À propos de cet audio

Cora Bender killed a man. But why? What could have caused this quiet, lovable young mother to stab a stranger in the throat, again and again, until she was pulled off his body? For the local police it was an open-and-shut case. Cora confessed; there was no shortage of proof or witnesses. But Police Commissioner Rudolf Grovian refused to close the file and began his own maverick investigation. So begins the slow unraveling of Cora's past, a harrowing descent into a woman's private hell.

Hailed as Germany's Patricia Highsmith, Petra Hammesfahr has written a dark, spellbinding novel. At the top of the best seller list, The Sinner has been reprinted 16 times and sold over 760,000 copies at home. Translated into 11 languages, this is the first Hammesfahr title published in English.

I was familiar with the story after watching the tv show - I much prefered the book. Given my own issues of growing up in a devoutly religious home and guilt-ridden over a siblings health, this book particularly resonated with me. I knew all the twists and turns (and there's many, and they're fantastic) before I set out to read it, and therefore got to really appreciate how accurate the portrayal of trauma and shameful guilt was. in short: brilliant.

The performance was amazing. Characters were emotive, distinct, and compelling. I am so happy I listened to this as an audiobook.

excellent exploration of trauma and guilt

Not sure why this book was rated so highly. It was repetitive and boring. Would not recommend.

Not that good
