About this listen

Sometimes the biggest story of your life happens before you’re even born… and sometimes, you get to discover it. One email is all it takes to turn Mala’s life upside down… an email from a stranger 10,000 miles away. Now, as memories from her childhood swirl up in familiarity, she sees them in a different light, as though they’re puzzle pieces that have a new way to fit together. Everything is the same, yet everything is different… The story she thought she knew is true, but there’s been another truth running beneath it the whole time. At 53 years old, Mala didn’t think she had anything new to learn about her past, but now she sees just how much information she’s been missing. She has a decision to make: Will she meet Sakura, the face behind the email, or will she go on pretending that there are no missing pieces in the story of her life? As she wrestles with her decision, we’re taken back in time to 1972 and the story of Aunty Helen, Uncle Peter, and the secret child they must decide what to do with… a story that has had more of an effect on Mala’s life than she’s ever known. When we make sense of the past, we begin to make sense of ourselves, and Mala’s in for a huge voyage of discovery… and maybe, a whole new chapter of her life.

This was more than just a story about family—it’s about what happens when the truth shows up later in life. I liked how the narrative unfolded slowly, revealing layers that made earlier moments feel even more meaningful. The back-and-forth timeline worked well and gave both sides of the story real weight. It’s reflective, emotional, and leaves you thinking long after it ends.

This story hit me harder than I expected. I was completely pulled into Mala’s journey—how one unexpected message unravels everything she thought she knew about her past. The way the author weaves between timelines is so well done, and the emotional depth in both the present and past stories had me hooked. It's not just about family secrets; it’s about identity, forgiveness, and what we do with the truth when it finally finds us. Absolutely worth the listen.

I read novels occasionally and I found this one to be both entertaining and so realistic. The narrator tell the story in a heartfelt manner. As you listen to it you can clearly imagine what the characters are going through. The author does a great job a highlighting the different pressure and expectation belief systems hold and how many times does system take a toll on our lives. Novels such as this one help us see the bast differences that exist outside of our own culture and help broaden our perspective in general. I like this novel's call to action made which is asking us to be more respectful of each others' difference and compassionate to one another.

There’s something powerful about stories that connect generations. I didn’t expect the emotional weight behind this one. The characters felt real and the slow reveal of hidden truths made it hard to pause. It’s the kind of story that lingers after it ends. Great Listen!
