About this listen

You’d be lost without her....

She’s the shoulder you cry on when the father of your children disappears.
She’s the person you turn to when he comes back, begging for forgiveness.
She’s by your side when you discover his guilty secrets.
She helps rock your babies to sleep when they cry.
She’s your friend when you have no one else.
She’s the woman upstairs, whose feet you hear treading above as you drift off at night, thankful you aren’t alone.

But what if you’re about to lose everything because of her? One of the most twisted, shocking, heart-stopping psychological thrillers ever! Fans of K.L. Slater, The Wife Between Us, and The Girl on the Train, prepare to be kept up way past your bedtime.

It was ok to start but I have to say I do agree with some of the other reviewers that it was a bit long winded and I was willing it to end! Ok to listen on the plane for a ‘dozing’ story!!!!!

Easy listening for a plane journey!

It was a good listen, there were some unexpected twists to the plot. I feel some of the other reviews are quite unfair, so I wouldn’t necessarily be put off by them.

Worth a listen

Loved it, couldn't put it down and was trying to work it out all through, going to look for next book by her.

Great read

Shouted more at this than my husband does at the football on TV. Factually very incorrect!

Not one for Midwives..
