Publisher's Summary

When she was 9 years old, Melody Browne's house burned down, and it took all of her childhood memories with it. Now she's a single mother of a teenage boy living in Central London. She hasn't seen her parents since she left home at 15, but she doesn't mind. She's better off on her own. She works as a dinner lady at her son's school and has no idea where her humdrum life is heading. But one summer's night, a hypnotist inadvertently unlocks memories of her childhood, and her whole life is turned upside down.

At first, these new memories mean nothing to her, but as Melody slowly begins to piece together the real story of her childhood, she begins to uncover mystery after mystery and wonders if she'll ever know the truth about her past...

Raw, realistic and remarkable

I think I got this book as a mistake, I had read the synopsis of another book and confused it with this one. Since I really enjoy Lisa Jewell novels. I thought I would give it a try and I am so happy that I did. The main character was so realistic and so emotionally raw, it really didn’t feel like a work of fiction. What a masterpiece, every single character is so well flushed out and developed, and all from the perspective of this most amazing main character. Please take a chance on this book, you’ll be glad you’re dead.

The Truth

Yet another terrific read. The narrators are some of the best! Written as if you are part of the actual story line.

Enjoyed!!!

I really enjoyed this book and kept waiting to find out the next story elements - finding times to listen extra in my day even too! One of the most enjoyable Lisa Jewell books I’ve read! (There we’re a few plot holes but I could see past them for an easy. Enjoyable summer read/listening!)

DISAPPOINTING LISA JEWELL NOVEL

I have listened to so many of her books, but this one wasn't up to her standard. I will now move on from Lisa based on this novel.

a good story of family twists and turns

though evry family has its secrets, its drama, and pain, each is a full unique story with pain love and hope. this story was intriguing while you waited to uncover new truths.
very interesting.
