About this listen

Winner of the Guardian Not the Booker Prize 2015.

Twenty-year-old Rona Leonard walks out of her sister Fiona's flat and disappears.

Six years on, worn down by a tedious job, child care and the aching absence in her life, Fiona's mundane existence is blown apart by the revelation that, before she disappeared, Rona had been working as a prostitute. Driven to discover the truth, Fiona embarks on an obsessive quest to investigate the sex industry that claimed her sister. As she is drawn into a complex world, Fiona makes shocking discoveries that challenge everything she believed and will ultimately change her life forever.

Bittersweet, sensual and rich, Fishnet takes a clear-eyed, meticulously researched, controversial look at the sex industry and the lives of sex workers, questioning our perception of contemporary femininity.

Really enjoyed the way this book was put together and I feel there is room here for a sequel. I want to know more about what happens to the sisters going forward. Fantastic.

Good book expertly read

Liked the storyline. Thought it would be all about sex but it reads more like a novel. Very interesting angle on sex work and something I haven't given much thought to before, so definitely mind expanding and enjoyable at the same time.
Would have liked a more defined and stronger ending though.

Very good narration
