Resumen del Editor

Pop music blares from the radio. She sings drunkenly from the backseat. The thrash of windscreen wipers against the driving rain. The screech of tires. A thud.

Naomi and I are best friends.

School runs, dog walks, a shoulder to cry on over a glass of wine - we’re inseparable.

But now my husband has walked out, I need her more than ever.

I know she will help me pick up the pieces.

Because she knows about the lie I told to protect her.

She knows how much I’ve sacrificed for this friendship.

And she’d never let anyone hurt me.

Would she?

This extraordinary novel will suck you in from the very first moment and keep you gripped until the breathtaking finale. Fans of The Wife Between Us, The Girl Before, and Gone Girl will adore this twisted tale of toxic female friendship.

Very Intense Psyco-Drama

Wow. What a story and what a conclusion. Shocking, yet not, for its portrayal in many ways is very real. This could be about a neighbor across the street or the girl next door, walking and talking like a regular person, but hiding private pain and horrors within.

Engaging enough

I didn’t dislike it yet I wouldn’t put in in my favorites either. It was a toxic friendship that would have ended for me after the first dog encounter. Sophie was not a good friend at all and around every corner she proved that over and over. A true friend doesn’t do sketchy crap to you to make you be her friend. So by the end it didn’t really surprise me how it would go. I actually thought it would be a Thelma and Louise situation. Sadly no one won in this story. Although it was slow in some areas, but it held my interest.

Started out well but half way thru...

At first I liked the book but about 3/4 of the way thru it started to get silly and unrealistic. I almost stopped listening but I forged on until the end...I wish I could give a better review but I can’t, it was disappointing:(

Kept me riveted all the way through.

Unputdownable. Great story with twists and turns all the way through. A great performance from the narrator.

great listen

this story really takes you on their journey, too close to how life can take some wild turns,
and you can regret them for the rest of your life.

to friendship😀

great book. it only took me two days to read as I couldn't stop listening. narrator was ok although at times she sounded a little bored.. was a great story of troubled friendship, love and mental illness. was very well written and kept me interested throughout the whole story. will defiantly read more by this author

too long

started out fine with some unexpected twists and turn. but then became boring and repetitious. Author went too far in some areas

Scary-crazy

Listening to this story was like watching a train wreck in slow motion. A cliche for sure (my description, not the book),but I really can’t think of a more fitting description. There was a constant sense of foreboding that kept getting more and more intense as the story went on. It gave me a bad feeling and I kept checking the time hoping the story would be over soon. Not that it was bad, but just because I wanted the feeling of dread to go away!

wonderful!

reader was great. intriguing story. would like to listen to another one her books. Irresistible.

Thrilling

This book was amazing. Thrilling and spooky. Listened to it every chance I had. Couldn’t get enough.
