Penguin presents the audiobook edition of My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing, read by David Pittu.

Introducing the next generation of domestic thriller...

Every marriage has secrets. Everyone has flaws. Your wife isn't perfect - you know that - but then again nor are you.

But now a serial killer is on the loose in your small town, preying on young women. Fear is driving your well-behaved young daughter off the rails, and you find yourself in bed late at night, looking at the woman who lies asleep beside you.

Because you thought you knew the worst about her. The truth is you know nothing at all.

Wow! My Lovely Wife is a stunner - full of twists, well-drawn characters, and riveting suspense

Dexter meets Gone Girl - I loved this this brilliantly dark and twisted novel. One of the best books I've read this year!

The twist at the end of the first chapter made me read through the night. Clever. Manipulative. Dark. Disturbing. What more can you ask for?

Brilliant - I was enthralled by the premise and it totally delivered. Five star entertainment!

Dark, shocking and very witty, this wickedly good read will make you run screaming from the suburbs

We're calling it now: Samantha Downing's creepy, sexy debut thriller is going to be the next Gone Girl.

So beautifully and elegantly written . . . the ending is amazing and there is a great twist. I loved it. (Sophie Hannah)

An assured and deliciously engrossing debut. You'll surely devour My Lovely Wife, but it will linger long after you've reached the last page

Disturbingly Excellent

I beacame a nervous wreck 20 min into this book. Take into consideration that I write thrillers too. What got to me was how realisticly "ordinary" the narrative is. The thoughts and actions of the characters draws the reader/listener into a world of surrealistic normalcy. A kaleidoscope of viewpoints! Excellent narration!!

Omg what a thriller! Unbelievably twisted!

This book is highly disturbing and a very good read. I was extremely uncomfortable with the subject matter as it didn’t sit well with my spirit but yet was too good to put down, I had to see what happened. Milicent is unlike any other character I’ve ever read, hard to believe this is a debut novel. Has a bit inevitably of a Gone Girl feel and would make a brilliant and riveting cross over to film. Can’t say anymore in my review without giving away spoilers. A fab summer read if you have the stomach for it.
