Publisher's summary

My husband was not a monster. No matter what they say....

The day my husband, Michael, stepped in front of a lorry after being questioned by the police, my world fell apart. He was devoted to me and our six-year-old daughter. But they’d connected him to the disappearance of a young mother from our tiny village.

Now I stand at Michael’s funeral, clutching my little girl’s hand, with tears in my eyes as I insist to all our friends that he died an innocent man. Yet the questions have started, and nothing I say will stop them digging for the truth.

But none of them can read the secrets in my heart, or know about the phone I found hidden in his toolbox....

I’m determined that my daughter will not remember her father as a monster. I will erase any hint of wrongdoing in this house whatever the cost.

Because to keep my daughter safe, the last thing I need is for people to start looking at me....

A completely gripping psychological thriller from the author of the number one best seller The Marriage. If you like Gone Girl, The Girl on The Train and The Wife Between Us then you will love The Widow.

I liked the story

Started off a little slow but I’m glad I idk with it. KL Slater is a great writer. Also the narrator was amazing!!!

Not Much Foul Language

I appreciate reads that don’t contain cursing or sexual content, and this one passed my tests. The ending seemed a bit romantic or contrived. They emotions of the widow where well described and took me back to my own experience. I will look for more from this author.

Unexpected

I started this book not expecting the outcome. It definitely surpassed my expectations & I wasn’t disappointed. It was a bit slow to start but picked up and kept me listening.

Twisty Tale

This is a believable who done it, masterfully read that kept me “turning the pages” until the final conclusion.

A British mystery and a suspenseful conspiracy

Author K.L. Slater does it again with this complexellent thriller, along with the exquisite vocal tones expertly presented by Lucy Price-Lewis. Going chapter by chapter with different characters’ viewpoints, this intriguing murder plot zigzags throughout, filled with surprises and a jaw-dropping ending. Listen carefully as not to miss anything. Both Slater and Price-Lewis are perfectly paired. Recently released on Audible, it was available for no cost in Audible Plus catalogue, so grab it now. Thanks to Audible for bringing this to us.

I dug it.

The narrator did an excellent job. I could easily tell the different characters. The writing was done well. Some of it was pretty predictable but just enough twists to still keep you interested anyway :)

Good.

I enjoyed this book. I could feel the emotions. I recommend this book. An example of faith in the people you love when it seems like nothing makes that possible.

great!!!

this author creates the best stories. this one is really worth listening to & I will be looking for more!

Great story

I’m glad I ignored the negative reviews and listened to the book. It was full of unexpected twists and turns, and yet, each twist was quite believable. Narrator did a great job as well.
