The House of Ashes Free Audiobook Download by Stuart Neville


A house on fire has never been a good sign for anyone, but when the flames are coming from inside your house, it's worse. Imagine waking up one morning to find that the red brick house you've called home for decades is now completely engulfed in flame. That's what happens to Dr. James Trevelyan, a well-respected London pediatrician and husband of a high-ranking government official, who wakes up to find his family destroyed by fire.

On a rainy day, Jack has just been released from prison. He's on the run from both the police and the people he owes money too. A chance encounter changes everything.

The House of Ashes is a novel that is set in Northern Ireland during the troubles in 1969. It begins with a young woman called Alice who learns that her oldest brother, Charlie, has been arrested and taken to prison on suspicion of involvement with the IRA. Alice sets out to find him and he releases her from the house they grew up in after she tells him she no longer believes in what they were fighting for.

The House of Ashes is a mystery novel about the twin sister of Charlie Mortdecai, a famous English art dealer. The narrator-Caroline Lennon-is his twin sister, who was left destitute after her brother's death and has moved to Los Angeles to start over. She uses her poor background as an excuse to be compassionate towards others who have fallen on hard times, which gets her involved in solving their problems.

The House of Ashes is a novel that has sparked much debate because of its subject matter, which is racism in post-apocalyptic United States. However, what makes this book special is the narration. It was narrated by Caroline Lennon, who chose to read it in an Irish accent. This variation on the voice adds to the suspense of this story where people are constantly being attacked because they are living among piles of ash from Ash City.

This is a story of love and loss and revenge as told through the eyes of a young woman. The House of Ashes is really well written and has such a powerful message. I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys reading a gripping and moving story.
