The Next Woman

De: Caroline Corcoran

Narrado por: Kitty Kelly

Lily knows every inch of Aurora Island—she came here to disappear.

Hidden away, a mile off the mainland, it’s a paradise of beautiful beaches and picture-postcard villages. The perfect place to reinvent yourself. To keep secrets buried.

But this summer, women are vanishing—in a chilling alphabetical pattern. First Alice. Then Beccy. Then Corinne. Each disappearance more mysterious than the last, leaving no trace behind.

As panic builds on the island, a hit true-crime podcast seizes on the story. Its magnetic host, Ross, arrives with questions, charm, and an agenda no one can quite pin down.

For Lily, each new disappearance brings her letter closer. And on Aurora, where some come to hide and others vanish without a trace, time is running out—one woman at a time…

A Twist I Never Saw Coming

I really enjoyed The Next Woman by Caroline Corcoran. This one completely surprised me in the best way. I went in expecting one kind of story, and it turned into something totally different—and honestly, that’s what made it so interesting.
The concept felt fresh and a little outside the usual thriller formula, which I appreciated. It kept me engaged because I genuinely had no idea where it was going. And the biggest thing? I never would have guessed who the villain was. Not even close. It caught me completely off guard, which is always a win for me in a thriller.
There were a few moments where the story felt a little uneven, which is why it didn’t quite hit that full four-star mark for me. But overall, I really liked it. It was unique, intriguing, and definitely memorable.
If you’re looking for something a little different that will keep you guessing, this one is worth picking up.
