We Live Here Now

A Novel

By: Sarah Pinborough

Narrated by: Helen Baxendale, Jamie Glover, Sarah Pinborough

“Told in alternating perspectives divided into 'Me,' 'You,' 'Us,' and 'Them' sections, the narrations by Baxendale and Glover perfectly match the slow build of the story. Both capture the determination, guilt, and duplicity of the characters as the plot twists.” —AudioFile

Award-winning author of New York Times bestselling breakout novel (and hit Netflix show) Behind Her Eyes returns with a haunting Gothic novel about a house—and a marriage—gone terribly wrong.

After an accident that nearly kills her, Emily and her husband, Freddie, move from London to a beautiful Dartmoor country house called Larkin Lodge. The house is gorgeous, striking—and to Emily, something about it feels deeply wrong.

Old boards creak at night, fires go out, and books fall from the shelves, and all of it stems from the terrible presence she feels in the third-floor room. But these things happen only when Emily’s alone, so are they happening at all? She’s still medically fragile; her postsepsis condition can cause hallucinatory side effects, which means she can’t fully trust her own senses. Freddie doesn’t notice anything odd and is happy with their chance at a fresh start.

Emily, however, starts to believe that the house is being haunted by someone who was murdered in it, though she can find no evidence of a wrongful death. As bizarre events pile up and her marriage starts to crumble, Emily becomes obsessed with discovering the truth about Larkin Lodge.

But if the house has secrets, so do Emily and her husband.

And they live here now.

This program features multicast narration, including by actors Jamie Glover (The Crown) and Helen Baxendale (Friends).

Fabulous!!!! One of my favorite books ever read!

I was glued to this book not knowing really anything about it! It was such a good story so original nothing like I’ve ever read before! It kept me on my toes and I couldn’t stop listening to this book. The narrators were wonderful as well hands down One of the best books I have ever read! Very clever story.

So good!

Really good and very unique! It’s absolutely not what you think it’s going to be! This should definitely be a movie someday!

Excellent

This needs to be a mini series. It would be better than the show based off a previous book - due to the more colorful characters and their situations.

Believable characters, storyline is madness but in a good way. i was kind of hoping they'd burn the house down but remembered what happened when that was done before. Excellent book if you like old ghost stories told in a new and /creative way.

Such a unique story!

I love everything about this book! It was so unique and kept me on my toes the whole time.

very much Mr James

very very slow burn...if slow burn and MR James is your jam this book is so very much for you. Takes quite a while for the story to become engrossing.
