About this listen

Sometimes, enough is enough . . .

Debbie Mullen is losing it. For years, she has compiled all of her best advice into her column, Dear Debbie, where the wives of New England come for sympathy and neighborly advice. Through her work, Debbie has heard from countless women who are ignored, belittled, or even abused by their husbands. And Debbie does her best to guide them in the right direction. Or at least, she did.

These days, Debbie’s life seems to be spiraling out of control. She just lost her job. Something strange is happening with her teenage daughters. And her husband is keeping secrets, according to the tracking app she installed on his phone. Now, Debbie’s done being the bigger person.

She’s done being reasonable and practical. It’s time to take her own advice.

And now it’s time for payback against all the people in her life who deserve it the most.

From #1 New York Times and international bestselling author Freida McFadden comes a biting subversive thriller about what happens when women finally choose to take justice into their own hands—with killer results.

This was a great story & very well narrated!

Not overly long, drawn out or complex. Just a good taste listen. I preferred the more lighthearted tone of the first half of the book to the second but this didn’t affect my enjoyment.

This was my first Freda McFadden book so I’ll definitely be looking into her previous & upcoming work.

Listened to this in one sitting!

Enjoyable read but in the end I felt ‘so what’. It is clever but somehow feels like white bread, no substance

Starts well, black comedy but descends into farce.

This seemed to take forever to come but it was worth it! So many twists and turns. It would make an excellent movie!

Worth the wait
