Publisher's summary
From the author of Our Kind of Cruelty comes an enthralling, irresistible novel of psychological suspense about three women and the destructive power of buried secrets.
When Nancy Hennessy is murdered, she leaves behind two best friends, an adoring husband and daughter, and a secret lover whose identity she took to the grave. Nancy was gorgeous, wealthy, and cherished by those who knew her - from the outside, her life was perfect. But as the investigation into her death flounders and her friends Eleanor and Mary wrestle with their grief, dark details surface that reveal how little they knew their friend, each other, and maybe even themselves.
A gripping, immersive novel about impossible expectations and secrets that fester and become lethal, Imperfect Women unfolds through the perspectives of three fascinating women. Their enduring, complex friendship is the knot the listener must untangle to answer the question: Who killed Nancy?
Imperfect Women explores guilt and retribution, love and betrayal, and the compromises we make that alter our lives irrevocably. With the wickedly sharp insights and finely tuned suspense that has drawn her comparisons to Patricia Highsmith and Paula Hawkins, Araminta Hall returns with another thought-provoking tour de force.

Story
Marissa Dahl, a shy but successful film editor, travels to a small island off the coast of Delaware to work with the legendary - and legendarily demanding - director Tony Rees on a feature film with a familiar logline: Some girl dies. It's not much to go on, but the specifics don't concern Marissa. Whatever the script is, her job is the same. She'll spend her days in the editing room, doing what she does best: Turning pictures into stories. But she soon discovers that on this set, nothing is as it's supposed to be - or as it seems.

Story
Penny Francone, age 16, is a murderer. Her guilt is beyond doubt: she was found alone in the victim’s apartment, covered in blood, holding the murder weapon. The victim’s identity and her secret relationship to Penny give Penny the perfect motive, sealing the deal. All the jury needs to decide now is where Penny will serve out her sentence. Will she be found not guilty by reason of insanity, as her lawyer intends to argue? Or will she get a life sentence in a maximum-security prison?

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

In her mother’s shuttered house, an old fear that has haunted Sienna for years rears its ugly head - that it was she who had been the killer’s target that night. And now, with it, a new fear - that the killer not only intended to remedy his past mistake - he’s already begun. But are these fears any different from the ones that torment her mother?

Loved this one! Grab this epic listen now!
I've just finished “Imperfect Women” by Araminta Hall, exquisitely narrated by Helen Keeley, and it’s catapulted to the top of my Audible library. For just $5.99, I discovered a one-of-a-kind whodunnit that exceeded my expectations in every way. Keeley’s flawless narration perfectly complements Hall’s intricate storyline, bringing it to vivid life with her precise vocal tones and inflections. As my introduction to Hall’s writing, I’m thoroughly impressed and will be searching for more. The way Hall weaves together complexellent characters, unexpected twists and jaw-dropping shockers is nothing short of pure genius. The story’s expertly crafted surprises kept me listening into the night, culminating in a breathtaking finale that left me speechless. For those seeking a captivating mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end, look no further than “Imperfect Women.” Hall and Keeley have created a truly unforgettable listening experience that will stay with me for a long time to come. Highly recommended! I look forward to my second listen.

so-so
I liked that it gave the perspective from each character but I didn't like how detailed it was. It was a little bit too lengthy. Also the plot seems a lot more intense than the actual story itself.

Good read
This books storyline was interesting and did each character justice but it was lengthy and I did struggle at times to get excited about listening to it. The ending was good but was so hopeful the box held a deed or something for Ellie! Thank you!
