About this listen

The unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Forgive Me, a compelling story of a daughter uncovering her mother’s secret past from the No. 1 bestselling author, Lesley Pearse. Read by the actress Alison Dowling.

Cheltenham, 1991, when Eva Patterson returns home from work one day, a devastating scene awaits her. Her mother, Flora, lies dead in the bath. Beside her is a note saying only: “Forgive Me”. Eva is shocked to find out that her mother was once a successful artist back in the 1960s.

When she visits her mother’s old studio, she finds a collection of Flora’s paintings and diaries. Searching for answers, Eva encounters a psychic who mysteriously warns her to beware of a “sleeping serpent”, which she soon discovers refers to a shocking crime in Flora’s past. Will discovering the truth destroy Eva’s belief in everything she holds dear?

I liked the book however it seemed like it finished too soon. What happened with her sister? Did she and Phil buy a house?
Did Ben finish his studies? Was Andrew ever convicted? I may have missed something but I feel a little ripped off!

It’s like going to Bunnings to get your COVID jab and then not getting a sausage.

Loved this book. I'm not a fictional reader much but this book was great right from the first paragraph. Descriptive enough but not over the top, so it pictured the locations and characters perfectly. The story was written so well and I couldn't wait to listen to more every day....sad it ended. The narration was perfect with all the various accents. Loved it 😁

Enjoyed listening to this book while on a 13 hr flight, the perfect way to fill in time. Storyline was entertaining and believable, taking me to another place and time!

Enjoyable
