Publisher's Summary

The Keeper of Lost Things: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!*

Meet the 'Keeper of Lost Things'...
Once a celebrated author of short stories now in his twilight years, Anthony Peardew has spent half his life collecting lost objects, trying to atone for a promise broken many years before.

Realising he is running out of time, he leaves his house and all its lost treasures to his assistant Laura, the one person he can trust to fulfil his legacy and reunite the thousands of objects with their rightful owners.

But the final wishes of the 'Keeper of Lost Things' have unforeseen repercussions which trigger a most serendipitous series of encounters...

*Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

Such an gem of a book

Beautiful book, very nicely written. Loved the background sounds and music. It’s like having a movie in your head. Very calming book!

Beautifully written but skip the musical version!!

This is a wonderful story, of hope and second chances. However, I would strongly recommend that people skip this version with background music. It’s hokey, unnecessary and beyond distracting- as if a story this well written needs background music! And to make matters worse, the music wasn’t even good. Not sure who thought that listeners would benefit from hokey sound effects and background elevator ‘musac’.
