Summary

She’s on trial for murder… Now it’s her turn to tell her story…

The truth is that I loved James with my whole heart. We were soulmates: meant to be together forever. On the morning of our wedding, I had just found out I was carrying his child.

But it’s time to tell my side of the story. It’s time everyone knew what happened on that wedding day, on our honeymoon, and on that fateful last drive together. It’s time everyone found out about the secrets and about the threat that loomed over our marriage. It’s time everyone found out who really killed James.

And I need everyone to believe me. To believe I’m not a killer. Because if they don’t, then my baby won’t just have no father…she’ll have no mother.

A totally gripping psychological thriller full of jaw-dropping twists, that will keep you up listening late into the night. If you loved Gone Girl, The Mother-in-Law and The Housemaid, you’ll be hooked on The Bride.

Bit of a disappointment

I love John Nicholl usually, but I struggled with this, three quarters of the book is boring - i stuck with it because it was a John Nicholl book, and i kept thinking it would suddenly take off, unfortunately that didn’t happen until the very last chapter, just too long a listen to get to the good bit.

Loved it!

Brilliant writing, quality narration, subtle, clever, and full of twists with a shock ending. Highly recommended for fans of psychological thrillers. I loved it!

Boring

Love the other books have read by him but seemed to be a lot of words without saying much this time. Dragged on and on. Padded out with unnecessary information on surroundings, actions, feelings and a lot of waiting for any actual substance so quite frustrating tbh. Narrator was decent though.
