About this listen
Shy and gawky, Ana has always daydreamed about living the life of her exotic half-sister Bee, a pop singer who had a number one hit single before she inexplicably vanished from the celebrity scene.
When Bee turns up dead, Ana is dispatched to the big city to clear out her apartment. Instantly seduced by the second-hand glamour of Bee's baubles, bangles, and bottles of Pierre-Jouet, Ana takes up with Bee's wild club-hopping cronies.
News of a missing cat and a remote country cottage soon convince Ana that her sister was leading a secret life. Now, she's is on a mission to discover what really happened to Bee Bearhorn, the one-hit wonder - and what is about to happen to the unremarkable Ana Wills.

Camille Prescott has it all. A doting husband, two children, a charming home in a seaside enclave, and a beautiful, fixed smile that exudes normalcy.

Story
Ten years ago he killed my son. Today I married him. Ten years ago my darling son Jesse was murdered and our perfect family was destroyed. My strong, handsome boy, so full of life, became a memory, a photo I carried with me everywhere. But today I’m finally close to finding happiness again. My ash-blonde hair has been curled into ringlets. Carefully placed white flowers frame my delicate features. The small, drab chapel has been prettied up with white satin, and there are tiny red hearts scattered on the small table where I will soon sign the register with my new husband.

Compelling story and I couldn’t stop listening. The performance, however, was fabulous! All the accents were just amazing. The tone and phrasing sounded like I was listening to great actors. Highly recommend this recording!

Not as gripping as Lisa’s other books
Lisa has written some pretty incredible books, a favourite of mine being Then She Was Gone. The suspense and plot twists just weren’t there for me with this one. Just my personal opinion, others might be really into the story. It wasn’t a bad story in any way, just not the usual level of page-turning thriller that I’m used to from Lisa. I also want to mention that I really didn’t appreciate the use of the R word in the book. I know the book was published in 2001, but I think the narration should have been edited to be more sensitive towards people with cognitive differences.
Imo, if you have one credit to spend, get Lisa’s Then She Was Gone or The Night she Disappeared

So good
Atmosphere: 👌
Felt like I was there! Descriptive without being overly detailed.
Main POVs: 👍
-a sheltered but accepting wallflower of a young adult. Prone to codependency but also learning the difference between that and loyalty/love
-a sheltered, rebellious young adult who peaked early. We see them develop into their mid-30s suddenly realizing their life seems to be turning into everything they worked so hard to avoid
Reading journey: 👍
Like a multi-day train trip through different neighbourhoods and the countryside with your found family…sometimes you are looking forward to the end but overall a wonderful time.
Show’n’tell: 👌 perfectly balanced
Great match if you like:
-found family and quirky, loving characters
-seeing characters develop and experience life over a long period
-cozy mystery but realistic and dark (like
Spoiler
-family dysfunction due to
Spoiler
-opposites attract romance
Vibes: 🥹😔😯
