About this listen

When a restaurateur and serial philanderer turns up stone-cold dead, his trio of exes falls under suspicion in a sharp-witted and suspenseful short story by the New York Times bestselling author of Darling Girls.

Celebrity chef Ian Curley is found dead in his walk-in freezer. The prime suspects are his three ex-wives, who meet up every Friday evening in their favorite corner booth of his restaurant. It’s a tradition for Anita, Mary-Jane, and Rosie to drink, dine, and commiserate. But commit murder? All aggrieved, each one has a motive and an alibi. And a brilliant detective has reservations. Who did it? The night will tell.

Sally Hepworth’s The Ex-Wives Club is part of Alibis, a collection of stories about lies, truth, and deception. It’s just a matter of what you can get away with. They can be read or listened to in one sitting.

A short story in the alibis collection.

I had the audiobook read by Anthea Greco who managed a good range of voices.

I must say I’m not a big fan of short stories and wouldn’t buy them even as a collection. But as a favourite author and available on KU I was happy to give it a try.

There are quite a lot of characters in this short story including several ex wives, offspring and plenty of disgruntled people then the investigating police officers.

Obviously alibis play an important part of the story.
I enjoyed it, although I’m not sure about the ending.
