About this listen

It's not just secrets buried at Wild Meadows.

For as long as they can remember, Jessica, Norah and Alicia have been told how lucky they are. Rescued from family tragedies and raised by a loving foster mother on an idyllic farming estate, they were given an elusive second chance of a happy family life.

But their childhood wasn't the fairy tale everyone thinks it was. And when a body is discovered under the home they grew up in, the foster sisters find themselves thrust into the spotlight as key witnesses. Or are they prime suspects?

A thrilling page-turner by New York Times bestselling author Sally Hepworth of sisterhood, secrets, love and murder.


LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKPEOPLE BOOK OF THE YEAR ADULT FICTION 2024

'Sally Hepworth's Darling Girls is the kind of story that grabs you hard and doesn't let go. Easily one of the best books I've read all year. An absolute page-turner from first word to last, and a story told with wit and compassion. It's got HUGE HIT written all over it, and I'm going to be pressing it into the hands of everyone I know. A superb and haunting mystery.' Jane Harper

Twist

Binged this one. Really hooked me and I needed to know the outcome. One part was a bit predictable quite early on. But still enjoyed.

good aussie crime / mystery story

Great story, memorable character about Australian foster care system. The psychology of the characters well rounded, sometimes too well, no loose ends. I want to see the movie now ☺️ Highly entertaining. Won’t win the Pulitzer, but definitely a page turner.

I loved how Sally explored all sides of the story - she really knows how to hold your interest with her writing. An easy listen!
