Mari and Elisabeth have been at the center of each other's lives for years.

Everyone has secrets, and Rachel Holloway is no exception. She’s worked hard to keep the past where it belongs: dead and buried. And so far, she’s been very successful. But now the small newspaper where she works wants to produce a podcast on a cold case: the disappearance 12 years ago of young Molly Forster. Some secrets should never see the light of day, and, as far as Rachel is concerned, whatever happened to little Molly is one of them.

Shortlisted, Comedy Women in Print Prize
Yasmin Ghorami has a lot to be grateful for: a loving family, a fledgling career in medicine and a charming, handsome fiancé, fellow doctor Joe Sangster. But now the moment she has been dreading has arrived: it is time for her family to meet Joe's firebrand feminist mother.
As the two families are drawn closer together, long-held secrets, lies and betrayals unravel on both sides—and Yasmin is forced to ask herself what she really wants in a relationship and what a 'love marriage' actually means ...

Great characters and narration
I really enjoyed this book. The characters were all interesting, not just the main two or three but all of them. Very believable. I wanted a romance that wasn't just fluff and this was perfect.

A great listen
The characters were complex and flawed and each one evolved throughout the story. Engaging and thought provoking , life is complex and we can never completely know another person’s story or motivation.

Enjoyed this during my week in iso!
Could have been a shorter novel, but overall, I was hooked. Wanted something not dark or depressing and this was an interesting story about how we see our parents, love and different kinds of friendships and relationships.

An engrossing story. So well written, the detail was extraordinary. Engaging from the first page to the last. Ayesha Dharker narrated this superbly. I loved listening to her and the life she brought to Monica Ali’s characters. Loved it all

Stumbled on this gem by chance and so glad I did
I found this book by mistake - got the title wrong of the novel we’d picked at book club. So pleased I did as this was a fantastic read. It turned out to be so much more complex and intriguing than first appeared. The narration was excellent - loved all the characters’ voices but especially the voice the narrator gave Anissa, just magic. Highly recommend this book!
