About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Sorry.

Beth Lomas thought she knew her late husband. But this one small word, written on the back of a discarded envelope and left on their kitchen table, convinces the police that Oscar took his own life. As the police announce they are not seeking anyone else in connection with Oscar's death, Beth is convinced that there is more to the story.

As she sets out to discover what really happened, Beth uncovers shocking truths about the man she thought she knew better than anyone. In their small town, it seems like every stone she turns hides an ugly secret, and it's not long before her own dark past begins to rise to the surface.

What His Wife Knew is an enthralling mystery concerned with what it means to love and the importance of female friendship in the face of the darkest situations life can throw at us.

I have persevered up to chapter 35 and with 3.5 hours left, I’m throwing in the towel. I would have given-up long before now if it weren’t for me having loved Jo Jakeman’s previous two novels. They were both 5* reads/listens, so I persevered thinking I must be missing something. Unfortunately, for me, this one is dull. I just can’t engage with any of the characters and I find the storyline weak. Sadly, I will return this one.

Not engaging at all for me!
