À propos de cet audio

The number one international best-selling author of Pretty Little Wife returns with another thrilling domestic suspense novel that asks, how many wives and girlfriends need to disappear before your family notices?

Elisa Wright is a mom and wife, living a nice, quiet life in a nice, quiet town. She’s also convinced her brother-in-law is a murderer. Josh has one dead wife and one missing fiancée, and though he grieved for them he starts dating someone new. Elisa fears for that woman’s safety, and she desperately wants to know what happened to her friend, Josh’s missing fiancée.

Searching for clues means investigating her own family. And she doesn’t like what she finds. A laptop filled with incriminating information. Other women.

But when Elisa becomes friends with Josh’s new girlfriend and starts to question things she thinks are true, Elisa wonders if the memories of a horrible incident a year ago have finally pushed her over the edge and Josh is really innocent. With so much at stake, Elisa fights off panic attacks and a strange illness. Is it a breakdown or something more? The race is on to get to the truth before another disappearance because there’s a killer in the family…or is there?

I wanted to love this book…I really did try. I listened to the entire book hoping for some sort of twist but it didn’t match my expectations. I have to agree with another review that it is quite repetitive. It was ok but nothing great. I have to say I did like the Narrator and the way she whispered the thoughts. Made the book slightly more enjoyable.

I was a little harsh in my original thoughts about this book. I wanted to like it and was so disappointed. It didn’t work for me, I found it far too repetitive in that way where we are always being reminded about the stakes, or about what the main character’s stance on something is. It doesn’t develop the plot or the character and in audio format is hard to ‘skim’ over the dull parts without risking missing something.

Narration was okay, except for the male voices. Narrator tried to deepen their voice too much and came off extremely cartoonish.

Atmosphere is claustrophobic, confusing, very in the MC’s mind (suitable for the plot).

The MC is annoying in that way where they put themselves in dumb situations or put up with obvious red flags, and it relies too heavily on the husband not believing the wife trope, so she doubts herself rather than looking at the facts and holding him accountable. There’s also villain monologue and I found it predictable, so that added to the feeling of many scenes being tedious and unnecessary.

Rated R for repetitiveness
