About this listen

A heartbreaking and ultimately uplifting story about mothers and daughters, love, and loss. Perfect for fans of Lucy Diamond, Beth Moran, and Amanda Prowse.

Dear Lexie, it feels funny writing to you, but of course, you always wanted to go and do great things. So letters it is, until I see you again. I saw a flower today, and it reminded me of you…

As Edie writes to her long-distant daughter, she finds herself going over her memories of Lexie's childhood, not just the moments that held them together, but also the things – and the person – who ultimately tore them apart.

Perhaps by writing, she will be able to work out what went wrong. And if she can do that, surely she will find a way to bring Lexie back, to make their family whole again?

But revisiting the past isn't as comfortable a journey as she'd hoped. And the truth comes with a revelation that will shock Edie, and change everything…
