About this listen
The Butcher's Daughter is a compelling psychological thriller which will appeal to fans of authors like Sheryl Browne, Nuala Ellwood and Teresa Driscoll.
When Natalie Powers returns home for the first time in 13 years, she must convince everyone she has fully recovered from the mental illness that has seen her institutionalised for most of her young life. But instead of being welcomed back, Natalie enters a baffling world of deception. In the village of Little Downey, everybody appears to harbour a mysterious secret, including her father, Frank, the village butcher, who refuses to discuss the circumstances surrounding Natalie’s mother's disappearance. But who can Natalie trust if not her own father? Especially when it becomes clear her protector and confidant, Dr Moses, is not all he appears. Meanwhile, a spate of unexplained clifftop suicides has seen the seaside resort go into decline. Are the villagers somehow involved, or is something more sinister at work?

interesting enough awful narration
There is a spit like clicking sound, gum chewing noise in the background when the narrator talks. Do not listen if you are sensitive to sounds it will drive you nuts.
Story was okay and a little confusing at points. intre

Confusing book
I was disappointed. I hate quitting a book halfway so I tried my best to get into this story. I fast forward many chapters and in about 2 hr 15 min left it started to pick up pace and I got really excited to listen. However, it became shocking and brutal and disjointed. Especially the last 2 chapters which was very sad.
This was an absolutely confusing ending. I finished this book without understanding who is who and what happened? Totally baffling and I was disappointed with the ending and the Epilogue was no better. Got me nowhere in understanding what really happened , what was factual and what was imagination. Most of all in the end I felt very sad for the little children.
The narration was good. The voice and tone kept me going perhaps that’s why I didn’t quit. Great job with a not so great book.
Not worth a CREDIT. Very happy that it was included in my library for free.

Chewing Gum?
This story was ok, but the performance made this unlistenable. The gum chewing and mouth smacking are disgusting, and I’m unsure why they went with this reader. So gross.
