Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
The razor-sharp new novel from the million-copy Sunday Times best-selling author of Queen Bee and Faking Friends.
Best friends tell each other everything. Or do they?
Georgia and Lydia are so close they're practically sisters. So when Lydia starts an online business that struggles, Georgia wants to help her - but she also understands Lydia's not the kind to accept a handout.
Setting up a fake Twitter account, Georgia hopes to give her friend some anonymous moral support by posing as a potential customer. But then Lydia starts confiding in her new internet buddy, and Georgia discovers she doesn't know her quite as well as she thought.
Georgia knows she should reveal herself, but she's fascinated by this insight into her friend's true feelings. Especially when Lydia starts talking about her. Until Lydia reveals a secret that could not only end their friendship but also blow up Georgia's marriage.
Georgia's in too deep. But what can she save? Her marriage, her friendship - or just herself?

Love it
Every Jane Fallon book gets better and better. Love her partner, so knew I would love her writing. A great starting off premise which soars off like an out of control rocket !
The narrator does not pronounce g at the end of her words- (Rather like how Priti Patel does not either) which I find irritating. So if you don`t mind tryin listenin without it annoyin you then great.

Not my fav Jane Fallon book
I reviewed this book in two parts as I didn't want to forget the first part by the time I got to the end. I like Jane Fallon but this book felt rushed/incomplete
*Spoiler alert*
The book takes the usual JF structure. Part 1 was a bit long winded. The Patricia, Lydia and Georgie trio was a great plot when it started. From page 1 of the book it was off to a great start, I was hooked but 20 chapters in was hoping part 2 picked up. Or rather was not going to be as predictable as I was suspecting
Part 2 was better than the first part and the story line moved quicker.
Am just really sad I didn't like this book as much as her last books. This felt like a mesh of a previous book (getting rid of Matthew ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) and queen B but the JF twist just never came.
For starters, Patricia/ Georgia's slip up was obvious when it happened and the reveal was a bit messy. (Lydia said she realised from reading and copying each others work which was different to Georgie)
In the end I concluded the catfishing may have been the twist. I was hoping the other couple were going to add some depth but their parallel storyline was equally as predictable.
Lydia's character was also just all over the place. First she was annoyed with Georgia, then that just happened to coincide with her feelings for Nick which then propelked her to do what she did.
To conclude on a positive, it's an easy listen and the ending, though predictable is good.

Jane Fallon’s Best Yet.
Firstly, the narrators did a brilliant job, it always helps when the book is so brilliantly read. Jane Fallon has written many bestsellers, this one is my favourite so far. It has a rip roaring pace, the plot is superb, with her usual well drawn characters, and dog. and the twists and turns expected, the deception and flawed personalities, the suspense, ah it was s thoroughly entertaining read. I finished it in a day and wanted more. I highly recommend that you give this a listen.

This choice of narrator wasn't the best idea ever
I am a big fan of Jane Fallon's books and have listened to all of them on audible, however, the main characters are supposed to be 45 yet 'Georgia's' story is narrated by a gushy, breathless young woman who is clearly in her thirties.
Otherwise, another true gem from Ms Fallon

Improbable Story with Unlikeable Characters
Certainly not one of Fallon’s better novels. The underdeveloped emotional responses and improbable reactions of the main characters make it difficult to persist with this book
A 21 year long marriage nearly ends because of immature emotional reactions via social media! This is the main event of the book which becomes harder and harder to believe
Fallon usually writes excellent revenge stories where one delights in the obvious wrong do-er getting their just desserts. In this totally unbelievable story, there is a rather limp, moralising conclusion and message
It is as if the author is trying hard to be charitable to all her characters but ends up with a rather anodyne product
My suggestion- don’t bother with this one, but try one of Fallon’s past excellent novels

Frustrating
While initially its easy to get into and doesn’t take much attention to grasp the storyline it becomes frustrating and predictable early on. The main characters are wish-washy and I found myself confused at multiple points by the choices, the same person who is confrontational at one point describes being powerless at another and it is jarring. Not worth reading if I’m honest.

Long dull and with self indulgent main characters
This started out ok - ish but went downhill fairly fast. The two main protagonists are immensely self obsessed and entitled. Found myself wishing it was over. There is poor character development- none of the characters have any appealing personalities and the premise of the ‘deception’ is ridiculous. The narration was equally irritating- particularly the voice of the main opponent and the voice of the husband is dreadful. Give it a miss, much better written examples of the genre out there, and much better performances. Should have stopped instead of going through to the end.

Couldn't finish
I thought the premise looked fun and it could have gone in so many interesting directions. Instead, it rolled out a tired, predictable story line that became more unlikely as it continued. The plot relies on a lack of communication, which just makes it very frustrating to listen to.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4,202
“The Heron” is the nickname a big-city accountant has attached to himself in his new home near San Diego, where he’s using the alias to avoid a hit man who may be after him. It seems a former client believes that The Heron has skipped town with several million dollars not his own. Don Winslow’s ensuing, entertaining yarn is by turns twisty, dark, and comical as we observe the delicate dance between the pursuer and the pursued.

Working at a dead-end retail job in the middle of nowhere can be hard. The long hours. The helpless customers. The enormous eldritch horror living deep below the building. As the only full-time employee at the 24 hour gas station at the edge of town, Jack has pretty much seen it all. But when he decides to start an online journal documenting the bizarre day-to-day occurrences, he unwittingly attracts the attention of much more than just a few conspiracy theorists.
