À propos de cet audio

Edie Burchill and her mother have never been close, but when a long lost letter arrives with the return address of Milderhurst Castle, Kent, printed on its envelope, Edie begins to suspect that her mother’s emotional distance masks an old secret. Evacuated from London as a 13-year-old girl, Edie’s mother is chosen by the mysterious Juniper Blythe, and taken to live at Milderhurst Castle with the Blythe family.

Fifty years later, Edie too is drawn to Milderhurst and the eccentric Sisters Blythe. Old ladies now, the three still live together, the twins nursing Juniper, whose abandonment by her fiancé in 1941 plunged her into madness. Inside the decaying castle, Edie begins to unravel her mother’s past. But there are other secrets hidden in the stones of Milderhurst Castle, and Edie is about to learn more than she expected. The truth of what happened in the distant hours has been waiting a long time for someone to find it.

I love listening to books as I drive, walk etc. This book had so many twists and turns. When I thought I had figured out what happened there would be a twist that I didn’t see coming. I will be listening to all of her books.

A wonderful, engaging story, beautifully performed. I highly recommend this audio book. Time well spent.

Thorough enjoyable!

Back and forth over several timelines, each at much the same bucolic pace, as every possible detail of the lives of many characters are recounted and the minutia of settings described - resulting in the initiation of many naps. The plotting was sufficiently complex and the poignancy of the relationships held me to the end, however. The narration is solid, though the Australian sounds seeping through the British dialects were distracting at first.

I loved this book. The words were exquisite and the story a tale woven like a basket until the last lat was put in place. I was worried about its length and being bored, but I shouldn't have been. It was engaging the whole way along.

Storytelling at its finest
