At the beginning of this novel,
I wasn't sure if this story was for me. However, I am a big fan of Tavia Gilbert, and after the first few chapters, I was drawn in....By the final chapter, I realized that this book was meant for me to read. Thanks to this wonderful work of fiction, I am on my way to seeing my life in a different way, and my heart is beginning to heal! I am not the best at following religion, but I am a believer. In my humble opinion, a Devine force has been guiding the work of this author and as always guiding a spectacular performance by the MOST talented Tavia Gilbert.

In a boarded-up house on a dead-end street at the edge of the wild Washington woods lives a family of three. A teenage girl who isn’t allowed outside, not after last time. A man who drinks alone in front of his TV, trying to ignore the gaps in his memory. And a house cat who loves napping and reading the Bible. An unspeakable secret binds them together, but when a new neighbor moves in next door, what is buried out among the birch trees may come back to haunt them all.

I really cannot say anything about this book without giving the plot away. It is a very creative story and I applaud both the author and the voice actor. Unfortunately, this book wasn't at all what I was expecting to read. I am extremely disappointed.

if you haven't had the pleasure of reading a book by Catherine Ryan Hyde I highly recommend you start now! I have either read or listened to every book by this amazing and talented Author and I have NEVER been disappointed..not once...by any of her books. And Michael Crouch hits it out of the ballpark with his Spot on narration! His performance really brings the characters to life! I have over 600 titles in my audible library and have only been moved enough by a story to leave a handful of reviews. This book deserves to be praised and acknowledged with 5 stars across the board!

I am really at a loss on how to rate this book.
The narration was perfect! I haven't heard this narrator read before and I stand up and applaud this extremely talented voice artist. To be quite honest, it is more than likely the only reason that finished the book. Now, for the story itself...it grabbed my attention and kept me awake until the wee hours of the morning... I really felt like the story was going to bring everything together and really hit it out of the ballpark with an earth shattering ending...without giving anything away..I have to say that I was left thinking...really?? thats it?? There were SO many characters piled Into the story that just didn't need to be there. Nobody really served a purpose or added to the storyline. I have to say that I am truly disappointed and feel cheated out if my time and credit.
