Horrible Husbands

By: Jessica Huntley

Narrated by: Clare Corbett, Charlie Albers, Anna Cordell

Is your husband so horrible that you’d ask your best friend to kill him?

Penny: I know my husband has cheated on me. But I can’t believe what I just found in the bedside drawer. Are my children safe... ?

Lisa: The first time he did it was on our wedding anniversary. He broke down in tears afterwards. That’s the thing about Simon. He’s always sorry... until the next time.

Holly: My husband is useless. He just loafs around the house all day and spends my money. But now I think he’s done something far worse.

We’ve descended on Penny’s stunning country home for a rare girls’ weekend.

As the cocktails flow, it turns out we’re all keeping secrets. Bloody hell, we sure can pick them.

We clink our glasses. “Here’s to our horrible husbands. May they get what’s coming to them.”

Good friends will die for you. But only best friends will kill for you.

One of the better books lately

It’s been hard to find good books lately but this one hit the spot! I’ve recently escaped a 15 year long nightmare of a relationship so this book was sinfully cathartic for me.

Loved it

I dont even remember hearing bad language lol, but it is a marriage thriller with 3 besties. listened in 1 day while burning brush after ice storm. I enjoyed it.

Twisty story loved it

This was a surprisingly great listen! The narrator was perfect and it was an interesting story. I thought I had it figured it out and then a twist at the end. Loved this and will check out the author. Excellent story and performance!

Great performance and surprise ending

I felt the story started a bit slow and didn’t have high hopes for the rest of the book. But it gained pace and had an interesting twist at the end. At first, I thought all of the characters were totally hopeless women, but it turns out they were a lot stronger than I expected.

Good until the twist

This story kept my attention all the way until the twist. It went so far, and really wasn't necessary to try to bring everything together. Great author, just not my favorite book.
