Sleep Sister

De: Laura Elliot

Narrado por: Marcella Riordan

Two childhoods destroyed.

One story they will never tell.

Until now.

Beth ran away from her family when she was a teenager. She left behind a terrible evil that took her innocence. She also left behind her sister, Sara. When Beth returns home, she is shocked to discover her terrible secret is not just hers alone...she shares it with Sara. Under the shadow of a remote headland, the sisters make an oath they promise never to break.

Eva's birth is a mystery that remains unsolved. Years later with her marriage in ruins, and her future uncertain, she realizes that to move forward with her life, she must first understand her past. But while Eva is drawing closer to the truth about her roots, Beth and Sara's lives are falling apart, crushed under the weight of the secret they carry. They must confront the past and face the darkness once more. But this time, their story will be heard.

From the best-selling author of The Betrayal, Stolen Child and Fragile Lies, comes a breathtakingly tense and emotional story of the fierce bond between sisters, and a family destroyed by a disturbing secret.

Little slow but good

This turned out to be quite the elaborate story spanning over many years. It took me awhile to get into it but glad I stuck with it as it eventually came together. It was slow at times but overall a good listen.

Excellent

This story reflects the many hidden stories of abuse that took place in Ireland in the past. Gripping and suspenseful, sad and heroic. A must read.

glad I stuck with it

loved the accent threw me a little trying to keep track of it but by the end really enjoyed it with the accent couldn't imagine it any other way.
