Summary

We promised to keep each other’s secrets. Until they found the body…

The Wife:

My husband and I are fighting for our lives in hospital after a terrible car accident. But despite my pain, all I can think about is what our families will find behind our front door. The scarf that has been all over the news, belonging to a dead young woman with honey-coloured hair. I have to speak to the police before my husband can…

The Husband:

I’m drifting in and out of consciousness, but when I hear my wife talking to the police, accusing me of the murder of an innocent woman, a cold fear grips me. I know I’ve got a temper. That I’ve not always been faithful. Will they think I killed her?

I think of my wife’s jealous streak, of the lies she’s told our loved ones. But if I tell the whole truth, they’ll look into her past. And that will destroy me, too…

Two people fighting for their lives. Two people with secrets to hide. Who will you believe?

A completely compelling and twisty thriller from number 1 bestselling author K.L. Slater. Fans of Lisa Jewell and Freida McFadden will be hooked by Husband and Wife.

Twisty

A few twists and turns, a little frustrating at points where I wanted to skip over but overall a good listen, finished it in two sittings

Lots of satisfying twists

Excellent characterisation which had me switching allegiances and sympathy throughout. I liked the calmness of the officers next to the emotionality of the families. One of my favourite writers.

Jumping in time to build the story was very well-conceived

It took a while to get me gripped, but certainly got there. Beautifully read by the narrator (Clare Corbett?)
