About this listen

What was my sister doing standing over Florence’s cot in the middle of the night?

I trust my sister, Carrie, with my daughter’s life.

But then she’s accused of a terrible crime.

Carrie lives under our roof, she pushes my daughter on the swings, she takes her out for ice cream.

You might ask, why do I let her? Why would I risk my darling baby? How could I let my sister stay?

Because I have a dangerous secret, too. One that only Carrie knows about. And if that secret gets out, I could lose my little girl....

A completely gripping rollercoaster of a listen about the darkness families hide behind closed doors. Fans of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train will be hooked on The Girl She Wanted.

Just another great book by K L Slater. It didn’t take me long to finish because I couldn’t stop listening! Had me hooked from the start. Loved it!!!

Another hit

Nothing happens. There is no basis for the worries expressed by characters. The nurse is accused of the most ridiculous thing without having done anything wrong. Can’t finish. Too frustrating.

Not what I expected

Another amazing book by K L Slatter. I really think she is now my new favourite author.
This story was absolutely brilliant and had my glued to find out who it was.

Amazing

This book was interesting but the story was at times frustrating as well. Some of parts of the story were just not plausible but by the time I finished it, it didn’t matter. Overall a great story, interesting characters and very good narrator!! Her voice is just perfect for the story.

What a roller coaster!!

Had me up late wanting to find out who did it. Some parts were predictable. The characters tend to repeat their thoughts and concerns repetitively. The performance was very good, dramatic. Better than most narrators.

Easy listening

Well that was something! I don’t want to give away any spoilers… so instead I’ll just say I enjoyed it thoroughly. When I want to re-read it again immediately, then I know it’s a good one! Thanks KL for another gripping thriller nestled in domesticity. My favorite kind!

Gripping thriller!
