Even now, driving them home and knowing she shouldn’t, seemed almost mischievous. All part of the fun. Not anymore.

Kat Grant and Alice Campbell have a friendship forged in shared confidences and long lunches lubricated by expensive wine. Though they're very different women - the artsy socialite and the struggling suburbanite - they're each other's rocks. But even rocks crumble under pressure. Like when Kat's financier husband, Howard, plunges to his death from the second-floor balcony of their South Florida mansion. Howard was a jerk, a drunk, a bully, and, police say, a murder victim. The questions begin piling up.

Marianne has a life others dream of. A beautiful townhouse on the best street in the neighbourhood. Three bright children who are her pride and joy. Sometimes her past still hurts: losing her mother early, growing up in foster care. But her husband, Simon, is always there. A successful surgeon, he’s the envy of every woman they’ve ever met. Flowers, gifts, trips to France: nothing is too good for his family. Then Simon says another woman’s name. The way he lingers on it, Caroline, gives Marianne a shudder of suspicion, but she knows it’s nothing - she can’t entertain this flash of paranoia.

Great story
- By Angela M. Dokos on 10-18-18
Publisher's Summary
Ana Bacon, a beautiful young wife and mother, tumbled off a cruise ship into dark and deadly waters. Ana is gone - leaving behind her wealthy husband and adorable daughter - but not everything about her disappearance adds up. What secrets did she leave behind?
Investigator Ryan Monahan is a numbers man. So when his company sends him the Bacon case, which could net a 10 million-dollar payout, Monahan doubts that her death is just a tragic accident. But the husband has a substantial alibi and a number of witnesses claim to have seen Ana fall, and the official ruling seems to hold up.
Still, the more Monahan uncovers about Ana's life, the more he realizes how many people would kill to keep her secrets hidden. And the closer he gets to the truth, the greater the odds grow that he, too, will take a fatal fall.

The Widower's wife
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Widower's Wife?
It is told with two storylines intertwined. Ryan's investigation in late November and early December is interspersed with Ana and Tom Bacon's decision in October to defraud the insurance company . It has many suspenseful parts that it was hard to pause while listening to the audiobook.

Good story line, but started to veer off my "keep me interested" track half way through. I finished it, hoping it would get better, but it became less believable in the waning chapters.

Long
Many twists and turns wasn't sure where or how this would end or if it would. When it finally got to the end it went quick. This goes to show even though you live with someone you marry them have their child you never really know that person. You never know what kind of horror they can bring in to your life. Concrete table!! Why would anyone spend over $4000 for one.
I received this free for an honest review from the author or narrator.

You are whom you are.
What made the experience of listening to The Widower's Wife the most enjoyable?
Figuring out the mystery and the ins and outs of it all.
What other book might you compare The Widower's Wife to and why?
Kind of like Gone Girl. But in a different manner.
Which character – as performed by Teri Schnaubelt – was your favorite?
Teri does the husband the best. She has him nailed to a tee.

Stay away from the edge.

Interesting story....wanted to find out "what happens" but truly unbelievable.....would anyone continue down the financial, emotional and dangerous road this woman traveled.......

Not to bad
What did you like best about The Widower's Wife? What did you like least?
Honest Review :
The story was ok and the narrations were easy to listen to but I just feel...for me personally that the story had to many jump scenes. I felt I was listening to one part and then it would go another part and then jump right back to where I had been before it went to another scene and it became confusing for me
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
What was leading up to the wife
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The narrators voice was soft and easy and knew when to pick up and slow down
Was The Widower's Wife worth the listening time?
Yes and No...
Any additional comments?
Not so many jump scenes

Slow. Dull. Boring.
I gave this audio book numerous chances but it never got better. It lacks intrigue and suspense. The storyline drags on and on without actually progressing. After twenty two chapters of an aimless plot, forgettable characters and mundane narration I'd had enough! I promptly called Audible and returned the audio with a credit refund. I'd wasted precious time on this book. I just could not waste a valuable credit as well.

I personally liked the insurance investigator Ryan. Tom was a excuse my language a Damn Shame. Anna was not living in a real world. Did she really think Tom was goingn to let her live? The ending was so weird and rushed in my opinion. Narrator did awesome although the story was somewhat unbelievable.
