About this listen

Laid to rest.
Emotional drama

One photo captures three generations of a family divided by a decade of grief, their shared pain a silent cry for help. In a race against time, they struggle to heal and reunite, but is it too late?

The author has written a nice, touching story of three generations - it is short, but you do get to see some depth in the characters. I think a few more short stories of this calibre and she'd have a great book. I didnt love the narrator - would have preferred a British narrator who know how to pronounce Loughborough!! However, that is a minor detail - as the content of the book is well written, gripping and enjoyable - just a litle short and would be nice to have some more short stories added to make an anthology.

Wow, I did not know what I was getting into when I jumped into this book, but I am glad I did. The healing that takes place in the family is something I latched onto, and felt my own healing as well.

I was completely drawn into Laid to Rest from the first page. The way it captures the raw emotions of a family torn apart by grief is both heartbreaking and beautiful. It’s a story about pain, healing, and the hope for reconciliation. I felt connected to the characters and their struggles—it’s emotional, relatable, and unforgettable. A must-read if you enjoy family dramas with real depth!

The story is good and the idea of 3 generations being intensified is also nice but the story is too short to be remembered or even talked about

Good story but very short

I liked how the story built everything around one photo. The ending wasn’t overly dramatic, but it left me thinking about how people avoid talking until it’s almost too late.

Not super uplifting, but real
