Summary

From Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen, the authors of the top ten bestseller The Wife Between Us, comes The Golden Couple–a compelling psychological thriller that will keep you guessing to the very end.

Marissa and Mathew Bishop seem like the golden couple, until Marissa cheats. She wants to repair things – both because she loves her husband, and for the sake of their eight-year old son. After a friend forwards an article about Avery, Marissa takes a chance on this maverick therapist, who lost her licence due to controversial methods.

If Avery Chambers can’t fix you in ten sessions, she won’t take you on as a client. She helps people overcome everything, from anxiety to domineering parents. Her successes almost help her absorb the emptiness she feels since her husband’s death.

When the Bishops glide through Avery’s door, all three are immediately set on a collision course. Because the biggest secrets in the room are still hidden, and it’s no longer simply a marriage that’s in danger.

Masterly, suspenseful and hugely enjoyable

The writers do a a brilliant job in crafting an absorbing and twisty plot in the realm of the rich and their therapists. Avery is a great character. I hope to meet her again. This book distracted and entertained me perfectly when dealing with a stressful situation and for that alone I thank the writers and narrators.

I finished cause I started simply put

As far as thrillers go not that great. I only finished cause I started. Characters were average and I guessed the plot so no actual surprise there. Book didn't leave me wanting more and when it was finished it was like oh well finished. If you looking for book that grips you and keeps you on the edge this is not the one lm afraid.

An enjoyable easy listen

A well thought through story with good narration. I looked forward every day to settling in, in the evening, to find out if the story developed how I thought it might.

More about Avery please!

As other reviewers have written, this book is really made by Avery. Unflinching, resilient, but without the irritating cliched tropes of the “strong woman” (every man in her life hasn’t been utterly vile to her, for example). She’s smart, but not infallible, unsentimental and a bit bossy. I like her!

Absolutely loved it! No complaints at all

The Wife Between Us was always going to be a tough act to follow, and I don’t feel that any of their subsequent works have been as good. Until this. Brilliant brilliant book, from start to finish! Bravo Greer & Sarah 👏🏻

Great story but..

Really enjoyed the book, but always a bit sad that guns have to be a feature.
