Iris Lockhart is stunned when she receives news that her great-aunt Esme, a previously unknown woman edited out of her family's history, is being released from Cauldstone Hospital, where she has been confined for more than sixty years, and soon discovers that Esme holds the key to long-hidden family secrets that could change her life forever.

Review:
Actually unputdownable, written with charge and energy and a kind of compelling drive, a clarity and a gripping dramatic insidiousness reminiscent of classic Daphne du Maurier (Ali Smith)

O'Farrell's subtlety and delicate touch have never been so finely demonstrated (Independent on Sunday)

Mesmerisingly good (Daily Mail)

O'Farrell's story-telling skills ensure that this novel is compulsively readable, and delivers strong emotional punch (Telegraph)
From the Publisher:
This unabridged audiobook is read by BAFTA award winner Daniela Nardini, who is perhaps best known for her role as Anna Forbes in the BBC 2 television series This Life. More recently, Daniela appeared in Festival, a film comedy about the Edinburgh Festival, which was nominated for six Scottish BAFTAs.

The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox is, quite simply, electric: the most breathtaking story you will encounter this year. With passion and exquisite control, it reveals the story of Esme, an unhappy child in colonial India, and later a troubled young woman in 1930s Edinburgh, who tragically does not fit into that straight-laced world, and of the devastating decision her family makes when this situation becomes a crisis. It shows us how her family closes around this terrible secret - so that when, many years later, a young woman, Iris, gets a call from a psychiatric hospital saying they are about to release Esme, Iris has genuinely never heard of her - and how Iris and Esme piece together a story as heartbreaking as it is shocking.
