The Housewife’s Secret

De: Anna-Lou Weatherley

Narrado por: James Lailey

I cast my eyes over the impressive meal I’ve cooked and the half-empty crystal wine glasses. As our guests smile graciously, I squeeze my husband’s shoulder. It’s vital I get his friends to like me. To believe this version of me. Because I’ll do anything to stop them learning the truth…

Ever since I met my handsome husband Dr Gabe Bonneville, I started playing the role of the perfect housewife. He works hard as a surgeon, so I look after our home, and throw elaborate dinner parties with champagne cocktails for his best friends Hugh and Anita. He’s my safe place and my chance to have the family I’ve always wanted.

I’ve managed to hide the mornings when I wake up and see a face in the shadows. I haven’t told Gabe the truth about the woman who raised me, or told him about the therapy I’ve been getting so my secrets stay hidden in the dark. I haven’t questioned his past so he doesn’t ask about mine. I see the way Anita looks at him sometimes, but I’ll never say a word.

Until the letter arrives at the front door. The beautiful, expensive card shakes in my hand as I read the neat black handwriting.

Someone knows I’m not just a housewife. And the lies I’ve told will be all that’s left when I disappear…

Absolute fascination from beginning to end. So well done!

All was great. Amazing plot. Just think it should’ve had a female narrator. I’m a fan!!!!!!!

men

enjoyed the story but I really don't like men as the voice of women or maybe it was just this voice

Great book

The only thing that would have been better if they had a female do the women’s parts because it was kind of confusing sometimes

Another fantastic read by this author

First rate psychological suspense. And I love Dan Riley and his team. Incredible talent from Anna-Lou Weatherly!

Amazing Narration!

Wonderful narrator and very compelling story. One of my favorites in the series by far!
