Summary
Bloomsbury presents What Have I Done? written and read by Amanda Prowse.

Kathryn Brooker is the headmaster's wife. While her husband spends his days disciplining unruly teenagers in the grand halls of Mountbriers Academy, Kathryn spends hers baking scones for her son's cricket match in a beautiful cottage in the manicured school grounds.

In the evenings, when her husband strides home to compliment her cooking and kiss her hello – ignoring jokes from their children about grown-up lovebirds – Kathryn Brooker is the very picture of a fulfilled wife and mother. Anyone who peered through the downstairs sash window at the four figures sat easily around their scrubbed-pine kitchen table would see a happy family without a care in the world. They would envy Kathryn her perfect life.

But they would be wrong. Kathryn is trapped in a nightmare. And she is about to do something to change it. Something only a truly desperate woman would do...©2013 Amanda Prowse (P)2018 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Critic Reviews

This story of a woman's fight to rebuild her shattered life is captivating, heartbreaking and superbly written
A cracking page-turner
A sorry but somehow inspiring tale of a woman who kills her husband after years of domestic abuse and coercive behaviour. It's a book ahead of its time
