Wife, Mother, Liar

De: Sue Watson

Narrado por: Tamsin Kennard, Bronwen Price

An absolutely addictive and totally gripping psychological thriller with a breathtaking twist

Someone is lying. Someone knows the truth. Someone is going to pay...

Wife: I couldn’t be prouder of my charming husband and quiet and kind son. I’ve poured everything into my little family, so I choose to ignore my husband’s late-night phone calls and wandering eye. I won’t let anything ruin my perfect life…

Mother: I tried so hard to have a baby, so when my precious little boy was born, I vowed to do anything to protect him. Now a teenager, he’s making his own decisions, like getting close to my best friend Jill’s daughter. Looking smart in a brand-new navy suit, I watch as he leaves for prom with her. I may be smiling, but inside my head I’m screaming at him to stay away from her…

Liar: Hours later, as flashing police lights slice the darkness around my house, my worst nightmare becomes a reality, and my perfect world comes crashing down. Can I trust anyone at all? My husband hasn’t been truthful, my best friend has been hiding something from me, and my son isn’t as innocent as I thought. But none of their secrets compares to the one I’ve been keeping…

It started with a lie. It will end in murder…

Gripped you till the very end

This is the 4th book from Sue Watson that I have listened to. She generally have a style in all her books, where the main character is always weak and indecisive and there is always a flamboyant loud beautiful woman as a friend / cousin etc, I have to admit that this book has amazing twist (some are predictable, some knocked the wind outta me). I love that most of the book centered around conversations, imaginations and putting together a jigsaw puzzle, it is quite genius actually. I would say this is my favourite book out of all the books I have listened to by this author.

Also, as always, Tamsin Kennard did an wonderful narration, this is the first time I have listened to Bronwen Price and she doesn't disappoint. Mixing great plot, twists and amazing narration makes this a very good purchase.

Shocking twist

My second read from this author, I'm hooked. Fantastic twists I never saw coming!

Did not see that coming!

Just when I thought I had it all sorted out… bam! Total twist I didn’t expect.

Very suspenseful

This book kept me interested and the narrator was great ! There were so many twist and turns and stuff you think you got figured out hits you with out comes you never could have seen !!

The twists!!!!!

As an empath my heart ached through this entire story but the unravelling twists at the end were so gratifying

Two Families Best of Friends or True Enemies

I liked the story, although somewhat predictable. Character development is happening while the mystery and tense anticipation of who died is finally revealed. Small morsels of the truth are revealed until the final big one. Although that was predictable everything else that comes to light with it is really the wow ending.

Narration by both was really good. They were excellent at bringing their characters to life as well as their secondary cast!!

Love this author.

Great book. Worth the credit. I’ve listened to about 5 books from this author. This one is not at the top of my charts from her but still worth the listen.

Many Twists and Turns!

Great story, character development, and the way Frida McFadden writes is unmatched! Narrations were sure. Many plot twists - some I never saw coming. Loved this book!

Nothing

Slow. No twist, not a thriller. Didn’t like. I don’t need to add 15 words

Wife, Mother, Liar, Disappointment!

I usually enjoy Sue Watson's books but this title was a disappointment.

The book's two protagonists were whiney and pace was tediously S-L-O-W.

(Not a good combo!)

The book unfolded from two POVs and multiple timelines and this was dizzying.

As usual, Tamsin Kennard's narration was superb.

Bronwen Price's narration was subpar.
