Publisher's summary

For Paul and Debbie it was meant to be the happiest time of their lives. A small village wedding in front of their family and friends, followed by a quiet honeymoon in Devon.

Not everyone had been happy to see them together. A woman from their past refused to accept it. Her actions over the previous year had ended in tragedy, and had almost broken the happy couple apart.

Now, away from it all in a picturesque log cabin, Paul and Debbie look forward to time spent alone together.... But she has found out where they are, and she will stop at nothing to make sure that the marriage is over...forever.

But Huntswood Cove isn't just a beautiful Devonshire fishing town, it has its own secret. Recently, people have begun to disappear, only to turn up dead in suspicious circumstances. The locals begin to question what is going on.

Soon everything strange points to the abandoned house in the woods. The house that nobody wants to talk about. To them, it is the place that never existed.

Strange & Creepy

This weird, strange tale was enjoyable to listen to. There's mystery, suspense, creepiness, romance, action and adventure. This story is about a newlywed couple, an abandoned house, a small town and a psychotic ex. I actually turned it off about an hour before bed, due to the creepiness, so it wouldn't influence my dreams! Also, I did not see the end coming. It's...different and that's all I'll say. The narration by Nigel Peever was absolutely wonderful! Not only did he give the characters their own voices and emotions but his sound effects really kept the suspense and creep factor up there. If you enjoy get-under-your-skin creepiness then this book is for you but remember...it is enhanced!

Brilliant Descriptions!

The Place that Never Existed is a mystery novel with an unexpected ending! Following the newlyweds as they embark on their honeymoon we get a glimpse of their lives unfolding throughout the story. Even the most perfect relationship will still feel the influences of past experiences and these two are no exception. Jim Ody did a beautiful job adding realism to his characters. The small details within each held my attention and the dialogue was entertaining, driving the story along.
Nigel Peever's narration was brilliant and well done throughout the book. His accents displayed the background of each character and he flowed seamlessly from one to the next. This was an excellent listening experience.

Great little story

This well written tale is narrated by an extremely talented narrator. I was pleasantly surprised by the ending which was nothing like I assumed it would be. I'm positive that you will love this one.
