The Running Club

the gripping new novel full of twists, scandals and secrets

De: Ali Lowe

Narrado por: Brigid Lohrey, Gina Murray, Natasha Jacobs, Vivien Carter

The rules of the running club are the same as they have always been: keep your breath steady, keep your mind sharp, record your laps! Only now there's a new one: don't get killed.

The wealthy community of Esperance is picture-perfect. Big houses, stunning views, beautiful people. A brand new running track for the local club to jog around in the evenings. From the outside, it looks like paradise.

But the women of the town know the truth: you can hide anything - from wrinkles to secrets from your past - if you have enough money.

You could even hide a murder.

THE RUNNING CLUB is the gripping, twisty thriller from the author of THE TRIVIA NIGHT, full of secrets, lies and reveals you won't see coming.

Reseñas de la Crítica

'Ali Lowe is moving swiftly into the footprints of Liane Moriarty'

The Running Club has it all: old and new secrets, glamour and greed, and extreme competitiveness which is darkly funny . . . until it turns criminal. I raced to the last page

A sharp, clever and compelling read about family, friends and the secrets and lies that bind them together . . . I couldn't stop turning the pages and read it in just two days! Ali's characterisation is always pitch-perfect leaving me both surprised and horrified by the dark side lurking beneath the glamourous and wealthy facades of her protagonists. The Running Club is no exception - nearly everyone in Esperance is hiding something, so I'd advise keeping your running spikes at home . . .

The Running Club was all about the fascinating characters for me. Their overlapping pasts; their places in the social hierarchy; their resentments, jealousies, secrets and betrayals. A running club riddled with rivalries, leading to a murder mystery that had me gripped til the end

Appropriately fast-paced, you don't have to be a runner to recognise Lowe's brilliantly drawn characters. This gripping thriller, where nobody is quite who they seem and everyone is a suspect, held me tight within its grip and I raced to the end

I loved the elite lives, the big money and bigger secrets. Fast-paced and brilliantly taut

More frenemies than friends, there are twin sisters demonstrating a bizarre mix of sibling rivalry and union, and best pals who really put the 'end' in friendship . . . If you're a fan of Liane Moriarty, make sure this new author is on your radar

Deliciously dark and completely enthralling, The Running Club is the perfect follow up to Ali's brilliant debut. Curl up on the couch and sink your teeth into this addictive and immensely satisfying read

Utterly gripping

Ali Lowe is channelling Liane Moriarty in The Running Club, a whodunnit set in the exclusive Australian town of Esperance, a picture-perfect beach location exclusively people with dreadful human beings . . . It's a fun way to while away an evening

Ali Lowe is moving swiftly in the footsteps of Liane Moriarty, with her twisty family dramas . . . She is one to watch

Ali's book has all the ingredients of a great read with a clever plot, relatable themes, deep character development and a powerful sense of place. Not to mention her clever writing style which keeps you hooked right to the end

The Running Club is well-paced with a well-woven plot, slowly revealing a bit more of each character with riveting suspense throughout . . . an enthralling, captivating, whodunit puzzle of a novel that will satisfy your curiosities when you put the pieces together - especially when you find out the 'why' alongside the 'who'. This makes for a perfect page-turning weekend read.

Marred by one awful narrator

A satisfyingly twisty story, but the narrator for Freya was atrocious. She read stiltedly rather than narrated, and her pronunciation was pointlessly laborious, for example, persistently pronouncing "a" as "ay" and "the" as "thee". She even kept this up while narrating a couple in transports of passion. Ignorant and pompous.

Excellent

Even better than Trivia Night. Vibrant characters and lots of twists and turns, definitely worth a credit!

wow 10 stars

Absolutely loved! The characters were amazing, I miss them already! Superb writing, great location, great storyline. Ten stars!

Excellent listen!

Excellent book club book! Lots of twists, right until the end! Each time I thought I had it figured out, there was another twist of events!

Pretty good

I liked it. Not super intense or exciting but an easy listen with an interesting story that kept you listening.
