Summary

‘Utterly compelling!’ Lisa Hall, bestselling author of Between You and Me

‘A good, old-fashioned page-turner, with a poisonous sting in the tail.’ Daily Mail

She thought they had a perfect marriage….

When a plane crashes, Iris Griffiths watches the news unfold with horror…and then relief. Her beloved husband Will had just flown out from the same airport, but he was on a different flight.

So why is his name on the list of victims?

Surely there’s some mistake – her husband would never lie to her. Would he? But wading deeper into the truth of her husband’s deception, Iris begins to think the unthinkable.

Maybe she’s glad that he’s dead…

A chillingly unsettling psychological thriller, perfect for fans of Paula Hawkins, Liane Moriarty , Shari Lapena and Clare Macintosh. Are you ready to question if everything in your life is really as it seems…

predictable and annoying

none of the characters were particularly likeable apart from Evan and he's not in it near enough

One of the best listens in a very long time. the narrator was excellent and very believable. I felt every emotion that the main character experienced.
The ending was not was not what I wanted but more realistic

The Marriage Lie

Kept me inside the story. Had to force myself to pause to enable me to do normal life! Didn’t expect the ending!
Highly recommend .

This Turned Out To Be A Strange Listen

I was not sure about this book and almost gave up many times, however you do get to a point when you have gone so far you might as well get to the end. I suppose it was enjoyable but some of the narration got on my nerves particularly the mens voices. I guessed from the start most of the supposed twist, which was a total let down, no real twist at all. I suppose the best part was the final two lines !
I would not rush to recommend this book if you like complex psychological thrillers that keep you guessing.

Great story

I enjoyed this but found the mom's 'Dutch' accent to be annoying in its lack of authenticity and it was distracting. The performance for all
other characters was flawless
