Summary

From Sunday Times best-selling author Santa Montefiore comes a novel about losing yourself, but finding your future.…

Ellen Trawton is running away from it all - literally. She’s getting married to a man she doesn't love, her job is depressing, and her mother is getting on her nerves. So she escapes to the one place she knows her mother won't follow her - her aunt's house in rural Ireland. Once there, she uncovers a dark family secret - and a future she never knew she might have.

Which Character is speaking??

Would you consider the audio edition of Secrets of the Lighthouse to be better than the print version?

There probably wouldn't be any difference since this narrator doesn't make each character stand out so that you never know which one is speaking.

What could Santa Montefiore have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Choose a Narrator with a bit of life in their voice.

What aspect of Maggie Mash and Gerri Halligan ’s performance might you have changed?

Chosen somebody else to narrate it

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Knowing the after life!!

Any additional comments?

The story was fairly good but as I have already said you needed someone with a bit of life in their voice to narrate it. Although do you really want o know what the after-life feels and thinks and also maybe choose a different sex to read the after life voice as it is very difficult to decipher which voice is reading which character to keep a track on the story. As quite often you had to rewind it and listen again.

Lovely story ....

I really loved listening to this book - and the story was good. My issue was the voices of the men!! Why would someone describe Connor as handsome and rugged ..... and he sounds like an ancient mummy come back to life?? All the men had this terribly slow dead speech ....... that was off putting and the only thing about this book I very much disliked! Besides the men this is a really great listen!
