About this listen

Jess Moulson is convicted of murder. But it's a murder she can't remember committing. Nothing is quite clear from the drug-fuelled night when a blaze set in Jess' apartment killed the little boy upstairs. But when the media brands her a child killer, she starts to believe it herself.

Now she's on her way to Fellside, the biggest, most formidable women's prison in Europe, standing in the bleak Yorkshire moors.

But Jess won't be alone in her prison cell. Lurking in the shadows is an unexpected visitor...the ghost of the 10-year-old boy she killed. He says he needs her help - and he won't take no for an answer.

I NEVER cry so this was a job well done in story writing - as always this narrator and author are the dream team! I hope they work together more

Okay so the ending made me cry 😭

Anyone who has read The Girl With All the Gifts knows that M.R Carey can write. This story is a complete departure from the end of the world and 10 year old zombies, centred around a junkie named Jess who wakes from a coma to discover she has killed a 10 year old boy in a fire. Her face and all her memories have been destroyed in that fire, and she only begins to piece it together with the help of the dead boys ghost...

best ending!!

I tried to give this a chance but I only lasted a few chapters. I just couldn't deal with the narrators voice.

Couldn't get past the narrator.

some great aspects to the story but went too long and some of the plot turns didn't add to the overall story

too long
