The Winter Sea

By: Susanna Kearsley

Narrated by: Rosalyn Landor

When best-selling author Carrie McClelland visits the windswept ruins of Slains Castle, she is enchanted by the stark and beautiful Scottish landscape. The area is strangely familiar to her but she puts aside her faint sense of unease to begin her new novel, using the castle as her setting, and one of her own ancestors, Sophia, as her heroine.

Then Carrie realizes her writing is taking on a life of its own and the lines between fact and fiction become increasingly blurred. As Sophia's memories draw Carrie more deeply into the intrigue of 1708, she discovers a captivating love story lost in time.

After 300 years, 'Sophia's Secret' must be told.

Loved the book! And Rosalyn Landor is the best!!!

The book was beautifully written, my first by the author actually, I only decided to listen because it was narrated by Rosalyn Landor who is my favourite. Now I hear they have changed the title of the book, ans also changed the narrator! Big mistake!!! Nobody can bring the characters to life as Rosalyn Landor! I hope the author uses her voice in more of her books. Overall, a lovely, heart-touching love story, superbly narrated!

The story

It is s good book but it takes a while to get into it and the narration is okay, the main character sounds like she is very very young which is a bit odd, but after a while you get used to it

wonderful- lost myself in the past

As with all her books this is wonderful. My second favourite after Marianna. Her heroine and hero are well developed.

Great and monotone narrator

I loved the story; sweet and genuine. (I cannot vouch for the Scottish). However, the narrator is kind of monotone AND then suddenly there is flow and nice melody to the narration. So mixed feelings :)

Couldn’t stop listening!!!

One of the best Audio books ever!
If you loved the “Outlander” series you are going to LOVE this one.
One of my absolute favorites!!! 💗
