About this listen
Remember the person you sat next to on your first day at school? Still your best friend? Or disappeared from your life for good?
Some friendships fizzle out. Rachel and Clara promised theirs would last for ever.
They met when Rachel was the new girl in class and Clara was the friend everyone wanted. Now in their late twenties Rachel has everything while Clara's life is spiralling further out of control. Then Clara vanishes.
Imagine discovering something about your oldest friend that forces you to question everything you've shared together. The truth is always there. But only if you choose to see it.

What did you like most about Precious Thing?
The sense of mystery a few the character development as the story unravelled.Who was your favorite character and why?
Rachel. Very interesting character. Felt she was a good strong and well developed personality but always felt there was a lot more to come.Have you listened to any of Penelope Rawlins’s other performances? How does this one compare?
no this was first of her performances I have listened to. It was excellent, and I would like to read more.Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
the ending was a little unbelievable. It made me neither laugh nor cry, only to think that it was a little too much.Any additional comments?
the book was very gripping, and I couldn't put it down. The development of the characters was amazing. Since finishing it, it has me thinking about the 2 main characters and now this character development was integral to the plot. The title confused me, until the very last chapter. 'Don't believe a word she says'....I see now why this was important, and who it referred to. A great story.Enjoyable read
