Winner of an AudioFile Earphones Award

From "master of clever misdirection" (Kirkus Reviews) Aimee Molloy, author of the New York Times best seller The Perfect Mother, comes an irresistible psychological thriller featuring a newly married woman whose life is turned upside-down when her husband goes missing.

Newlyweds Sam Statler and Annie Potter are head over heels, and excited to say goodbye to New York city and start a life together in Sam's sleepy hometown upstate. Or, it turns out, a life where Annie spends most of her time alone while Sam, her therapist husband, works long hours in his downstairs office, tending to the egos of his (mostly female) clientele.

Little does Sam know that through a vent in his ceiling, every word of his sessions can be heard from the room upstairs. The pharmacist's wife, contemplating a divorce. The well-known painter whose boyfriend doesn’t satisfy her in bed. Who could resist listening? Everything is fine until the French girl in the green mini Cooper shows up, and Sam decides to go to work and not come home, throwing a wrench into Sam and Annie's happily ever after.

Showcasing Molloy’s deft ability to subvert norms and culminating in the kind of stunning twist that is becoming her trademark, Goodnight Beautiful is a thrilling tale of domestic suspense that not only questions assumptions but defies expectations.

Misery

This book is Misery with an altered ending. It is an okay book but it’s so unoriginal it’s almost boring. If there was ever a copyright infringement case to be won... this book is it.

An absolute delight!

this book was so un predictable! You thought it was going one way and boom... another! I was so into it I finished in 2 days lol.

Great Until Halfway

The story started out really good, I listened to the first half in about two days, but then all of a sudden I knew exactly how the story would end. Nothing about the 2nd half was really that interesting.

So good!

Took me a minute to understand who was who (reader) but once I did, I was hooked!

Not impressed

I found the characters and story confusing. The main female character sounded “like an old smoker”. The story could have benefitted from more originality instead of copying a well known classic book.

Not What I expected - In a negative way.

Just OK, do not know how it got such a high rating. I found the reader annoying.

WOOOOOOOOOOW!

I've been on a roll with finding great books to read and this title was no exception. I thought I knew what was going on then, I realize I had it all wrong. I wound up starting all over again, thinking I'd missed some key details but found I hadn't so, I continued to read. Whoa! That initial twist caught me off guard and I can't even say what it is because I will not be the one took Silk this awesome book for someone else. There were some jaw-dropping moments in this book and a very familiar aspect that pays homage to another popular title most of us are familiar with. This is another one of those titles I wouldn't mind watching play out on the big screen. Grab your copy now and enjoy the adventure!

So good. SO good.

I was in a ‘good book slump’ and decided to give this one a chance. At first I thought the narrator didn’t match the reader - but couldn’t put it down. There were some parts that made me giggle but also kept me on my toes. Good read.

Amazing story tellers of a thriller

The story tellers did a fabulous job of reading this book. The story is thrilling and keeps you guessing until the very end!

Twisted in every way

Loved the multitude of characters that seemed complicated and had depth. The narrators did a great job!
