“Part Patricia Highsmith, part All About Eve and pure fun.” (Maria Semple)

Florence Darrow has always felt she was destined for greatness, but after a disastrous affair with her married boss, she starts to doubt herself. All that changes when she sets off for Morocco with her new boss, the celebrated but reclusive author Maud Dixon. Amidst the colorful streets of Marrakesh and the windswept beaches of the coast, Florence begins to feel she’s leading the sort of interesting, cosmopolitan life she deserves.

But when she wakes up in the hospital after a terrible car accident, with no memory of the previous night - and no sign of Maud - a dangerous idea begins to take form...

Clever...

Clever plotting, enjoyable journey. I really enjoyed it. This book was a nice surprise.
Natalie Barelli’s books are a little like this too... but, I don’t thunk I could ever read too many books about authors. I love that premise. Good job. Perfect narration.

I couldn’t wait to write a review!

I would put this on a par with Donna Tart’s The Goldfinch. I thoroughly enjoyed the story line, and the character development was superb. The narrator nailed the performance too. I enjoyed every minute of it. You will not be disappointed!!!

Cute. Fun.

It was fun to root for an unlikable character. All of the characters were unlikeable and it made zero difference. I couldn’t put it down, I was excited to see everyone get their comeuppance. Not everyone did but that was fine too. If you enjoyed “The Plot” this one is a good companion.

Good story

Stay with this one. It gets much better. The beginning seems tedious, but turns into a very good book.

So enjoyable!

I seriously enjoyed this book, it was hard to stop listening. Since I listen when I exercise, I got plenty of exercise with this one! Excellent story.

A truly twisted plot. Absolute thriller mystery.

the novel keeps you interested . So many possibilities to the end . Breathtaking. The character development is smooth. Keeps you guessing till the end .

Loved the story, and really loved the performance.

I loved the twists and turns, the plot, the characters...all of it! Great experience.

Pat Douville

Most intetesting book I have read in a long time. I wasn't sure if I loved or hated the two protagonists. I recomended it to all my book reader friends.

Fun read

Predictable for most of the book, but a fun ride! Worth the time listening .

Decent

This was an enjoyable enough quick read that doesn’t require too many brain cells. The 2 main characters are utterly unlikeable; Florence in particular was a full on sociopath. I wasn’t a huge fan of the plotting. The mid section seemed to last forever, and the events leading up to the climax seemed pretty implausible. The narrator was okay. Her male accents were just plain bad and the female voices blended together, without consistency as to whether or not she was employing a southern accent.
