About this listen

Author of The Mermaid of Black Conch, Rathbone Folio Prize 2021 longlisted, Winner of the Costa Best Novel Award 2020 and Winner of the Costa Book of the Year 2020.

London, midsummer night. Jane and Bill meet the mysterious Lilah in a bar. She entrances the couple with half-true, mixed-up tales about her life. At closing time, Jane makes an impulsive decision to invite Lilah back to their home. But Jane has made a catastrophic error of judgement, for Lilah is a skilled and ruthless predator, the likes of which few encounter in a lifetime. Isolated and cursed, Jane and Bill are forced to fight for each other, and, in doing so, discover their covert desires.

Part psychological thriller, part contemporary magical realism, The Tryst revisits the tale of Adam's first wife, Lilith, to examine the secrets of an everyday marriage.

This story is only just over 5 and 1/2 hours long , so gobbled it up in any spare time I had over 2 days … listening in the car and at home … a mini break from daily jobs …it requires full attention ….
Fantastic plot with Monique’s sprinkle of fairy folk magic and some lusty scenes to witness almost as a voyeur ….
I wonder how many safe and ‘comfy’ married folk might squirm a little to recognise a bit of themselves in Jane …I loved it ! 🤗

Gripping yarn !
