If Avery Chambers can’t fix you in 10 sessions, she won’t take you on as a client. Her successes are phenomenal - she helps people overcome everything from domineering parents to assault - and almost absorbs the emptiness she sometimes feels since her husband’s death. Marissa and Mathew Bishop seem like the golden couple - until Marissa cheats. She wants to repair things, both because she loves her husband and for the sake of their eight-year-old son. After a friend forwards an article about Avery, Marissa takes a chance on this maverick therapist.

The white-washed Italian villa is perfect. I thought it might feel odd, living in a stranger’s house for the summer, but as my husband and children swim in the infinity pool, I start to relax. And then, in the back of a wardrobe, I find something that shatters everything.... Sparkling green eyes, square jaw, lopsided smile. A young man with his arm around a beautiful woman. The picture is old and faded, but I’d recognize him anywhere. The man is my husband.

Everyone is hiding a secret. One of them is murder. The book club was her idea, of course. It was her way into our group. A chance to get close. I knew from the day she arrived that she couldn't be trusted. And I was right. Alice didn't come to the village for peace and quiet. She came for revenge. A deliciously addictive psychological thriller about a book club that unravels dark and scandalous secrets between one circle of neighbours.

There, she meets Rachel, an unpredictable single mother-to-be who doesn’t seem very maternal: She smokes, drinks, and professes little interest in parenthood. Still, Helen is drawn to her. Maybe Rachel just needs a friend. And to be honest, Helen’s a bit lonely herself. At least Rachel is fun to be with. She makes Helen laugh, invites her confidences, and distracts her from her fears.

A Quiet Yet Intriguing Read
- By littlesimone on 09-10-20
By: Shalini Boland
Publisher's Summary
The Sunday Times best seller
Four people walked into the dining room that night. One would never leave.
Matthew: the perfect husband.
Titus: the perfect son.
Charlie: the perfect illusion.
Rachel: the perfect stranger.
Charlie didn’t want her at the book club. Matthew wouldn’t listen.
And that’s how Charlie finds himself slumped beside his husband’s body, their son sitting silently at the dinner table, while Rachel calls 999, the bloody knife still gripped in her hand.
Classic crime meets Donna Tartt in this nerve-shredding domestic noir thriller that weaves a sprawling web of secrets around an opulent West London world and the dinner that ends in death.
Critic Reviews
"Immensely gripping.... Stayed up till past 2am to finish this." (Sophie Hannah, Sunday Times best-selling author of the Hercule Poirot mysteries)
"Could not put this book down, kept me guessing the entire way. Wow! A triumph from B P Walter." (Susan Lewis, best-selling author of Forgive Me)
"I couldn't put this down. Suspenseful and well crafted, this is twisty, addictive reading to add to your list." (Debbie Howells, best-selling author of The Vow and Richard and Judy Book Club pick The Bones of You)

Great narration, so-so plot, pick up the pace!
Brilliant narrators Katy Sobey and Marston York do an excellent job together. Starting out at a very good pace, author BP Walter’s “The Dinner Guest” plot starts to drag and then falls flat, though there are ridiculous surprises. I did pay $9+ and am happy I did not waste a treasured credit. I never return books I pay for. Surprisingly, I did manage to finish it.

This book is OK. Super long on Munding facts that you don’t need for anything. I don’t even think the conclusion was a surprise or any type of payoff for going through this entire book. It’s a good premise, they just didn’t do much with it.

This book is so dumb
I wish I could get the brain cells back that were used to process the information in this book. It’s seriously awful.
Wayyy too much side story, and they are always long and drawn out.
And the way the whole thing played out was just ridiculous.
