About this listen

For eight strangers in a Los Angeles hostel, even the other side of the world isn’t far enough. The craving for a new identity and the desire to start again is something they have in common. But they discover that it doesn't matter where you are or who you are - if you can't lay the past to rest, fate and coincidence have a way of catching up with you.

Book was OK. It took far too long in my opinion to get to the core of the book and have things start to get interesting. I’d say you have to be very patient for at LEAST the first 5 hours to fully get into the book. Not one of his greatest compared to the rest.

this story was such a fantastic ride, you get to know each character so well, all with a problematic past and uncertain future and yet all blend together perfectly. narration was also great considering all the different accents. highly recommend.

I found this book a little convoluted at the start; there are lots of characters and the timeline switches regularly. But persist with it, the author, narrator (and reader/listener!) all get into a groove after a few chapters and it becomes an enjoyable listen.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
it was very hard to follow in the beginning as there were too many characters and too much going back and forth. Chapters were too short, and there were so many of them. The
ending was OK, but not sure if I would recommend this book to others.

Too many moves back and forth in time
