Publisher's summary

"The Expat Wife delivers. It’s like a Switzerland vacation on the page. This riveting journey took us to Lucerne and had us glued to the page." —Addison McKnight, author of An Imperfect Plan.

Welcome to Switzerland in winter: Snow upon snow, everywhere to disappear, nowhere to hide...
From the #1 bestselling author of London Bridge is Down comes an atmospheric, twisty and suspenseful mystery set in one of the most beautiful places in the world.

When newlyweds Rose and Wesley Blackwood move from New York City to Lucerne, Switzerland for his new job, they quickly take to expatriate life. What's not to love about this safe, cozy country known for chocolate, cheese, and scenery to die for?

But when Rose's new friend Jacqueline disappears, Rose begins to see an ugly side to this beautiful country-and to her new husband.

Muddled by jetlag and with no one to trust as her marriage deteriorates in an unfamiliar country where she doesn't speak the language, Rose, who was an investigative journalist back in New York, sets out to solve the mystery-and discovers nothing in this bucolic town is what it seems as she uncovers a cascade of terrifying secrets leading to a twist that will leave readers chilled to the bone.

Good Story but the Narration ruins it

Sadly the AI narration is awful, very noticeable and distracted from the story. Otherwise I enjoyed the story and would continue the series if another narration is used for any previous writings.

Distracting

the story line seems good, but the AI narration is HORRIBLE. I can't even finish the book, I am only 4 chapters in, i just cannot get into it due to the emotionless voice, mispronounced wording, etc. I will re-read a hard copy and try to block out this mono AI voice, to keep from ruining the story.
