About this listen

In 2006, three-year-old Phoebe Piper went missing. Despite massive publicity, no trace of her was ever found. Seven years later, Molly Jackson, aged 10, finds her great uncle Dan dead in his bed.

Molly remembers nothing of her early years, but she's been sure for ages that she is Phoebe. Now, finally, she has proof. Dan's death brings his sister Janice back to Norfolk where she's reunited with Molly's mother Suze, the daughter she gave up for adoption decades earlier. Janice discovers that a former lover, Joe Vincent, lives nearby.

As she is drawn back into the past, Janice begins to wonder if Dan's death and Joe's reputation as a reclusive acid casualty are quite what they appear... And then Molly disappears.

This story was just very slow to get going and never really got off the ground for me I’m afraid. The plot twists were all clearly signposted and I was waiting for another one at the end, but it never came. Not one of my favourite listens.

Very easy to get in to and the story rolled along at a good pace - not always going where you expected, showing how things can get so mixed up and misconstrued. Believable characters - some real prog rock/hippy throwbacks. Good narrative on the way things were back then and the way they must seem to the younger generation now.

Gripping and unusual story.

This just didn’t grip me, I kept going but it lacks the need to finish it

Wrong girl title doesn’t suit this book

I could not get on with this audiobook. The narrator was very stilted, pausing all the time.
The characters were all odious and I didn’t care what happened to them. The 10 year old girl was written as though she was 5 and so did not work for me.
Others seem to enjoy it but I could wait for it to finish.

Not for me
