Summary
For eight strangers in a Los Angeles hostel, even the other side of the world isn’t far enough. The craving for a new identity and the desire to start again is something they have in common. But they discover that it doesn't matter where you are or who you are - if you can't lay the past to rest, fate and coincidence have a way of catching up with you.

Everyone has a story
One Hostel in the LA. Eight strangers with pasts they’re trying to forget. A brilliantly woven tale, a great listen narrated well.

Interwoven characters with stories to tell
My first read of John Marrs and will not be my last. It’s a tale of many characters and I just was hooked. I also enjoyed the narrator as they can make or break a book.

John Marrs is a Great Storyteller
I only discovered John Marrs recently and have already read all his books. His storytelling is superb and the narration has always been spot on. This book contains a wide range of interesting characters with a diverse range of back stories. I love John Marrs and I'm looking forward to The Passengers.

Turbulent lives
I enjoy a John Marrs book, however this was not his best. The storyline was based in America but thank goodness it had a British narrator, or I might have had issues finishing it. Good plot line and as always very complex and interesting characters, however I personally felt something was missing. I would still recommend the book asJohn Marrs is a writer who thinks out of the box making his books quirky and different. Personally I think he has s lot in common with the writer Luke Smithered both writing strange but excellent story’s .

Amazing storytelling
Just love all John Marrs’ books, each one so different. Wasn’t sure if I could cope with all the different characters in this one, however the constantly developing plot all fell into place eventually with many twists along the way. Well done Mr Marrs, can’t wait for the next book being released in September

A solid Marrs story
Enjoyed this book. Not my favourite of Mr Marrs’s books but a good read nonetheless. A few twists which I didn’t see coming but more predictable than some of his others which I found a little more gripping. The narration by Peter Noble was outstanding and I felt it enhanced the telling of this story. A very talented man. I good book which I would be happy to recommend.
