Tell Me You Trust Me

De: Elle Owens

Narrado por: Megan Tusing

In a twisty and provocative thriller debut, Elle Owens tells the story of a young mother whose husband vanishes without a trace, and their shared playlist holds the only key to bringing him back.

When her husband goes missing, Marissa Creighton fears the worst. Tell me you trust me was the last thing Ethan said to her, and she’d shrugged it off. Now she can’t get those words out of her head.

Marissa’s family has always been her rock. But when they come to help her with eighteen-month-old Logan, their overprotectiveness borders on oppression—occupational hazard of the family’s surveillance business, or is it? Seeking comfort in the playlist she and Ethan share, Marissa is shocked to find a new song there: “Trust Me.” She’s certain it’s a message.

Using song titles as code, she and Ethan start communicating back and forth. But she still doesn’t understand why he left. While his messages point to incriminating documents, her family uncovers evidence of an affair. But their discoveries come with their own baggage, including personal threats, secret bank accounts, and dusty surveillance devices. All the while Marissa wonders whether she’ll ever learn the truth—or see her husband again.

pretty good

I enjoyed the listen but the protagonist was annoyingly naive at times which was frustrating but I liked it overall

AMAZING

I LOVED this book so much! I had to listen to the audiobook so I wouldn’t spoil it for myself. I could not believe the ending. I can not wait for her next book!

Listened in one sitting!

If this is Elle Owen’s’ debit novel I cannot WAIT to read more! I was hooked by this story & the characters!

Fast paced with lots of twists

Overall I really enjoyed this. It was fast paced and kept me guessing until the very end. I did not see the ending coming.

Suspenseful

It was a decent suspense read but the main character was a little annoying. She was constantly chewing the inside of her cheek or lip. This might be a common gesture but it seemed excessive. She seemed way too dependent on parents as an adult child.
