When seventeen-year-old Isla Richardson is killed in a hit-and-run incident, a community’s lives are thrown into disarray.

Reseñas de la Crítica

‘You’ve watched Adolescence, right? This has the same feel to it–of teenage lives gone horribly, terrifyingly astray, despite loving parents and childhoods; of parents absolutely unaware of what is going on in their children’s lives.’—The Observer

‘Three Mothers is the kind of novel that leaves you with a knot in your stomach, especially if you’ve ever asked yourself: “What would I do to protect my child?” or worse, “What wouldn’t I admit to myself if it meant keeping my world intact.”’—Cape Argus

‘An all-consuming, heartbreaking tale that reminds us how fragile life and relationships can be.’—The Sun

Kept my attention can’t wait to read more by her!

This popped up in my recommendations and I’m happy it did! It kept my attention the whole time and loved the twists and turns

Great listen!!

Wonderfully written! Beautifully narrated! Such good twists and turns. Kept me listening until the very end.

Eh it was ok

The narrator was ok, but I prefer books that have different narrators for the different characters. It was kind of long and drawn out. A little bit predictable. Decent enough.

The twists and turns.

I couldn’t put this book aside. I usually read three books at a time (switching back and forth), but once I started this one, I couldn’t stop until I finished it. I did feel that the end dragged on a bit too long. Otherwise it had no flaws.

Good story easy to follow

It was an easy listen . There were some surprising twist that I did not see coming . A little bit of stuff that was threw in but really didn't have any relevance. All in all it was a good book I do love how they carried on with what happened after the crime was solved and tied everything together.
