Book description
Behind Closed Doors - An Audiobook Review
Sue Smethurst's Behind Closed Doors is a hear-tripping, deeply human story that finally gives voice to a survivor who once lived in silence. Narrated with raw honesty, the audiobook takes listeners through Katherine's unimaginable journey of abuse and resilience. The first half retraces decades of systematic sexual violence inflicted by her own father-an experience so painful it echoes worldwide through cases like Joseph Fritzl's. Yet Smethurst does not merely recount horror; she offers a profound look at how such atrocities can remain hidden, even in close communities.
What makes this audiobook truly compelling is its new epilogue. Katherine's testimony before the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse is brought to life with an emotional intensity that will stay with you long after the final word. The recording captures her frustration and betrayal at being ignored for so long, while also celebrating her courage to rebuild a shattered life and protect her children.
The production quality-clear narration, subtle pacing, and thoughtful pauses-allows listeners to absorb the weight of each revelation without feeling overwhelmed. Smethurst's writing is accessible yet powerful; she balances detail with readability, ensuring that even those new to such stories can follow along while still engaging deeply with Katherine's experience.
If you are looking for a narrative that blends heartbreaking truth with an inspiring message of survival, Behind Closed Doors offers both. It invites listeners not only to bear witness but also to reflect on the importance of listening and believing survivors. This audiobook is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand how hidden abuse can persist-and how courage can bring it into the light.
