Publisher's summary

After a lavish night of guilty pleasures in Monte Carlo, four best friends face an awful morning of arrests - and a fight for survival.

Only minutes after Abbie Elliot and her three best friends step off of a private helicopter, they enter the most luxurious, sumptuous, sensually pampering hotel they have ever been to. Their lavish presidential suite overlooks Monte Carlo, and they surrender: to the sun and pool, to the sashimi and sake, to the Bruno Paillard champagne. As the weekend moves into pulsating discos, high-stakes casinos, and beyond, Abbie is transported to the greatest pleasure and release she has ever known.

In the morning's harsh light, Abbie awakens on a yacht, surrounded by police. Something awful has happened: something impossible, unthinkable. Abbie, Winnie, Serena, and Bryah are arrested and accused of the foulest crime imaginable. And now the vacation of a lifetime becomes the fight of a lifetime - a fight for survival.

Guilty Wives is the ultimate indulgence, the kind of nonstop joy-ride of excess, friendship, betrayal, and danger that only James Patterson can create.

interesting

I struggled to get into this book at first. most of the characters seemed so self centered and one dimensional. and the prison scenes were so horrific. but then it got very interesting and I was totally rooting for Abby

Couldn't Put it Down,...l

What did you love best about Guilty Wives?

OMG! I just finished listening to this today. I couldn't quit listening, no matter what I was doing. So, I pulled out my laptop and played solitaire....and kept listening. Whenever I'm in the car, going for a walk, or just playing solitaire, it's one of the best listens yet. Love you James Patterson!
lI also have audible books by Patterson on my Kindle, so I have two books going all the time. I'm addicted to reading. If you haven't listened to this one, Do it! You won't regret the length of time it takes to set the twist. Honest!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Guilty Wives?

The climax. Won't tell you.

Which scene was your favorite?

First look at Monte Carlo.

Great mystery/thriller but predictable ending

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, it is a great mystery but not too dark. I've listened to other Audiobooks by the same narrator and she is a favourite of mine so that makes it enjoyable as well.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Absolutely. While I predicted the ending early on in the story there was still enough going on to keep me on my seat. It was an Audiobook I listened to every day so that says something

Which scene was your favorite?

Towards the end when Abbie discovers the truth about everything was probably the most suspenseful and memorable.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not particularly

Any additional comments?

First time reading James Patterson and will certainly try another, really enjoyed this Audiobook!

Think twice before a girl's night out.

Four woman, (all married), go for a girl's vacation in Europe. A night of fun, leads to months of hell. Really enjoyed this book. The writer really made you feel as if you were experiencing what the characters were. Great read, good mystery.
