About this listen

The deeper into the past she digs, the higher the price she must pay for the truth.

It’s been ten years since Alison’s perfect world fell apart. Ten years since her son Sam disappeared while on a family holiday. Lost at sea, they said, his body never found. And even though her brother and sister were supposedly looking after the kids, Alison will always blame herself.

Caught in a spiralling web of all-consuming grief where the lines between reality and fantasy blur, Alison refuses to let go. So when her ex-husband seeks to have Sam officially pronounced dead, Alison embarks upon a desperate and harrowing quest to discover what really happened that day on the beach.

But is the truth worth losing what is left of her sanity?

A story of how a mother is driven mad by grief but then claws her way back to discover the truth of what has happened to her son. This wasn’t as bad as I first thought, the disappearance of the child could have gone 2 ways. There is a lot of overwrought detail about the mother’s state of mind, some a bit laughable and there’s a great villain in her sister and another character, who is obvious from the beginning (signposted heavily by the narrator’s voice for him among other things.) I skipped a lot to get to the meat. Some of the character’s choices and motivations begger belief but it is a certain kind of fiction.
