Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4
Michael has lived with his Thai wife in Thailand for 12 years and Spain for two, but failed to get her a residence permit for the UK. She was sent back to Thailand and he moved back to his home town of Barry in South Wales to try to "get her in" before Brexit. The chances are slim, and he sinks ever deeper into despair even sleeping on the beach to save money. In truth, he starts to lose his mind with worry and loneliness. He won't even go to his family for help, because he feels that they have shunned him, but is he right?

Story5 out of 5 stars 10
Robin Cartwright had known pure love and loss, but she had moved on. Every morning before the fog burns off, she hears a baby's cry that is with her all the way into town, past a farmhouse where the cry seems to escalate out of control. There's something about the way the baby's cries abruptly end. A memory that haunts her, niggling in her mind. Casey Fields knew all about the cries; they were with him every second of every single day. No matter how hard he tried to get Robin to leave, she wouldn't stay gone. The farmhouse has something to do with the cries, with the memory, but what?

Publisher's Summary
Heng Lee is a goatherd in the remote mountains northeast of Chiang Rai in northern Thailand, very close to the border with Laos. It is a tight-knit community where everyone knows one another.
Heng gets sick all of a sudden but not too sick to take the goats out, until one day, he has to go to see the local shaman because he has started fainting. There are no medical doctors in the vicinity, and the Shaman has been good enough for most people for centuries.
The Shaman takes some specimens and comes to the conclusion that Heng’s kidneys have stopped functioning and so has little time left to live. The battle is on to save Heng’s life, but there are other forces at work too.
What will become of Heng, his family, and the rest of the community if he takes the Shaman’s advice?

Unique Vampiric Tale
I must say that this book is a very unique vampire beginning tale. The story is well with quirky characters. Melanie Crawley voice is perfect for the narration and voices. The story does have quite a few humorous parts. There are parts of the book I did not like but all in all it was a fantastic book. I received this book from Audiobooks Unleashed and this is my honest unbiased review.

A different vampire story.
l couldn't fault the narration and the story was certainly not like anything l had listened to before. lt held my interest and was an interesting concept. l don't think l would call it a laugh out loud comedy but that may be my humour type. l am also torn between 4 and 5 stars.
