About this listen

The instant Sunday Times bestselling debut novel

This audiobook contains an exclusive Q&A between Sheila Atim and the author.

ONLINE RUMOURS. REAL LIFE TROUBLE.

Ola Olajide, a high-profile journalist, is marrying the love of her life in one month's time. Young, beautiful, successful – she and her fiancé Michael seem to have it all.

That is, until one morning when they both wake up to the same message:

‘Oh my god, have you seen The List?’

It began as a list of anonymous allegations about abusive men. Now it has been published online. Ola made her name breaking exactly this type of story. She would usually be the first to cover it, calling for the men to be fired. Except today, Michael’s name is on there.

With their future on the line, Ola gives Michael an ultimatum to prove his innocence by their wedding day, but will the truth of what happened change everything for both of them?

Good read. Would have liked to know more about the other characters. A great holiday book . The performance was excellent. The book missed moments and just jumped you into moments without explanation. But enjoyed it still

I loved this book and initially did not think I would be interested.. but it was a fantastic book to listen to. I really enjoyed the two perspectives, and as wild as it was, the ending was unexpected. However, I could imagine that happening in reality

Gripping and thought-provoking

Definitely one of the best stories I’ve listened to! My family are glad I’m finished as they can stop hearing about Ola and Michael and all my theories ! 🤣 can’t wait to check out other work by the author and I must say the narrators both did a wonderful job, really really enjoyed this!
