About this listen

‘A perfect contradiction, existing in the shades of grey that real life is so often painted in . . . A story that’s as furious as it is tender’ Emily Henry

‘A roar of rage, a pacy page-turner, I loved it with all my broken heart. Read it. You’ll love it’ Marian Keyes

Nessa: The Seeker

Jo: The Protector

Harriett: The Punisher

With newfound powers the time has come to take matters into their own hands…

Widowed Nessa lives alone in her house near the ocean. In the quiet hours, she hears voices belonging to the dead – who will only speak to her.

On the cusp of fifty Harriett’s marriage and career imploded, but her life is far from over – in fact, she’s undergone a stunning metamorphosis.

Jo spent years at war with her body. The rage that arrived with menopause felt like the last straw – until she discovers she’s able to channel it.

Guided by voices only Nessa can hear, the trio discover the abandoned body of a teenage girl. The police have written off the victim. But the women have not. Their own investigations lead to more bodies, and a world of wealth where the rules don’t apply – and the realisation that laws are designed to protect villains, not the vulnerable.

Now three women will avenge the innocent and punish the guilty. IT’S TIME.

Critic reviews

‘A roar of rage, a pacy page-turner, I loved it with all my broken heart. Read it. You’ll love it’ Marian Keyes

‘I loved this wild mystery about a group of midlife women who have just about had enough. I couldn't put it down’ Erin Kelly

The Change is a proper smash-the-patriarchy read with tension and a compelling plot to boot. It gave me the same energy as Lessons in Chemistry, and I take my hat off to Harriett The Punisher and will be taking some life lessons from her. Loved it’ Harriet Tyce

‘Part crime thriller, part extended howl of pure rage, The Change takes a scalpel to the cancer of misogyny that infects every cell of western culture, with biting wit and a burning, righteous anger that never lets up. Powerful and original’ Tammy Cohen

‘A brilliant book. Thrilling, fast paced and original. I couldn’t stop reading’ Sarah Morgan

‘With a propulsive plot and characters that roar off the page, this is a novel that’s unafraid to take on societal misogyny while being satirical and even funny at the same time’ Guardian

‘[A] bewitching and satisfying mystery and thriller . . . A compelling read’ The Independent

‘I loved this book, in particular its three powerful independent no-nonsense female protagonists . . . A feminist thriller for our times’ Nina Pottell, Prima

‘A revenge fantasy and feminist fist-pump – and a balm for trying times’ Grazia

‘An addictive, fast-paced crime novel like nothing you’ve ever read before’ Red magazine

The fact that the amazing January Lavoy narrated this, made it ten times better, but what a great story. I fell in love with the women in this story, and I have written down so many great quotes.

A very cleverly written story that draws on the history of witchcraft and drops it in throughout. I really loved the characters, especially Harriet. I'm going to tend to my garden this afternoon!

Great story and brilliant characters
