The Pocket Wife

A Novel

De: Susan Crawford

Narrado por: Cassandra Campbell

A stylish psychological thriller with the compelling intrigue of The Silent Wife and Turn of Mind and the white-knuckle pacing of Before I Go to Sleep—in which a woman suffering from bipolar disorder cannot remember if she murdered her friend.

Dana Catrell is shocked when her neighbor Celia is brutally murdered. To Dana’s horror, she was the last person to see Celia alive. Suffering from mania, the result of her bipolar disorder, she has troubling holes in her memory, including what happened on the afternoon of Celia’s death.

Her husband’s odd behavior and the probing of Detective Jack Moss create further complications as she searches for answers. The closer she comes to piecing together the shards of her broken memory, the more Dana falls apart. Is there a murderer lurking inside her . . . or is there one out there in the shadows of reality, waiting to strike again?

A story of marriage, murder, and madness, The Pocket Wife explores the world through the foggy lens of a woman on the edge.

Captivating

the best novel I have read. wonderful excited kept me on the edge of my seat I couldn't stop listening

Didn't care for whiny performance

The story was okay- your typical murder mystery- but the performance nearly made me stop listening. Just too whiny and airy for my nerves to handle.

Sooooo long

The storyline was good, but the author took so long to get there. I didn't think it was worth the listen

Good summer read

Great story, kept my interest easily. Very nice narration as well. Worth a read this summer!

Quite a mystery. Not a typical novel

Limited dialogue through the majority of the novel. This lack of dialogue makes it difficult at times to move forward. If it wasn't for wanting to know who did it, I would not have finished.
