The Daughter-in-Law

De: Shalini Boland

Narrado por: Katie Villa

Your new husband has a shocking secret. Would your mother-in-law kill to protect it?

From the moment I meet my new mother-in-law in her beautiful country house, she makes it clear I’m not welcome. Lilian Fletcher hates me for marrying her precious boy on a golden beach far away from her.

Starting our marriage living in the Fletchers’ family home is a nightmare. Then I discover Seb was married before and his first wife is dead. I wonder why the man I love didn’t tell me the truth. And I wonder what happened to her: the woman who came before me. How did she die?

Lilian’s steely blue gaze follows me everywhere. Then the accidents start to happen, and I know she is behind them. It starts with small things, like a dropped birthday cake, a spilt glass of wine. But then my mother-in-law accuses me of something terrible. This woman is determined to get me out of her son’s life.

Now I wish I’d never met my handsome, clever husband. Or come to this luxurious house that feels more like a prison.

But I have secrets too. And no-one knows who I really am….

From the USA Today best-selling author, this totally addictive psychological thriller will keep you guessing all the way to the final shocking twist. Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train, Gone Girl and The Wife Between Us.

just okay

Not up to Shalini Boland's level of writing..a bit of a lazy predictable story.
Narration always good by Katie Villa

Ending not what I expected….

This book took a while to get there and I was getting tired of some aspects in getting to the point. However, once it got there it was like whoa! Expected a lot more from the ending though. Performance was EXCELLENT!

Great suspense story

Shalini Boland really knows how to draw me into a story. I think I know what's going to happen but I'm surprised every time. Katie Villa is a wonderful narrator.

Interesting….

Takes a while to get interesting then theres a bizarre twist almost at the end, its not expected and kind of weird but in the end all ties together. Great narrator so thats a plus

I couldn’t stop listening!

Engrossing story told from three POVs. I absolute love Shalini Boland’s work and this one did not disappoint! Katie Villa did a beautiful job!

Suspense and great story line

Kept me guessing all the way though! Shorter story than my usual listens but worth it.

Loved it!

I could not stop listening to this book. I haven’t heard a book from this author I didn’t absolutely love. Definitely kept me guessing until the very end.

So good!!

I couldn’t stop listening to this story! The author and voice actors did such a great job

Pretty good

I did not like this one quite as much as other Boland books. I do love the way the story is told though.

Loved it❤️

Storyline was somewhat familiar with a great twist at the end. Narration was very good and did not distract from the story.
