About this listen

It’s Always the Husband… unless it’s the best friend.

The Top 10 Sunday Times bestseller

‘A page-turning whodunnit that will speak to anyone who's ever had a frenemy’
Ruth Ware

‘A gripping, tangled web of a novel — it pulls you in and doesn’t let you go. I loved it!’
Shari Lapena

Kate, Aubrey and Jenny are inseparable at college – friends who promised they’d always be there for each other.

But twenty years later, their friendship is about to take a deadly turn.

Kate married the gorgeous party boy, Aubrey married up, and Jenny married the boy next door, but when one of the friends dies in shocking circumstances, will everyone assume that it’s always the husband? Or could it be the best friend?

It’s Always The Husband is the gripping debut which will keep you guessing until the very last page.

In love with Michelle Campbell all over again. I have never hated a heroine so much probably in my whole life. The End was so so satisfying, im walking around with a calm smile right now

Justice Served. Beautiful Narrator

A refreshingly different thriller , well crafted story with all the twists you could want. I really could not put this book down

Hooked from page one

Not any great surprises here... a slow unwinding if not very likeable characters and the interactions between them.

Average

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Not the best book I’ve read, the storyline was at points very unbelievable. It wasn’t a bad listen but it certainly wasn’t a great listen.

Some good parts but some bad

I started off.. not really feeling the narrator's voice.. but decided to persevere! so glad I did!! brilliant story! great narrator. listened at every opportunity! Kept thinking I knew who was the killer.. but nooo!! Such a good ending that I did not guess!! excellent!

A "Whodunit" to the very end!
