The Couple on Cedar Close

Detective Dan Riley, Book 2

By: Anna-Lou Weatherley

Narrated by: James Lailey

One sunny August afternoon, the residents of Cedar Close throw their annual summer barbecue. Children play in the cherry-tree lined street, tables are laden with food and the wine is flowing. For Laurie Mills, it’s her first time meeting the neighbours. And it’s the first time she discovers her husband, Robert, is having an affair.

Cedar Close has always been a nice place to live - a quiet suburban street where everyone looks out for one another and bad things don’t happen.

Until late one evening, when Robert Mills is found dead in his bedroom.

Downstairs, in their beautiful kitchen, his wife, Laurie, sits alone in the dark with her head in her hands.

She can’t remember the last few hours, but she knows she didn’t kill Robert.

The trouble is, no-one believes her....

An utterly gripping thriller about the dark secrets that lie behind closed doors. Perfect for fans of JP Delaney’s The Girl Before and Gone Girl, The Couple on Cedar Close will keep you listening late into the night.

Loving this series!

I’m so glad that I found this series. It reminds me of the Joseph O’Loughlin series from Michael Robotham, which I loved. These have stronger sexual language, but it’s not excessive and it doesn’t take away from the storyline. I almost passed these up because I’m getting burned out on all of the “detective” stories, but this series is a keeper! Starting the next book now!

Good story

The book was a good listen. A bit long but good. I would recommend it.

The story was good

This is my 3rd story by the same author lots of similarities from one book to the next so I was hoping for an unexpected plot twist that never came

Suspenseful

Personally, I loved this story. It kept you guessing throughout the entire book. The setup and the way the perspectives were told were immaculate and it was hard for me to stay away from listening to this book. 10/10 for sure.

Narration drives this story!

The story/plot is great but I absolutely love the narration! He does an amazing job, each character has a distinct voice. I’m enjoying the Dan Riley series even more!
