About this listen
'There were good people in The Homes. But there were also some very, very bad ones....'
A thousand unwanted children live in The Homes, a village of orphans in the Scottish Lowlands on the outskirts of Glasgow. Lesley was six before she learned that most children live with their parents. Now Lesley is 12, and she and her best friend Jonesy live in Cottage 5; Jonesy the irrepressible spirit to Lesley's quiet thoughtfulness.
Life is often cruel at The Homes, and suddenly it becomes much crueller. A child is found murdered. Then another. With the police unable to catch the killer, Lesley and Jonesy decide to take the matter into their own hands. But unwanted children are easy victims, and they are both in terrible danger....
Inspired by a true story, and introducing listeners to the unforgettable voice of young orphan Lesley, The Homes is a moving and lyrical thriller, perfect for listeners of Val McDermid, Chris Whitaker, Jane Casey and Denise Mina.

I was born and broken in Birkenhead, abused from infancy by a network of every kind of pervert from ‘thinks it’s love’ to ‘show it hurts’. I was unwanted, beaten, sold, swapped, photographed, filmed, left for dead, corrupted, blamed, betrayed, ignored and orphaned. But I was also born with a fire inside me. I call it my Phoenix Fire. I am no victim—that word only describes what happened to me. Nor am I a survivor because that implies I am over it. I am a Phoenix—a work in progress. This is my story....

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder.

No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs.

Fantastic
I primarily read epic fantasy and sci-Fi so I did not expect to be so invested in these characters. The author does a phenomenal job bringing these characters to life. Listening to the author’s note at the end, I kinda understood what exactly I loved about it. The setting and main character is generally based off the author’s mother’s youth and you can sort of feel the love and respect that went into creating it.
The narrator was also phenomenal. I’m not from the UK but the accent wasn’t so thick that I had difficulty following. It was easy to get lost in the story.
If you’re on the fence with this one, I recommend that you give it a go. It’s a beautiful book.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
