About this listen

Can you ever escape the past?

Stella is a teacher in a secondary school in the village of West Compton, North Yorkshire. She and her partner Wade appear to have the perfect life, but after receiving a series of threatening letters, her life takes a sinister turn.

Stella is forced to examine her past to find out who is behind the letters. All evidence points to a man with whom she had a one-night stand.

Deciding to confront him, Stella soon discovers he is not the one responsible and must delve deeper into her past.

After a visit to her estranged alcoholic mother, Stella is forced to look even closer to home.

Meanwhile, the threats escalate. But who is behind the campaign of hate and why? Stella is about to find out …

I couldn't stop listening.
The story brought back memories of school day and bullying. An ending to a story that was not predictable. A fantastic audio book. Thank you.

At first I thought this was slow, took a while to get into it, the narrator did the best she could with a downcast text. It picks up pace and has a twist at the end. A good one to listen to in the background of doing something else.

A good story, bit slow but gets there in the end.

No. The narration in this book is off putting. Every sentence is said in a climatic fashion, full of angst and build up which just sounds silly when she is simply making a cup of tea!
I couldn't finish it. It was horrible on my ears.

Dramatic angst in every sentence drove me mad!!
