The Woman in Coach D

De: Sarah A. Denzil

Narrado por: Katie Clarkson-Hill

This book contains strong language, and adult themes that may not be suitable for everyone.

Jenny sits in the same seat on the same train every week, seeing familiar faces come and go.

Until a chance encounter shatters her world.

Sixteen years ago, Jenny survived a traumatic ordeal that left her best friend, Susie, missing and presumed dead. The world has its theories about what happened to Susie Patterson, and one of those theories points the finger at Jenny.

Now she lives a quiet life, volunteering at a crisis helpline while trying to deal with her own anxiety and the true crime fans obsessed with finding her missing friend. Then, on the way to her usual shift, Jenny is certain she sees Susie sitting in coach D.

But will anyone believe her?

Seeing Susie plunges Jenny back into a nightmare of forgotten memories and haunting fears. As the past claws its way into her present, she must unravel the truth about what happened sixteen years ago.

But the deeper she digs, the more she realises that some secrets are better left buried.

Decent

While I agree it drug out a bit I thought it was decent. For me the way the narrator pronounced “says” was the most absolute annoying thing ever! Yea I listen to British books all the time and have never heard it pronounced that way and I almost could not take it!

Suspended in suspense

I personally loved the slow pacing and the narrators work! A vibrant and caring voice taking on the task of portraying the protagonist and all of her surrounding interactions was a pairing I felt went swimmingly well! And the colloquial pronunciation of the word says tickled me every time! It felt more genuine and immersive in a story from a place where I’m not from myself. I disagree with a lot of the top comments on this book. Give it a listen if you want a full story with all of its details in place. If you have patience beyond that of a short form video. If you are willing to get lost in the suspense of an emotional internal battle of will and subterfuge. Take a moment and enjoy the flowers in your hand. You might drop them while you get caught up paying attention to this story!

Easy, but good!!!

Easy to listen to…. Easy to follow… easy voice to listen to clear reader..fine and fairly quick read

This will make a good movie!

I really enjoyed the book - it was suspenseful. I think there is a lot they could do to adapt this to the big screen.

Original storyline great narrator

Understand how others say it is a long story but I wasn’t in a rush! It was a unique storyline and the narrator carried it through with a beautiful voice and cadence. Almost didn’t listen bc of reviews but so glad I did. I prefer listening to accents unlike my own American voice and find varied pronunciations interesting and charming. The narration made it a pleasure to invest time in a longer listen and I prefer that to a short story.
