About this listen

An absolutely gripping psychological thriller with a jaw-dropping twist

He always said she was just a friend… What if she’d kill for more?

Sophie is perfect. She has blonde hair and blue eyes and when she smiles her wide, open, caring smile, her teeth sparkle. Everybody loves her. So would I, except she’s my husband Mike’s best friend, and sometimes they seem a little too close for comfort.

This summer, Sophie is renting the grand house next door, bringing over fancy wine, offering to babysit our beautiful three-year-old daughter. It’s nice, actually. She’s smart and funny. Maybe the way she is with Mike–squeezing his arm, tilting her head when she laughs at his jokes–is just how she is with everybody.

But then she says something that sends a shiver down my spine–does she know something about me she shouldn’t?

And when her new husband arrives, looking slightly too familiar, I realise my time is running out. My baby girl and I are in terrible danger.

Sophie really is perfect. She has me perfectly trapped. And as my world begins to crumble, I start to wonder: does Sophie just want to steal my husband, or has she planned the perfect murder?

A thoroughly enjoyable psychological thriller that will keep you up listening late into the night. Perfect for fans of The Housemaid, The Guest List and anything by Louise Candlish, Erin Kelly or TM Logan.

Fantastic!

Don’t waste your time with this book. It’s filled with unnecessary, banal detail and dialogue. Every part of the ‘plot’ is wildly far fetched and doesn’t develop into anything even mildly interesting until around 95% of the way through. The characters are far from credible and even the protagonist is boring & annoying. Yawn!

Boringly mundane
