I Want You Gone

By: Miranda Rijks

Narrated by: Gemma Dawson

The one obituary you never want to read - is your own.

Laura Swallow is dead. A life cut tragically short, says the newspaper obituary. But that's a lie.

Estate agent Laura did not die in a car accident. She is alive and well. At first, Laura thinks it's a sick joke. But multiple announcements of her death are followed by increasingly sinister real-life events.

Already fragile, struggling to recover from a recent divorce, Laura is plunged into a living nightmare. Who can she trust? Her new lover? Her clients and work colleagues? What about her ex-husband and his smug fiancee? Can Laura even rely on her best friends?

And why is it that Laura's present troubles are so tied up with her sister's sudden death all those years ago? But one thing Laura is sure of - someone out there wants her to suffer. Wants her gone.

Forever.

Really good!

I really liked it! I did figure it out from the beginning but that may be because I’ve read so many thrillers, and not the books fault. Regardless of knowing, it was still interesting to see follow the characters there. Great read!

LAUA'S CHARCTER &DECISIONS. FELT THE PROTAGONIST BEHAVES IN WAYS THAT STRAIN CREDIBILITY FOR EXAMPLE DELAYING REPORTING TO AUTHORITIES

Pretty good

It was a suspenseful, enjoyable tale. I figured out who the culprit was pretty early on, but it didn’t stop me from enjoying the story.

Where’s the twist?

I read some reviews before starting this and people said there was a twist at the end. Where did it go? Predictable

guessed the protagonist

It was just okay. Most chapters seem drawn out. I figured out the antagonist a third of the way through, making the chapters wordy since the outcome is pretty clear based on early climax clues. Just my opinion.

Great narration

I liked the story but it was too easy to figure out. The narration was superb and that kept me interested.

Fun thriller!

I liked this book a lot! It was a fun, easy read, starts off quick which I love, and keeps going throughout. The ending was quick and I would have liked an epilogue to see what happened with the characters but it was still a good ending. I figured out who it was pretty early but it didn’t take away from the excitement of the book.

The frantic narration

It was a good story with lots of surprises. However, the narrator was so frantic throughout the book, I expected a heart attack .

Started off ok and then… 💣

t started off promising, but then really lost me. I kept waiting for a twist at the end, thinking there was no way it could all be that predictable or that the main character could really be that naïve—but that’s exactly how it played out.

Good story line

Easy listen, entertaining, it was included in my audible. I appreciate the books audible includes in my membership
