About this listen
The twisty psychological thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of After Anna and Seven Days
Everyone lies…but some lies are deadly.
For Claire Daniels, life is good. She has everything she’s ever wanted – a career she loves, friends she can rely on and a husband who dotes on her. All she needs is to start a family of her own and things will be even better than good.
They’ll be perfect.
For Alfie, it couldn’t be more different. His life with Claire is built on a lie. A lot of lies. And she can never find out.
Because Alfie has plans for her. Plans which must never come to light. But lies have a way of taking on a life of their own, and when his do, the consequences threaten to destroy everything.

An average listen for me
This book was ok, it was really easy to listen to, narration was good but the story itself was just ok.
If you want something quick that you can switch off to then have a listen. But if you want a good thriller I would look elsewhere.

Good listen
Well I genuinely enjoyed it! Twists were good and for once my suspicions were right!
Wish there was a guy to read Alfie chapters, but other than that, I liked the audiobook

Couldn’t stop listening!
I’m so picky with my audio books. If I can’t get into the plot while I’m busy with something else I give up after a few chapters. This book had me hooked though! And, unlike others of this genre, had a really good ending. Highly recommend this book.

Interesting and engaging listen
I gave this 5 stars as I liked the characters and enjoyed the way the story unfolded. Great narration and each time I stopped listening I wanted to go back and hear more. Good twists and great plot. I will read others by this author.

Narration is good
I liked it. Easy listen! I don’t know if I’m a psychological thriller junkie but I had an incline about the storyline. I personally found it predictable but nonetheless and good storyline

Loved it!
This is a really satisfying book. The characters are really well drawn. The tale is compelling and its well written. I guessed what was going on long before the end, but that didn’t detract from the enjoyment of listening. The narration was very good. It would have been faultless if not for a very brief slightly dodgy Scouse accent and a couple of place where the emphasis was wrong on a sentence. I look forward to more from this author and the narrator.

loved it
it's the first book I've read by this author and I will definitely be reading more. It had some really good twists in it, wasn't too predictable and the narrator was exceptional, she really brought the characters to life
