Summary

From the global no.1 bestselling author of We Play Games and Secret Sister comes a dark and twisted psychological thriller about loyalty, betrayal, and the lengths we'll go to protect the ones we love. Narrated by the multi BAFTA award-winning Sheridan Smith (star of Mrs Biggs and Gavin & Stacey).

Maya Stone is the perfect politician's wife. She supports her husband at every turn. The camera loves her, the country loves her, most of all – he loves her.

As the country heads towards a general election, the Stones are set to take the polls by storm. But when a body is discovered in their back garden, the media spotlight turns its glare on the couple who had it all.

As their picture-perfect life starts to unravel, Jeremy claims it’s nothing more than political foul-play. But when Jeremy is formally arrested, Maya finds herself at the centre of a web lies that stretches far beyond her worst nightmare.

With no one to turn to, and each ally an enemy, Maya begins tugging at a truth so devastating it will come to re-define everything she knew and everyone she loved.

Because some lies will push even the most devoted wife to do the most unspeakable acts.

Featuring a supporting cast, including: Rupert Darley, Luke Francis, Simon Harvey, Mark Holgate, Daphne Kouma, Geoff Leesley, Gina Murray, Alisdair Simpson, Ashley Tucker and George Weightman

Thoroughly enjoyed this book, the story line and the narration. Would definitely recommend. I wasn't expecting the twist at the end either.

Fab narration.

Sheriff Smith narrates very well. An interesting story, if not slightly predictable and annoying at times. Still does not detract from the overall experience. Worth a listen.

Good twist
