About this listen

Take an ordinary, well-off family like the Prices. Watch what happens when one Sunday, 17-year-old Hannah disappears without a trace. See how the family rallies when a ransom note demands half a million pounds for Hannah's safe return. But it's when Hannah comes home that the story really begins.

Now observe what happens to a family when they lose their house, their status, all their wealth. Note how they disintegrate under the pressures of guilt and poverty and are forced to confront their true selves. And, finally, wait to hear about Hannah, who has the most shocking surprise in store of all.

Listeners are advised this audiobook includes offensive language and attitudes that are reflective of the period in which the fictional novel is set.

Critic reviews

'Moggach's observations ... are so vivid and so true that you can forget that this is fiction. And yet this is artful fiction indeed ... compelling.' (The Times)
'Provocative, enthralling, bang up-to-the-minute, Seesaw is guaranteed to be grabbed by friends and families if, for one instant, you let it out of your sight ... truly Moggach gets better and better.' (Daily Mail)

Most relevant
An unusual story, but somehow compelling. I can't really believe that Hannah's parents wouldn't just have told the police everything to begin with, but will suspend disbelief, because it resulted in a good story.

Great story
