About this listen

Yorkshire is in the grip of a heatwave, and Thruscross Reservoir has dried up to reveal the remains of the drowned village of Thores-Cross beneath.

Playing in the mud which coats the valley floor, four-year-old Clare Wainwright finds an old inkpot, and she can’t wait to show it to her best friend, Louise. But when Louise’s mother Emma sees it, her reaction is shocking, and both families are plunged into their worst nightmares.

Emma knows what the inkpot portends: Jennet has woken.

Now she wants the children.

Jennet will have your heart and your fear in equal measure. Through Jennet, we find how cruelty can drive even the most ordinary people to hatred and, in Jennet's case, evil.

I’ve really enjoyed the Jennet series and I have great respect for the author, but a narrator she is not. I’m sorry! The sound quality was poor and the narration felt rushed - some parts I couldn’t tell whose words I was listening to as there was no breath between sections. The first two books were narrated so perfectly, and so it’s a shame that Fleur couldn’t do this one too.
The story itself if great and I would definitely recommend it, but I’d advise the author to get Fleur to re record this or I’ll just encourage people to buy the physical book if they’re able to.

Great Book, Poor Narration.

I have just finished this, 3rd and final book in the series. I have been totally hooked and could literally cry they are over! I love the historical touch, it's easy to follow, really good back story that follows on for the future generations in the story. Would recommend if you like good old fashioned ghost stories with real characters. Brilliant! Need more!

Absolutely loved it!

I got through the first two books by a strong story that was let down by the narration.

I couldn't go any further than Chapter One on this one as the narration is absolutely dire. I actually feel cheated that I, firstly, paid for this and, secondly , will not discover the Jennet finale.

Awful narration
