About this listen

I’ll do anything to protect my daughter....

When I pick my beloved daughter Poppy up from school one afternoon, my mind races when I see the little girl holding Poppy’s hand. With the same heart-shaped face, long brown hair, and dark eyes, the two girls look identical. In fact, they look like sisters.

Is the secret I’ve been holding on to for so long about to be revealed?

That night, I cuddle Poppy even harder, desperately trying to decide what to do. And then my husband’s phone vibrates. A message. And then another. And another. All from a number I don’t recognize.

Is someone going to tell my husband what I did? Could I be about to lose everything I have worked so hard to protect?

But I’ve spent so long hiding the truth, I never stopped to wonder if I was the only liar in the family.... The only thing I’m sure of is that nobody is going to take my child away from me.

If you can’t get enough of addictive psychological thrillers like Gone Girl, The Wife Between Us, and The Marriage, you’ll love The Liar’s Child. With nail-biting suspense and an ending that will make your heart pound.

The story was ok and certainly had twists and turns but some of those seems to be based on the stupidity of the characters. I found myself shouting at them when the refused to seemingly join the obvious dots and not seeing what was string them in the face which was was pretty annoying.
Overall could have been a lot better
Liked the narrator though.
Definitely too drawn out. Better initial editing required

A little grating

I loved this story and the narrater brought it to life in more ways than one. Although I thought I knew how it was going to end, I was surprised and did not guess right. Highly recommend.

Great story line with twists and suspense.

Don’t usually bother with reviews but this one irritated me somewhat so had to say something! The story isn’t too bad if a little predictable but my word the author has an annoying tendency to over use some physical actions! The repetition of people eyeing each other warily, touching their faces/raking hands through hair/pinching the bridge of their noses started to drive me nuts! Narrator is good though. perhaps I’m just getting fussy in my old age but the repetition put me off any other titles from this author, for now at least.

Repetitive but not a bad story

Could have been a good story, but there was far too much detailed, in depth, medical jargon and in depth procedures, some of which really had no bearing on the story, the rest could have just been simplified., the storyline was quite detailed anyway and needed concentration which I kept loosing with all the medical info, had to keep going back to remind myself of the actual storyline and keep following it.

Probably great if you are in the medical profession, not so if not.

Too much medical jargon
