À propos de cet audio

A devious tale of psychological suspense so irresistible that it prompts Entertainment Weekly to ask, “Is The Kind Worth Killing the next Gone Girl?” From one of the hottest new thriller writers, Peter Swanson, a name you may not know yet (but soon will), this is his breakout novel in the bestselling tradition of Paula Hawkins’ The Girl on the Train—now a major movie directed by Agnieszka Holland.

In a tantalizing set-up reminiscent of Patricia Highsmith’s classic Strangers on a Train… On a night flight from London to Boston, Ted Severson meets the stunning and mysterious Lily Kintner. Sharing one too many martinis, the strangers begin to play a game of truth, revealing very intimate details about themselves. Ted talks about his marriage that’s going stale and his wife Miranda, who he’s sure is cheating on him. Ted and his wife were a mismatch from the start—he the rich businessman, she the artistic free spirit—a contrast that once inflamed their passion, but has now become a cliché.

But their game turns a little darker when Ted jokes that he could kill Miranda for what she’s done. Lily, without missing a beat, says calmly, “I’d like to help.” After all, some people are the kind worth killing, like a lying, stinking, cheating spouse. . . .

Back in Boston, Ted and Lily’s twisted bond grows stronger as they begin to plot Miranda's demise. But there are a few things about Lily’s past that she hasn’t shared with Ted, namely her experience in the art and craft of murder, a journey that began in her very precocious youth.

Suddenly these co-conspirators are embroiled in a chilling game of cat-and-mouse, one they both cannot survive . . . with a shrewd and very determined detective on their tail.

Very well narrated. Suspenseful storyline which I couldn’t stop listening to. Lots of twist and turns and you didn’t know where the story was going which was awesome and kept me at the edge of my seat.

I unintentionally read these books out of order and I guess I was expecting a bit more for the Characters origin story. but overall I enjoyed it and the pacing

Decent enough origin

I started this book because I’d listened to everything else read by Kathleen Early and she’s my favourite reader. The story was well written and took so many turns. The ending literally had my jaw on the floor.

THAT CLIFFHANGER!!!

For Harper Collin’s, this audio was terrible. It sounded like they recorded it on a microphone. The story was incredible, though. So many unexpected twists.
