Publisher's summary

This Must Be The Place: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!*

Short-listed for the Costa Novel Award - A Richard and Judy Pick 2017

A reclusive ex-film star living in the wilds of Ireland, Claudette Wells is a woman whose first instinct, when a stranger approaches her home, is to reach for her shotgun. Why is she so fiercely protective of her family, and what made her walk out of her cinematic career when she had the whole world at her feet?

Her husband, Daniel, reeling from a discovery about a woman he last saw 20 years ago, is about to make an exit of his own. It is a journey that will send him off course, far away from the life he and Claudette have made together. Will their love for one another be enough to bring Daniel back home?

*Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

Excellent

The narrators Penelope Rawlins and Thomas Judd are awesome. In the beginning I found the music intrusive but grew to enjoy it and found that it helped set the mood for each chapter. The characters are fully developed and become like good friends so that I am very sad to leave the world of the Sullivan's. O'Farrell is an insightful author whose narrative keeps one tied to the pages till the very end.
