About this listen

How far would you go to protect your children?

For parents living in the beautiful coastal town of Pacific Pines, all their hopes and dreams are pinned on the outcome of the annual Gala Day hosted by St Ignatius Boys' School. To be accepted into the prestigious institution, their sons must battle it out, facing rigorous rounds of physical and mental tests. Their parents will stop at nothing to ensure their sons succeed.

But after one boy is struck down in a hit and run, the scandals, secrets and lies that entangle three mothers threaten to unravel their seemingly perfect lives . . .

How far will the women go to, not just to save their families - but also their reputations?

Make sure you don't miss the latest scandal.

Awful narrator

Hated the narrator. Very baby-ish voice and I feel I may have enjoyed it more reading the actual book.

Twists and Turns

A very enjoyable listen, narrator was excellent and the story kept twisting and turning in all directions and still surprised at the end.

Local, relatable mothers

Interesting storyline. Twists. Great character building.

Narration started off quite very monotone. But then soon after got into great inflections and character voices.

Suspense at the school gate

Loved everything about this book. The pace, the sunny, cliffside location, the secrets being kept by the characters, the twists, the deaths… Perfection.

Another gem from Ali Lowe

I’ve loved Ali’s last 2 books and this 3rd book didn’t disappoint. The plot, the characters and the style, loved all of it!

Entangled families

Good easy story line, interesting twists in the plot, it all came together so well at the end, with an underlying sinister tone.
well worth it for 🙂
