Free Audiobook : Then She Was Gone, by Lisa Jewell

Dive into "Then She Was Gone" by Lisa Jewell, an audiobook that grips you from the first breath. Ellie Mack was fifteen, bright and golden, the kind of kid who lit up a room, until she vanished without a trace ten years ago, leaving her mom, Laurel, stuck in a fog of grief. Now, with the family splintered and the case ice-cold, a chance meeting with a charming stranger named Floyd pulls Laurel back into the world, stirring up questions she thought she’d buried.

Floyd’s got a smile that warms her, and a nine-year-old daughter, Poppy, who stops Laurel dead in her tracks. There’s something about the girl, something eerily familiar, that tugs at the edges of Laurel’s memory, setting her on a quiet hunt for answers. As their lives tangle, the past creeps closer, whispering hints of what happened to Ellie, while shadows from long ago start to take shape in the present.

Lisa Jewell crafts a story that’s raw and haunting, perfect for an audiobook that sinks into your bones. The narration weaves through heartbreak and hope, pulling you along with every twist of Laurel’s unraveling world. It’s a slow-burn mystery wrapped in a mother’s love, the kind that keeps you listening late into the night, chasing the truth alongside her.
