Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

I was hooked from the first chapter. Gordon's narration is a joy to listen to, her ability to convey emotion through the slightest inflection is remarkable. The pacing is spot on, never rushing through crucial details or lingering too long on the mundane. Houghton's plot twists are expertly executed, each revelation leaving me questioning my assumptions. However, I did find some of the secondary characters a bit one-dimensional, which was a shame given the depth of the main players. Overall, 'The Other Child' is a thrilling ride that will leave you questioning your own moral compass.
