Hidden

De: Mary Perrine

Narrado por: Gina Marie Davies

Mary Claire O'Brien has hidden for as long as she can remember. During the week, with her father away in the city, Mary Claire feels like every other child - but on Fridays, everything changes. On Friday mornings, she rises onto her tiptoes and wraps her nightgown tightly around her legs to silence the swooshing sound she loves. She slowly becomes invisible. Hiding is how she remains safe; it's how she protects her mother.

At 10 years old, Mary Claire begs God to take her father away, but someone else has plans for him, and those plans will change everything.

Years later, Claire Stanton struggles with the secrets of her past, secrets she didn't know existed, secrets her mother holds tightly, right to the very end. After Claire's daughter becomes sullen and angry, she fears history may be repeating itself. With this new information taunting her, she takes matters into her own hands and vows to make the abuser pay, no matter who she destroys in the process.

Life is complicated. Secrets are destructive. But the truth is explosive.

Unique story- Worth the credit

I never review books but this one is new and there aren’t any reviews. I VALUE reviews. I don’t solely rely on them but do use them as a guide. This book needs a review. No spoilers

Narrator was good, not annoying. Accents were ok and most all words pronounced correctly.
The story is unique. The book kept my attention most of the time. I didn’t drift off from the story often as I went about my day. However, in retrospect, I’m not certain if the narrator drug out the story or if it actually was slow in places. Overall it was good, not great but definitely worth the credit.
