About this listen

'We came out here to begin again. We came out here for the clear air and a fresh start. No one said to us: beware of fresh starts. No one said to us: god knows what will begin.'

Timely and suspenseful, Sealed is a gripping modern fable on motherhood. A terrifying portrait of ordinary people under threat from their own bodies and from the world around them. With elements of speculative fiction and the macabre, this is also an unforgettable story about a mother's fight to survive.

Heavily pregnant Alice and her partner Pete are done with the city. Above all, Alice is haunted by the rumours of the skin sealing epidemic starting to infect the urban population. Surely their new remote mountain house will offer safety, a place to forget the nightmares and start their little family. But the mountains and their people hold a different kind of danger. With their relationship under intolerable pressure, violence erupts and Alice is faced with the unthinkable as she fights to protect her unborn child.

Intense story. Be patient with the narrator.

I really enjoyed the tone of this book. It was an intriguingly refreshing point of view for a mother who wasn't entirely sure of her situation. The narrator takes a bit of time to fully hit her stride but eventually nails it.

Very Good

This book was awesome, and creeps on your every fear (especially for women). I could definitely relate to the main character and there is a particular chapter in the book that had me physically ill while listening (cold sweat and cringing) and that's a very difficult reaction to get out of me as I've read many thriller\horror novels and nothing has made me react as much as this book did. Good job!
