Acerca de esta escucha
Clayton Miller's life is a mess. His career as one of the country's best comedy script writers has stalled, and his long term girlfriend has left him for his ex best friend and ex writing partner. Just when he thinks his life couldn't get any worse, he commits a spectacularly public fall from grace, and with the press hounding him, his agent banishes him to the middle of nowhere until the dust has settled.
At a remote country house he meets Alice. Alice Shoemaker is a voiceover artist who habitually goes to great lengths to avoid telling the truth. After agreeing to help out a friend, by shopping and cleaning for the unknown man staying at Cuckoo House, she soon becomes suspicious that her strange and obnoxiously rude client has something to hide. But equally so does she. When they discover the truth about each other they form an unlikely friendship, but then Alice discovers Clayton has betrayed her in the worst possible way.

Janine Potter grew up on the other side of the tracks. Her mother, Nancy, struggled with just about everything—alcohol, men, money—and Janine made a pledge to herself that she would never be like her. At age nineteen, Janine met Jack Potter, the son of an oil tycoon, and never looked back. Her life became a series of cocktail parties and multi-million-dollar apartments all across the world, and rubbing elbows with celebrities. Slowly, memory of her mother faded, although the trauma never really did.

Devastated, she flees to a tiny seaside village called Pennystrand, where she spent golden summers as a child, before her family fell apart.

When Cara stumbles across a stash of old postcards in the attic, their contents make her question everything she thought she knew. The story she pieces together is confusing and unsettling, and appears to have been patched over with lies. But who can tell her the truth? With her father sinking into Alzheimer’s and her brother reluctant to help, it seems Cara will never find the answers to her questions. One thing is clear, though: someone knows more than they’re letting on.

Any additional comments?
This is my first Erica James book. Took me a couple of chapters to get into it, but once I got into it I really enjoyed it. The narrator was lovely to listen to and did wonderful accents.

I found this story to be captivating! I couldn’t wait to get back to it, time and again. I was a little sorry to see it end! The characters are distinct and evocative, and the story delivers at every corner. Very satisfying, indeed!

I couldn't put it down....
The story draws you in quickly and you can't stop listening. The characters are rich, flawed and funny. I dare you not to laugh out loud and shed a couple of tears. Well worth the download.

Good story
This is a great easy listen, the right amount of characters that u can get into them without having to follow too many plot lines. The story has some twists and turns, and it moves along at a good pace. Well worth a read.
