From the global no.1 bestselling author of We Play Games and Secret Sister comes a dark and twisted psychological thriller about loyalty, betrayal, and the lengths we'll go to protect the ones we love. Narrated by the multi BAFTA award-winning Sheridan Smith (star of Mrs Biggs and Gavin & Stacey).

Maya Stone is the perfect politician's wife. She supports her husband at every turn. The camera loves her, the country loves her, most of all – he loves her.

As the country heads towards a general election, the Stones are set to take the polls by storm. But when a body is discovered in their back garden, the media spotlight turns its glare on the couple who had it all.

As their picture-perfect life starts to unravel, Jeremy claims it’s nothing more than political foul-play. But when Jeremy is formally arrested, Maya finds herself at the centre of a web lies that stretches far beyond her worst nightmare.

With no one to turn to, and each ally an enemy, Maya begins tugging at a truth so devastating it will come to re-define everything she knew and everyone she loved.

Because some lies will push even the most devoted wife to do the most unspeakable acts.

Never saw that coming!

I love when an author makes me love a character then hate them then pity them then love them then hate them all over. I also love a good twist! This book definitely has a lot to love if you also love these things!

kept you guessing.

This really captivated me from the very first chapter all the way to the last'. I simply couldn't stop listening!

The cliffhanger

This story flowed nicely. I was hooked after chapter 1.
That cliffhanger added just the right touch of sinister.

The mystery

I liked the story twist. I didn’t like the profanity. It wasn’t necessary to the story.

Narrator

This was so good! I randomly picked this cause I was tired of paying for extra credits. Such a good listen and shocked me all the way through! Great narration!
