About this listen

‘The week I shot a man clean through the head began like any other . . .’

In the freezing January of 1989, mother-of-two Birdie Keller wakes to the news she’s been waiting seventeen years to hear: the man who destroyed her life has been freed from jail.

Birdie leaves for London with a gun and a plan: to find him and make him pay. But Birdie is about to enter a world she knows nothing about, of family lies and worn-out loyalties, of secrets and truth, of betrayal and forgiveness. In hunting down justice, she herself becomes hunted – and must ultimately face the echoes of a past she’s never left behind.

The Sunshine Man is the suspenseful new novel from Emma Stonex, bestselling author of The Lamplighters.

Intriguing story and some beautiful writing. There are some difficult sections, especially the first encounters with Jim in prison, but well worth persisting to get into the heart of the story. Narration is outstanding. Highly recommend!

Great narration!
