His First Wife

De: Sue Watson

Narrado por: Polly Edsell

My perfect man is married. And his wife is missing. Can I really trust him—or am I next?

Sophie wasn’t expecting to find love in Sicily. But then she sees him: Emilio, a professor who works at the university where she is teaching for the summer. He’s kind, intelligent, funny, exciting and deliriously unpredictable…

…maybe perfect.

But paradise quickly turns to purgatory as she uncovers the haunting disappearance of Emilio’s first wife. And when she senses a shadowy character following her, watching her every move, Sophie starts to question her grip on reality. Is she being paranoid, or is nothing about her new life really what it seems?

As further shocking revelations about Emilio’s past surface, Sophie knows one thing for certain: someone is trying to warn her away from him. But is that someone just jealous, or is Sophie caught in a lethal trap?

storyline

Could just be me, but I didn't like how sometimes the audio sound/volume changed. It was like it was spliced in.
Storyline was entertaining. Had you guessing who the culprit was.

Slow burn

It kept my interest enough. Secrets. Lies, and classic who done it? Emilio was forgettable and the author did not set up his character enough to make him likeable nor unlikable. He was an after thought.

His First Wife

Story was good but thought it was too long. Too many people against the main character.

Just Ok

Not her best work. I very seldom dislike every character in a book, but this was the exception

The storyline

I just liked the story and the narrator thanks so very much for having this on the list
