À propos de cet audio

 As seen on the TODAY show as “a perfect beach read.”

Three lifelong friends plus a dangerous, sexy new stranger in town add up to a scorching summer of manipulation, obsession, and murder, from the bestselling author of The Hunting Wives.

A woman in the forest thinks she’s going to die.
I know he’s coming back for me.

Jen Hansen, Kittie Spears, and Cynthia Nichols have been friends since childhood. They are now approaching forty and their lives have changed, but their insular East Texas town has not. They stay sane by drinking wine in the afternoons, dishing about other women in the neighborhood, and bonding over the heartache of their own encroaching middle age and raising ungrateful teens.

Then Will Harding comes to town, moving into one of the neighborhood’s grandest homes. Mysterious and charming, he seems like the answer to each woman’s prayers. He’s a source of fascination for Jen, Kittie, and Cynthia, but none of them are ready for the way Will disrupts their lives.

As Will grows closer with each of the women, their fascination twists into obsession, threatening their friendships and their families. When he abruptly pulls away, each woman scrambles to discover the source of his affection. But what they’ll uncover is far more sinister and deadly than any of them could have ever imagined.

So it starts off interesting enough. Who is Will? Is Jen going to find happiness ?

Things quickly go off the rails y’all. First thing that’s not the authors fault; Will’s voice sounds like Count Dracula. The three narrators do a great job with their own character voices, pleasant and full of southern charm. But whoever gave those voice actors direction on how to make Will sound “European” erred greatly. It ruined the book because Will sounds like a bad Eastern European mob boss.

Next the authors choices. Why is Will even from Europe? Why is Jen so incredibly whiny the whole time? Why is Cynthia so flat and then boom has all of this plot that comes out of nowhere? And Kitty’s alcoholism is overblown. If you had a nickel for every time wine is mentioned in this book you’d have enough to ride this subway for a week.

I still finished it though. So it was somewhat engaging.

No one is likeable, alert spoilers.
