About this listen

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Stolen by Lesley Pearse, read by Lucy Brownhill.

Sussex, 2003

When a beautiful blonde girl is found half-drowned on a beach, she has no memory of who she is or what horrors have left her there. But an article about her in a Brighton newspaper rings alarm bells for beautician, Dale, who shows the police photographs of Lotte Wainright. The girls met working on a cruise ship and their friendship blossomed as they sailed the seas of South America, until Lotte fell under the sinister influence of an older American couple. To her regret, Dale hasn't seen Lotte since leaving the ship months earlier ... but the girl on the beach - although badly bruised - is indeed her much missed friend.

Their reunion only marks the beginning of a dangerous tidal wave of secrets, lies and nightmares. Where has Lotte been? Who is the man who seems to want to kill her? And what has become of the baby she's recently given birth to?

Dale and Lotte must dig deep and find the strength to hold on against the odds if they are to rebuild their friendship and survive Lotte's stolen - and deadly - past.

This story was narrated in such a way that the author's words came to life and pulled the listener in. it was so good I drove twice round the block to hear the end before going home. This author is a great writer, and I haven't been disappointed with any of her novels as yet and I doubt I will be.

Exciting non stop reading

struggled to finish. only did as something to do while on a long haul flight. found myself thinking I could have written this better and that's saying something! pretty unbelievable and poorly thought out.

what a waste of time. story messy and soppy.
