book for you.

Gripping right to the end . .
