About this listen

What if all you inherit from your mother are her secrets?

Isla knows her family kept things from her. When she inherits the cliffside cottage where she spent her childhood, she must face dark shadows of her past—the mother who rejected her in favour of her art, the aunt whose death haunted them both, and the silence that permeated every room. Digging through the belongings of someone she realises she never really knew, Isla finally has the chance to find answers to the secrets her mother spent a lifetime hiding.

But lies can’t be swept away by the tide. And when Isla crosses paths with a mother and young daughter visiting her remote hometown, she becomes entangled in their family’s secrets, too, forcing her to wonder whether the truth she is seeking will really set her free.

Isla’s past is as dark as the ocean around her. But when she comes up for air, the mysteries of this lonely shore will reveal themselves in unexpected ways...

Great narration

The story was great and the narration was exceptional. It totally added to the feeling of the characters.

Great character development

Not what I was expecting, much better! I enjoyed the character development so much, I felt like I knew each of them so well. Erin infuriated me so much, she didn’t take nearly enough responsibility for her part in the fall!!!

voice character

Loved the story! Sad, lonely, understanding, different perspectives, secrets, heart warming, friendship, kinship, suicide & depression. A tale of how we perceive others isn't always how things really are.

Brilliant story!

Although I felt as though the story was slow moving I’m so glad I stuck it out! What an incredible last twenty five percent! I never would have guessed Frankie would find that book! Mind blown. Frankie found her voice.

Drama

Too much “immature” psychological drama. I couldn’t decide between 2 or 3 stars but since I finished it, gave a 3. Would not recommend it.
