About this listen

Newlyweds Margaret and Patrick decide to spend a year in Kenya. Patrick practices medicine while Margaret works as a photojournalist. Then a British couple invite them on a climbing expedition to the summit of Mount Kenya. During their ascent an horrific accident occurs. In its aftermath, Margaret struggles to understand what happened on the mountain and how it has transformed her and her marriage, perhaps for ever.

I downloaded this for a long drive and it nearly killed me. Waaaaay too much detail in everything and hours of filler content - just so boring. The ending was very abrupt and parts of the story line not resolved.

Dragged on and on and on…

Didn't enjoy the narrators phoney accents. The story ended very abruptly, which was dissatisfying.
