About this audiobook
"This is one helluva read. Incredibly raw and visceral" - Harriet Tyce, author of BLOOD ORANGE
"Thought-provoking and honest" - Winnie Li, author of COMPLICIT
"A page-turner" - Louise Dean, author of BECOMING STRANGERS
"I couldn't put it down" - Tasha Coryell, author of LOVE LETTERS TO A SERIAL KILLER
"A riveting study of power and control..." - Louisa Reid, author of THE POET
"Keeps the reader on their toes in the best way" - Kate Riordan, author of THE HEATWAVE
Therapy was meant to solve her problems, not make them worse...
Smart twenty-year-old Dani is desperate to overcome her eating disorder, leave her dead-end job and return to her hard-won place at university. Using her limited earnings, she decides to start seeing a psychotherapist.
Richard Goode is educated, sophisticated and worldly-everything Dani aspires to be. As he intuitively unpicks her self-loathing, Dani assumes the fantasies she's developing about him live only in her head. That is, until things take a shocking turn...
Descending into a maelstrom of twisted desire, manipulation and mistrust, the power struggle between Dani and Richard escalates until she's forced to make a decision that might finally give her the freedom she deserves.
Perfect for fans of MY DARK VANESSA, Fifty Minutes is a propulsive and bold debut that marks Carla Jenkins as a vital new voice in fiction.
