Publisher's Summary
Annie comes home from a market trip with her young son, George, only to make a gruesome discovery. Could the perpetrator be the new lodger she and her husband, David, just rented their spare bedroom to?
Emily dreams of one day owning a house where her son, Josh, and the little one on the way can grow up, but when her husband, Aidan, insists on leaving his lucrative job as a luxury car salesman, she senses something more is afoot - even while she harbours a secret of her own. What is Aidan hiding, and will it jeopardize their young family’s future?
Meanwhile, Aidan’s boss, Marcus, finds himself caught between placating his wife Dani’s all-consuming desire to get pregnant and managing the less than savoury group of associates now helping to run his car dealership. How far is Marcus willing to go to prove his love for Dani? Or will his business come first?
From best-selling author Shalini Boland comes A Perfect Stranger, a domestic thriller that will keep you on your toes until the very end - and force you to question whether you can ever truly know someone.

Good mystery!
I really enjoyed this good mystery written by Shalini Boland, and narrated well by Tamsin Kennard, Alison Campbell, and Ciaran Saward. It's great story with well-rounded characters, and I loved the settings. I will look for more of Shalini's work!

Good Story Line
Good Story Line and parts where you want to keep listening to see if your guess of what happens is correct. I did figure out the ending before I was finished but the story still makes you want to keep going just in case there's a twist. And there is.

twists and Turns
This book took me on many twists and turns with a surprise ending. . I read another one of this authors books, that is why I knew I would love this one. But still, the two books were different. certainly I will purchase more.

Satisfactory Book. Rubbish Pacing.
Shalini Boland writes incredibly realistic, flawed characters. Her prose/vocabulary is capable, her description skills are creditable, and her dialogue is remarkably true-to-life. Unfortunately, 'A Perfect Stranger' is notably mundane until we approach the climax of the story. Day-to-day relationship struggles, conflicting personalities, secret addictions, and struggles to get pregnant are frankly pretty ho-hum. Boland holds off on revelations as the story progresses and almost ignores foreshadowing (besides the disappointing telegraphing of the biggest plot twist) - counting on a harrowing prologue to get readers interested in the tale to come. Sadly, it isn't enough. The climactic/post-climactic twists are worth the investment in patience.. but the first ⅔ of the book is a legitimate slog.
Fortunately for audiobook fans, the cast of readers (Alison Campbell, Tamsin Kennard, and Ciaran Saward) is exceptional. Their professional narration skills and spot-on voice-acting are matched with an unwavering interested tone. If given the choice between a text version of the book or this recorded iteration, choose this one hands-down.
I rate this Boland effort 5.5 stars out of 10. I feel quite fortunate to have gotten it as a 'Plus' selection.. because it was a serviceable Suspense-Thriller distraction. Paying full price for it, however, would be hard to defend. Better options for your Credit beckon.
