About this listen
All she wanted was the truth, but she'll wish she never found out.
When Catherine wakes up alone one morning, she thinks her husband has gone for a run before work. But Simon never makes it to the office. His running shoes are by the front door. Nothing is missing - except him.
Catherine knows Simon must be in trouble. He wouldn't just leave her. He wouldn't leave the children.
But Simon knows the truth - about why he left and what he's done. He knows things about his marriage that it would kill Catherine to find out. The memories she holds onto are lies.
While Catherine faces a dark new reality at home, Simon's halfway around the world, alive and thriving. He's doing whatever it takes to stay one step ahead of the truth.
But he can't hide forever, and when he reappears twenty-five years later, Catherine will finally learn who he is.
And wish she'd stayed in the dark.

After his mysterious disappearance 25 years before, he returns to unburden himself on his former wife
Firstly, I found this story depressing as hell...very English.
This man returns after having run away from his family 25 years before to tell his former wife, whom he blames, why he left.
What he ends up with is a revelation to his stupidity.
Very well written, this is not just his story, but the story of those he left behind.

The storyline gained predictability as it evolved but that didn't diminish the shock value at all.
this book focuses on accountability, responsibility, truth & denial. What drives some, and what do others use as an excuse?

Different
A very interesting book. It was unusual and different. I enjoyed it. A most well thought out story. What a horrible person.

Nothing special
The book was a little diificult to follow at times as it jumped around to so many different times and locations. I found the ending very unsatisfying too.

Disappointed!
Would you consider the audio edition of When You Disappeared to be better than the print version?
Unlikely - see comments below on the narrators.
What did you like best about this story?
The parallel accounts.
Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Elizabeth Knowelden and Simon Mattacks ?
I don't know but the male had the accent so, SO wrong it really ruined my enjoyment of what might have been a more enjoyable listen. The female narrator, with a ‘neutral’ accent was better but still wrong for the region of the setting, Northampton!
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
There were some unnecessary coincidences that moved me to despair! For example, that Catherine happened to have a bottle of Simon’s wine and the friendship of the half brothers – both unnecessary for the story.
