Great dramatic reading! Engaging Story!

Narrator really made the characters believable and kept you engaged. Story was heart warming and heartbreaking with twists & turns along the way!

Unexpected!

I've watched almost all the films and decided to give this book a go, I hate reading so I'm glad it was an audio book. I finished it in only a couple days because I couldn't put it down! I wish they made this book into a film.

not one of Cookson's best

My library had alot of Cookson audiobooks back in the day when I started driving long distances and used that time to listen to books I didn't have time to read. I found Cookson's books enjoyable listening because they were usually well narrated, set in England's past which I find interesting and had interesting characters. Nothing too hard on the grey matter so perfect for passing time on the road. When I joined Audible, I hoped it would have most of her books, but it only has two and these are not her best. The Blind Miller is well read, and an o.k. listen, but I wish Audible would post her more well known novels and series.

wonderful book

it always seems to take me a little bit to transition from one book to another. I started this book several times partly because I was not concentrating on what I was hearing. I have not listened to one of her books that I haven't loved. I believe a big part of that is because of the fabulous narrator.

Catherine Cookson knew the human heart ...

in all its complexity and contrariness, the good, the bad, and everything in between. Highly recommended.
