The House on the Cliff audiobook

received a copy from the goodreads giveaway... a well written story that I found myself really getting lost in not sure how it would end. very pleasantly surprised with the ending she left where there is hope for the future, but not everything is neatly tied up in an automatically happily ever after, even the ending keeps her characters seeming real

Apparently everyone hated this book but it is the first book I've read in a long time where I just read and enjoyed it and wasn't distracted by how much I HATED EVERYTHING, and that is all I ask for in a book. Also I hate supposedly "good" books (I'm looking at you, The Fault In Our Stars, and your ironic hipster drivel) so maybe I should start looking for more 2 star reviews. This book was so devoid of strong feelings of hatred that I loved it. Not because it was great, because it wasn't. But because it was actually good enough. In the same way that Nancy Drew is good enough. I just read it and enjoyed it and that was all. I had absolutely no expectations going in, no idea what it was about, nothing, and it was blissful.

Elegantly written and a very good story. Easy to quickly become immersed in the life of Jessica Mayhew, the main character, a psychotherapist who becomes embroiled in the life of one of her patients. There are quite a few twists and turns in the story and some good surprises. Overall, a great book, will be looking out for the next from Charlotte Williams.

I'm a fan of psychological thrillers and Ms. Williams has delivered in spades with this one. Absorbing characters, intriguing settings, and a skillful journey through the maze of disturbed thinking.

I was reading over the reviews for this book and quite a few people did not like it and gave one or two stars. One person hated it so much she threw the book out. I had a different reading experience I enjoyed the book. It's author Charlotte William's debut psychological thriller novel. It was also a mystery. Very well written I found myself getting interested in Jessica Mayhew, the main character, a psychotherapist who becomes involved in the life of one of her patients Gwydion . Enjoyed the suspense and good for a debut novel.

Good debut from this author.Quick pace and great description of Wales and it's rugged beauty.

Kept my attention all the way through...which is more than I can say for most books these days. Enjoyed it.

First in the Jessica Mayhew series: a psychotherapist unravels a complex family dynamic while solving a murder.

Gothic, British and wonderful.

This is the story of Jessica, a married psychologist with two daughters, a teen-ager and a younger daughter. She becomes involved with a possible murderer through a client, son of the accused. There is a twisty plot and several surprises.
