The Man in the Yellow Trousers
A Psychological ThrillerBy Maximilian C. James
Length6h 41m
About this audiobook
Clara Venn was four years old when she came home. Her mother was never completely certain she had brought back the right girl.
Decades later, after her mother’s death, Clara returns to the town she thought she had escaped. Then she sees him: a man everyone seems to recognise, but nobody can properly explain. A carefully curled moustache. A brown leather case. And impossibly bright yellow trousers.
As Clara begins asking questions, the memories she has trusted all her life start to fracture. Someone has been telling her a story about who she is—and someone has gone to extraordinary lengths to make her believe it.
The Man in the Yellow Trousers is a disturbing psychological thriller about memory, identity, family, and the terrifying question of who gets to decide who you are.
