About this listen

In her new novel, Danielle Steel tells a riveting story of the dark side of motherhood.

Zoe Morgan's childhood was marked by her younger sister's tragic illness, watching as her parents dedicated themselves completely to her final days, and then later divorced. As a young woman, driven by these painful memories, Zoe set the bar high for herself, studying hard and pursuing a career in the nonprofit world, where her deep compassion towards disadvantaged children finds a focus.

When Zoe falls in love and has her own child, she is determined to be a perfect mother as well. But before long, old scars long dormant begin to pull Zoe to the edge of an abyss too terrifying to contemplate. As Zoe is haunted by the ghosts of the past, her story will become a race against time, and a tale of psychological suspense that no listener will soon forget.

Darkly compelling

This is not a typical DS novel, although her usual writing style is present. If you enjoy Domestic Suspense novels by authors such as Lisa Jewell, this is likely to appeal. I personally enjoyed it.

A gripping novel.

This is one of the best books by Danielle Steele in a long time. I have read/listened to all of her books, this is a change from her usual material, but definitely worth a read. I couldn't put it down, very realistic and a worrying theme. One of her best by far.

Anxiety-inducing

I was on edge half of the time listening to this book. I just kept thinking in my head, 'no please don't do that, please be careful', and thinking who on earth would let a woman do these things and not question it (sooner). The book was actually very good, but it did give me heart palpitations!

I was really impressed by this book!

The reality of child abuse is shocking. I find it hard to believe that mother's can intentionally harm their children. A very good book to read to know more about this tragic condition a mother can suffer from. The author Daniell Steel describes it so well.

The Dark Side review

I really enjoyed this book. I've been an avid reader of Danielle Steele for over 40yrs but this is my first audio book.
it is quite different to a lot of her other books but as it is based on a very serious subject, this is to be expected.
I would highly recommend it.
