Emotional but fantastic
I have just finished listening to this. The second to last chapter made me cry. But it was great to hear how well Max is doing in the last chapter. Rest in Peace Kaz

Fantastic heart wrenching story.
Fantastically written as usual. Very thought provoking and really tugged at the heartstrings. Would highly recommend reading with a box of tissues.

Amazing!!
Oh my goodness the twists in this true story is so heartbreaking but Cathy has written it so well as she has done all her books. It must of been so hard to write it and revisit it. It really is a must listen book but you will need the tissues on hand.
I love DeNica Fairman Narrating she does such an amazing job. I really wish she did Casey Watson's books as the Narrator who does her books I can't get away with.
Well done Cathy for yet another incredible book! 😊
