Publisher's summary

Two women are watching each other.

Phoebe Miller isn't sure when the rusty car started showing up in the cul-de-sac she calls home, or why its driver would be spying on her. What could be interesting about an unhappy housewife who drowns her sorrows in ice cream and wine and barely leaves her house?

Only one knows why.

When a new family moves in across the street - the exuberant Vicki, who just might become the gossipy best friend Phoebe's always wanted, and her handsome college-bound son, Jake, who offers companionship of a different variety - Phoebe finds her dull routine infused with the excitement she's been missing. But with her head turned she's no longer focused on the woman in the car. And she really should be....

An addictive domestic thriller for fans of The Last Mrs. Parrish and The Couple Next Door, The Other Mrs. Miller serves up a delicious brew of dark secrets and stunning plot twists that will keep you captivated until the very last page.

Critic reviews

One of Bustle’s “40 New Thrillers Out This Summer That Make the Perfect Vacation Reads”

“The story has enough twists to satisfy mystery readers, and Dickson’s exploration of the truth behind the façade will draw in those who appreciate women’s fiction with a dash of suspense.” (Booklist)

“[C]leverly plotted… Dickson sets the stage for a stunning mid-novel plot twist…[T]his is a diverting poolside entertainment.” (Publishers Weekly)

Not for me

I can't really think of a good reason for not liking this book. I did not care for the story line, or the narrator's voice, but those are personal opinions that others probably wouldn't agree with me. Just because it is not my particular style, certainly does not mean it is not a good book for other people. That is why I said 3 stars.

Slow moving at first

Picks up pace halfway through. Twisty and not what I expected. Great ending. Will definitely read more by author.

Great until the end.

It was good...but the ending was a bit of a let down. The Bachman part was odd.

Wow, Surprising and Unpredictable.

I almost didn't get this because of the bad reviews about the narrator. And I do agree it was a mismatch for narration, but the story was so good that I am so very glad I got it.. Yes, story may be a bit far fetched but that's the great thing about some books. i like when you think you know whats going to happen. TWIST. I enjoyed it.

Perfection

WOW! *chefs kiss* 🤌🏽 This book was sooooo much fun. I listened to the audiobook, and I enjoyed it SO much. While some reviews say the plot twist was predictable, I had no clue it was coming.
.

The character development was great! When true colors started showing I couldn’t help but squeal 😂 I am deff one for the dramatics! I didn’t hate nor love any one of them, but I felt like I was watching a spanish soap opera/ Telenovela! 😵‍💫
.
.
I found myself audibly gasping and having conversations with the characters out loud. 😂 (Cheering them on, cussing them out, calling them dumb, etc) while the storyline itself was somewhat far fetched, it had me HOOKED! Drama, family issues, marital issues, lies, secrets, and the wow factor… it had it all!
I absolutely loved loved loved The Other Mrs.Miller.

Like the story, the narrator was lacking

The story is interesting, but the backstory was more interesting than the main character plot. Also, the chosen narrator’s voice did not fit the story.

Intriguing and Unlikely turn of Events

I enjoyed listening to this book. However, at times I felt the characters made some very unwise and unrealistic choices. Phoebe was a spoiled rich woman who had suffered emotional abuse from her wealthy, narcissistic father. As the story emerges, we see how her father's bad behavior negatively impacts all the female characters in the story. The men were "weak" but added depth to the story. Although the narrator was good, and her inflections were spot on, at times I had difficulty distinguishing Vicki's voice from Phoebe's and then from Natalia's. (Certainly, Phoebe and Natalia could not have been that much alike--they were not clones!) NOTE to readers: the Interludes will throw you off, but excellently contribute to the mystery of the book! I found the development of the broken characters made this a suspenseful mystery that intrigued me to the very end!
