Summary
 Deep in the woods, you can hide more than secrets...

Every day, in a remote cabin hidden deep in the woods in the Scottish Highlands, Mary wakes up before dawn to make breakfast from scratch. She tends the garden and feeds the animals. Every night, Mary makes sure she has dinner on the table for when her husband Cal gets home from work.

She puts on his favourite lipstick and greets him with a smile. 'I've missed you.' It's not true and he knows it. But he likes to hear it all the same.

Mary is the perfect wife and like any good wife she knows her job is to keep her husband happy.

But lately as she notices her first wrinkles appear, she can sense Cal change. A scowl at dinner not being ready on time, a too tight grip as he leads her to the bedroom tells her he's noticed too. And old memories are coming back too, of her life before the cabin...

Then she finds a stack of letters hidden under the floorboards detailing a life eerily similar to her own. They're addressed to her: 'To the next woman.'

If she's not the first to play the role of Cal's perfect wife, what happened to the woman in the cabin before her? And how long does she have until she is next? Psychological Suspense Thriller & Suspense Marriage Exciting Scary Highlander

Wow — very intense! This audiobook kept me on the edge of my seat the whole way through. Full of twists and turns, with strong characters that made the story feel real and compelling. The narration was excellent, adding even more depth and emotion. I hadn’t heard of the author before, but I’ll definitely be looking out for more of their books.

Gripping and intense

The was an emotional intimacy in this book. I was drawn by the way it demonstrated how being attracted to what a person initially presents to us can fool us into a false sense of security that can lead to a very unsafe life path.

I was addictively pulled inside the protagonist's mind. I really cared about her. Also, the narrator was perfection.

As my title says, this is a good book but a bit daft in places. It’ll keep you turning the pages as there’s enough intrigue to keep you interested, but be prepared to be utterly frustrated at the main character! Her decision making (and the timing of said decisions) is ludicrous. And thus becomes a little too far fetched and unconvincing.
But even as I write that, I still think it’s an enjoyable book if you just go with it and switch off your brain for a bit.

A bit daft but still good
