About this listen

Newlywed Jade Westmore has finally found her forever in husband Wells, a charming, successful, and recently divorced architect—only there’s one caveat: behind the gates of their elysian estate, hidden from street view in the caretaker’s cottage … lives Wells’s first wife, Sylvie.

Three years ago, the original Mrs. Westmore suffered a nervous breakdown—and hasn’t uttered a sound since. Not a physician, psychologist, or world-renown specialist has been able to elicit so much as a word from the silent woman … until now.

On an ordinary Tuesday while Wells was away—despite instructions to never disturb the fragile woman—Jade visited her isolated predecessor bearing a peace offering: a bouquet of white lilies. Only she wasn’t expecting Sylvie to have something for her as well: a slip of torn notebook paper with a single word scrawled in shaky black ink.

That word? Run.

From the start I thought I'd struggle to carry on with it. I'd like to say it got better but it didn't. I don't like giving bad reviews and whilst it wasn't a bad book it was just average. It was predictable and at times not believable or relatable in any way which is a shame. Just an easy listen and if you zone out you can easily get back into it without rewinding. Didn't like the narrator that much. Dissapointing

Not gripped
