Under Ten Thousand Stars

By: Samantha Wood

Narrated by: Caroline Lee

"Michael was my love.... the perfect man, the perfect husband. I had the perfect life. And then it all went wrong."

Julia Falconer is an artist married to a successful winemaker in the coastal hinterland of southern Victoria. From the outside, it looks like Julia and Michael have it all, but things are never as they seem.

A storm has destroyed a major crop. Michael is devastated and is taking it out on Julia. And Julia retreats into herself, taking solace in her work, wine, and the comfort of her friend Christopher. Having stopped communicating almost entirely with Michael, Julia finds herself grappling with how her feelings toward Christopher are changing. He listens, he cares, he talks. But what does he really want?

Soon, Julia will discover how wrong she was about the man she thought she loved...and the man she really does love.

Under Ten Thousand Stars is a story about secrets and lies, loss and betrayal, and how people are never what they seem.

Excellent

But...wish she developed more of a plot. Very talented writer, written in good taste. The characters were vivid.

Unfortunate Characters

I had to return this book. The characters had no redeeming qualities. The narrator was excellent as Caroline Lee always is.
