About this listen
A dying wish. A devastating secret. Should the truth really stay buried?
The four Bliss siblings have a loving but complicated bond, but when their mother, Dorothy, dies seemingly without a will, this relationship is put to the test. As the mourning siblings try to make sense of the situation, one of them is caught with a secret: before she died, Dorothy entrusted her favourite daughter with her will and a letter - and told her to destroy them both.
Of course it was Anna their mother turned to for this mission. Miriam, the eldest, is far too sensible; Sebastian, the baby, too sensitive; and Clare, the middle child, has always been too rebellious to rely on, and long ago cut herself out of her siblings’ lives.
But what Anna finds in the documents could change everything. Do the other siblings not deserve to know what it is about them that their mother was so desperate to hide? And if it is revealed, will the Bliss family ever be the same again?

The troubled child
I really enjoyed every chapter of this book. I especially liked, and could relate to, Dorothy. I also found it interesting how one child in the family can be so vastly different from any others. As I have seen in my every day life. That’s what makes this story so believable - all the scenarios and events are extremely believable - a most enjoyable read/listen!!

overlong and boring
I didn't enjoy this at all, persevered to see if it would get better. it didn't. the characters were unlikeable and the story was predictable and uninteresting.
the narrator's voices were grating, in particular the Irish accent, and it made the characters even more annoying.

The Thing About Clare.... is that she is a selfish cow and the rest of her family is equally unlikable.

Tried to stick it out
I love a good secret but this story was long on boredom and short on secrets. I wanted to scream ..get to the point..where is this heading? It just rambled on. I didnt finish it. The story line jumped around from one year to another without really saying much or revealiing anything interesting. The character Clare was a definite pain. None of the characters were very interesting. Not enough to make you want to continue reading. Sorry but its a NO from me!
