About this listen
For over 20 years, Joanne Lee's mother kept the remains of three newborn babies hidden in her wardrobe. For the first time since exposing her mother's crimes, Joanne breaks her silence over her family's horrific ordeal.
Growing up, Joanne suffered at the hands of a violent boyfriend and controlling relatives, as her mother lapsed into a downward spiral following the breakup of her marriage. But the consequences of her mother's lifestyle turned out to be worse than Joanne could ever have imagined. She already knew about the baby buried in a shallow makeshift grave next to the family plot. But when Joanne came across a red plastic bin in her mother's wardrobe in 2009, she realised that the family home held an even more sinister secret. In Silent Sisters, Joanne will tell her story, detailing her struggle to understand her mother, to piece together the truth and give the four babies the proper burial they deserve.

I enjoyed this book, but it did drag on at the end, which was disappointing... about 10 chapters to long.

This was a brilliantly written and narrated story of siblings growing up with more than their share of tragedy and loss.

An interesting insight into a hard and sad at times childhood growing up. Well narrated. So much reproduction & many broken relationships.

Heartbreaking family loss while a family grows in strength
Such a heartbreaking read and absolutely devastating what could happen to 4 babies. The story of abuse, neglect, and suspicious and unnecessary loss is what draws you in as a reader. But I finish this book with a heart full, on the emotional love, strength and connection a family has formed as a result. Well narrated and I wish this family all the love and healing they deserve. RIP silent sisters
