    About this audiobook

    Ralph and Anna Eldred are an exemplary couple, devoting themselves to doing good. Thirty years ago as missionaries in Africa, the worst that could happen did. Shattered by their encounter with inexplicable evil, they returned to England, never to speak of it again. But when Ralph falls into an affair, Anna finds no forgiveness in her heart, and thirty years of repressed rage and grief explode, destroying not only a marriage but also their love, their faith, and everything they thought they were.

      last part about africa and return interestingwhole first half of book in present, do not know what happened in past, boring
    • 4/5
      I have just recently discovered Hilary Mantel so am such a fan that I think I would enjoy anything she has written. More than just telling a story, she creates an atmosphere, aka "climate," and the reader becomes immersed in the world of the characters. What more can an author hope to do.
