About this listen
On a leafy suburban street in Dublin, beautiful, poised Stella Greene lives with her successful husband, Matt. The perfect couple in every way, Stella appears to have it all. Next door, at number 72 however, lives Rea Brady. Gruff, bad-tempered and rarely seen besides the twitching of her net curtains, rumour has it she’s lost it all…including her marbles if you believe the neighbourhood gossip.
But appearances can be deceiving and when Stella and Rea’s worlds collide they realise they have much in common. Both are trapped in a prison of their own making.
Has help been next door without them realising it?
With the warmth and wit of Maeve Binchy and the secrets and twists of Liane Moriarty, this is the utterly original and compelling new novel from Irish Times bestseller Carmel Harrington.
‘Both heart-wrenching and uplifting. The perfect summer read’ Irish Times Bestseller Fionnuala Kearney

loved every minute of it
fantastic book. the characters were so relatable for me and the twists and turns within it were so well put together. I felt very emotionally involved.
Aofie is my favourite narrator and anything she chooses to narrate seems to be gold. check out some of her other narrations if you enjoy this one.

An absolute cracker - quite beautiful
I had been looking for more books narrated by Aoife McMahon when I found this one. I really wasn't sure about it, but it was absolutely brilliant. I didn't wasn't it to end. I won't give anything away. It was brilliantly written, so believable. I shall always remember Boxing Day 2004 and that horrendous Tsunami. Living here in Australia we got the news earlier than Europe. Carmel Harrington covered it so well.

Distressing but very good
A beautifully written story about tragedy and trauma. Quite distressing to listen to at times but with plenty of heart and lovely characters. Aoife McMahon is always a pleasure to listen to.

Heartbreaking
This story was not what I was expecting at all. It was tragic and heartbreaking. I feel the listener should know that this book is about the Boxing Day tsunami, before making a decision to listen to it. There was nothing in the blurb or Sample to suggest this and despite my 5 star review, perhaps I wouldn't have chosen to listen to it if I knew. Can't stop thinking about the tsunami now... 😢

Absolutely Captivating
Throughout every chapter, my heart was racing, and I got chills and goosebumps in equal measure. It was like I was there in every scene
