Resumen del Editor

What if your worst enemy discovered your darkest secret?

At 2:00 a.m. on the morning of her 40th birthday, Sophie wakes in the darkness of her bedroom and finds a stranger watching her from the foot of the bed.

The intruder hands Sophie a letter and issues an ultimatum: the message is to be opened at her forthcoming party, in front of family and friends, at exactly 8:00 p.m. Any failure to comply will not end well.

Sophie can think of only one person who hates her enough to have hired a professional to menace her like this: her fiancé's ex-wife. What can the letter possibly contain? And why must it be read in front of everyone she loves? This will be no ordinary 40th party.

Sophie is not the only person holding a secret about the evening ahead. When the clock strikes eight, the course of several people's lives will be altered forever.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Julie Maisey's gripping narration is as compelling as Dawson's unusual mystery.... Hearing the sensational conclusion will rival any high-octane movie." ( AudioFile)

Good mystery/drama

Great mystery right up to the end. End sort of leaves you hanging. Still pretty good, not everything is wrapped up in a package every time.

Amazing plot twists well done Lucy Dawson

This is the first book I’ve read by Lucy Dawson and all I can say is wow, the characters are so well crafted it feels like someone you’d actually know. Julie Maisey did a wonderful job with the french and French accents throughout the entire story and her vocal range is great. I try to make my audible books last but I finished this in two days time because I was positively hooked. There are so many silly bits in the beginning that give comedic relief before the thrilling bits pick up definitely worth the credit!

Unsatisfying ending

Good plot with some twists, although it did drag a bit pre-wedding, and I'm not sure why the ex was brought in briefly. I didn't care for the ending, though. It was way too abrupt, with no real closure in regards to the kids. Good narration. I just always prefer a tidy ending.

could not put this down

I experienced so much anxiety reading this book. I could not figure out who was torturing the protagonist and it was AGONY getting to the end. very well written and performed

fantastic

fantastic. one of her best books. read this if you like her others. it has

Once a cheat, always a cheat.

Served her right! It was fun, but the ending was predictable. I was hoping for a super twist ending. Oh well, it was better than of most of the audio books I've listened to lately.

Disappointed

I couldn't stop listening. But it lost steam in the end. I was like the writter had to finish quick and so the story was choppy at the end.

Good but not her best

I wouldn't say you'd be wasting a credit or anything by getting this book but this one just didn't do it for me like most of her other work. Not bad, just not great.

Great book .. highly recommended

right from the beginning it grabs your attention and hooks you. highly recommended ... I'll be listening to more from this author

Truth or Dare! Who knows your secrets?

Suspenseful, Funny, and Entertaining! I really enjoyed "You Sent Me a Letter." This book is surprisingly funny, with some great laugh-out-loud moments. The story took place over a 24-hour period, with frequent look-backs by the main character. Readers will find themselves hooked on the exploits of Sophie while she navigates the huge party surrounding her 40th birthday, what is supposed to be a secret wedding, and a guy she's not altogether sure about- not to mention having received a mystery letter warning her to show up for her big night or else! Sophie thereafter plays a sort of bumper-cars between her family, her best friend, her illicit lover, and her fiance's intensely stressful first wife. I can only describe Sophie's big day, in her experience, as super stressful. I was dying to find out who the letter writer was, and this kept me guessing until the very end, as things were very much not as they seemed.
Julie Maisey did a great job as narrator.
This book bucked the psychological-suspense trend in a pleasing way, and I recommend it as a great way to use your credit!
