About this listen

It was a summer of love and a summer of secrets.

She has built a good life: a husband who adores her, a daughter she is fiercely proud of, a home with warmth and love at its heart. But things were not always so good, and the truth is that she has done things she can never admit.

Then one evening a phone call comes out of the blue. It is a voice from long ago, a man from a past that she has tried so hard to hide. He knows who she really is and what she has done. Now he is dying, and he gives her an ultimatum: either she tells the truth, or he will.

And so we are taken back to that long, hot summer of 1976, to a house by the sea on the southern coast of England, where her story begins and where the truth will be revealed....

Told in dual narratives that jump back and forth in time, Elliot Wright has crafted a story with secrets that unfold through the very last minute. Compelling, immersive, and thoroughly surprising, The Secrets We Left Behind is a stunning follow-up to the author's acclaimed UK debut The Things We Never Said.

Very interesting!!! Brilliant story

This is a very unique book. I enjoyed it immensely and the narration was great.
Many very surprising twists and turns and brilliantly portrayed characters.
Takes you to places you can’t imagine being but had the capacity to make you find sympathy for the main character. It was a different story and kept you enthralled till the end.
A good ending too.
I highly recommend this book. It’s worth a Credit but I thank Audible Plus for giving it to me. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Great Listen please do.
