About this listen

Liverpool, 1951: Dora Rodgers is settling into a new life with her daughters Carol and Jackie, moving on from the betrayal of her husband. But then an unexpected knock at the door rips her family in two.

Carol is taken away by a welfare officer to live with Dora's estranged husband, Joe. Dora is determined to fight for her child, but she struggles to cope when shocking news from Joe breaks her heart once more.

Most relevant  
It is a convoluted story with lots of plots going on.
It dwells on the mundane and the everyday a bit too much. Reads like a soap opera at times.
Dora ‘bites her lip’ too often.

The husband was just plain horrible. He cheated on his grieving wife and just kept cheating. The wife was a bit of an airhead seesawing between I want him and no I don’t love him. Then the husband gets entangled with his conniving mistress, and I couldn’t feel sorry for him. I was hoping for better.

I feel like I have been left with a cliffhanger
