Story
Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening, her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face and then never speaks another word. Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety.

Loved this, loved the twists and turns. It's the kind of book that makes you wonder what the characters are up to when you're not there.

I discovered that literally everything I thought I knew was wrong, or the truth had been skewed into something unrecognizable. Many parts of this are "hard to hear" but I learned. Many parts I had to listen to several times to truly grasp. Very grateful for this book, the author and the reader..

What an interesting experience to "listen" to a book previously read. This book has so much detail and moves so quickly I was concerned that would be lost but it was excellent. Nice nice job by the narrator, thank you!
