Dare you close your eyes for even a few seconds? One, two, three... Lisa Dale shuts her eyes and counts to 100 during a game of hide-and-seek. When she opens them, her four-year-old daughter, Ella, is gone. Disappeared without a trace. The police, the media and Lisa's family all think they know who snatched Ella. But what if the person who took her isn't a stranger? What if they are convinced they are doing the right thing? And what if Lisa's little girl is in danger of disappearing forever?

Introducing Audible's Thriller of the Year: Silent Child by Sarah A. Denzil, performed by Joanne Froggatt. In the summer of 2006, Emma Price watched helplessly as her six-year-old son's red coat was fished out of the River Ouse.

Ten years later Emma has finally rediscovered the joy in life...until Aiden returns.

When a paragraph in an evening newspaper reveals a decades-old tragedy, most readers barely give it a glance. But for three strangers, it's impossible to ignore. For one woman it's a reminder of the worst thing that ever happened to her. For another it's the dangerous possibility that her darkest secret is about to be discovered. And for a third, a journalist, it's the first clue in a hunt to uncover the truth. The Child's story will be told.

Engaging, but...
This was an engaging story, performed well by the reader (although her North American accent has an obvious 'tell' I found distracting). I did find the ending a bit rushed and too pat and implausible. Still worth the listen, but not quite up to the race reviews, in my opinion.

A then and now story with many apologies
At some point I stopped counting the number of times the phrase "I'm so, so sorry" was used. Nicola, the central character of the story seems to want to apologise for everything that happened to her family starting with her 90 years old grandmother's youth to this day. At some point I simply got fed up with her constantly "doing the right thing" and then apologising for it. I did finish the book even though about half way through I had more or less figured out who had done what to whom. Perhaps small towns in the north of England may still be stuck somewhere in the 1950's but in today's world, the past experiences of women would not carry shame into the present. It is an averagely readable story as long as you can put up with the whiny apologetic tone.

I had to keep listening despite its emotional content, there was resolution in its finish. shame the sound levels weren't great at times and I had to have the volume louder than was needed so I didn't miss any of the quieter parts of the story

The excellent narration made a bleak story compelling.
A rather bleak tale, but excellently narrated by Sarah Durham, who charged such emotion into the narrative it was compelling listening. A voice I could listen to for hours. Well done bringing this story to life.
