Little One

Claire Storey delivers a masterclass in audiobook narration, perfectly embodying both Fran’s skepticism and growing unease. Her performance is nothing short of chilling, particularly when describing Esther’s every movement with an eerie calm. Sarah A. Denzil’s writing is meticulously crafted; each chapter leaves you questioning what really happened that night by the swings. The pacing is deliberate but never draggy—every pause feels intentional and impactful. However, while the story builds a strong atmosphere, it sometimes leans too heavily on exposition, which could be smoother. Nonetheless, ‘Little One’ is a compelling listen for fans of psychological thrillers who thrive on suspenseful narratives.
