About this listen

Deep in a national park on the east coast of Tasmania, the Bay of Fires is an idyllic holiday community. There are no more than a dozen shacks beside the lagoon - and secrets are hard to keep; the intimacy of other people's lives is their nourishment.

The fact that Sarah Avery has returned, having left her boyfriend and her job, is cause for gossip in itself. Then, the bikini-clad body of a young girl is found washed up on the beach...a year after another teenage girl went missing. Journalist Hall Flynn is sent to the coast to investigate, and all too quickly the close-knit community turns in on itself. As he uncovers long-buried secrets, the delicate balance of their fragile lives is threatened.

I listen to many audible books and this was pretty good..but the reader mispronounced at least 20 place names and her Australian accent was so 'kath and kim' I could barely keep listening.i paid for this and the reader did not do her homework.some words mispronounced were Launceston,Bass Strait, Bicheno,Ken Done, Pyengana, Fingal. to name a few.. understandable to get wrong I guess,but it ruined it for me

great book appalling reading

Honestly how can your narrator not check pronunciation of basic Australian sites. The worst was “Launston” but I’m pretty sure they sell Toyota Hilux in the UK so what’s with calling it a Heelux?

It’s LaunCESTon!
