“I don’t think you kidnapped Sammy Went. I think you are Sammy Went.” On her lunch break in Melbourne, Kim Leamy is approached by a stranger investigating the disappearance of a little girl from her Kentucky home twenty-eight years earlier. He believes Kim is that girl. At first she brushes it off, but soon finds herself questioning her family history and begins to unravel an unexpectedly dark past. A combustible tale of trauma, cult, conspiracy and memory by an exciting new Australian author.©2018 Christian White (P)2018 W. F.

While this was quite an interesting story, the narration made it impossible to listen for any length of time as it was a strange mix of slow-mo interspersed with a kind of chuckle! I had to work hard to finish this book and almost gave up several times.

I love this book, it’s so suspenseful and I did not predict the thrilling twists and turns that this story takes. I’ve already recommended it to multiple people and they have all loved it as well. Such an easy read but so interesting as well. I actually can’t wait to read it again! Well done Christian

I nearly gave up on this story because of the narrator who sounded amateurish at times. She adopted a cute voice for example when reading about a child and a little giggle when reading about something funny or ironic. She did improve by the end however. The author sprinkled Americanisms throughout the story which was unnecessary for an Australian novel BUT overall it was a read book and I’m glad I preserved.

Great story with some annoying bits
