About this listen

The enthralling new psychological thriller from the best-selling author of The Girl Before.

When Abbie Cullen met Tim Scott, she was a struggling artist and he was the brilliant British cofounder of one of Silicon Valley's most successful start-ups.

Within six months, they were married. But when she promised him in her wedding vows that she would love him forever, she had no idea just how literally he would take it....

I love the work of JP Delaney his stories are always so complex and totally different to anything else out there. This new novel was a great listen a very unusual storyline a nod to Charlie Booker exploring the limits of technology in the near future. Whilst it was clear that the main character was not actually defined as human but and AI it did not stop me from empathising with her and really caring about what would happen to her. I felt that the Autistic strand in the book was dealt with very empathically and the reason for this are made clear by the author at the end. All narrators did a great job bringing the characters to life. I cant wait for the next book !

I loved this book! I did wonder at first but then I was hooked! I invested totally in the main character then. The futuristic side to the story didn’t take away from it being a brilliant psychological thriller.
Recommended completely

Interesting story but not one that I was holding my breath wanting to know all about it.

I chose this rating because it took me a long time to get into the story - a lot longer than usual. The storyline is very different to anything I’ve read before and is an interesting concept. It got better during the last third of the book when everything came together but it took a long time getting there. I don’t think I would recommend it unless you have patience and time on your hands to trial the storyline.

Odd story. Slow to get going.
