About this listen

What if another woman tried to take your place as “Mummy”?

Sally Bentham thought adoption made her family safe. She was wrong.

When Amelia’s new teaching assistant turns out to be her birth mother, Sally’s world begins to collapse.

Robyn Clarke is warm, capable, trusted by everyone. At the school gates each morning, she whispers in Amelia’s ear, wins over the parents, charms the teachers—and slowly draws Sally’s daughter closer.

Neighbours insist Sally’s paranoid. Friends tell her to be grateful. But Sally knows what Robyn wants.

And she knows she’ll stop at nothing to get it.

Her Daughter’s Mother is a dark, addictive slice of domestic noir about obsession, betrayal, and the dangerous secrets lurking behind respectable doors.

Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Louise Candlish, and Shari Lapena.

Wasn’t sure what to expect from this book as went in blind but what I got was a great psychological thriller which pulled me into Sally’s world as the main character. This is a book which builds, and the more things progress the more claustrophobic it felt to be in Sally’s story. Really enjoyed the narration by Alice Sockett, bringing the characters to life and giving proper voice to Sally’s rising desperation. A great listen.

Twisty story which pulls you right into the head of the main character

This is the kind of book you can’t put down - or stop listening to. Gripping thriller brought to life by the narrator perfectly. I could feel every emotion through Alice’s narration which made the story even more compelling.

Gripping & great narration

Exceptional performance yet again from narrator Alice Sockett. This book felt like watching a Harlan Coben series. So good! Can't believe it was inspired by a true story!

Brilliant Northern Noir Psychological Thriller!

A very gripping listen- went into it blindly and I couldn’t help but want to know what happens next to the female protagonist. I especially enjoyed the narrator who carried the characters with true depth of emotion, worthy of the story.

Thought provoking and unexpected
