About this listen

When the rules turn deadly, winning is everything.

Only available from Audible, a gripping psychological thriller from the author of Silent Child, Saving April, and The Broken Ones. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Lisa Jewell and Paula Hawkins.

This gripping multi-voice audiobook features Billie Piper as Effie, Dan Stevens as Ben, Shane Zaza as David, and Avita Jay as Sophie, other roles are played by Felicity Duncan, David Holt and Sarah Whitehouse.

The perfect couple. The perfect marriage. The perfect game.

Effie and Ben May have everything. Success. Beauty. Glamour. But beneath the charming smiles and expensive clothes, a twisted game is in progress.

A game for which only they know the rules.

Leaving their fast-paced London life behind them, the Mays move to the exclusive gated community of Ivy Oaks. Here they can settle down and start a family in this quiet, safe little neighbourhood. At least, that’s what they tell their new neighbours.

But the truth has deadly consequences.

While Effie and Ben scheme and manipulate those around them, they fail to notice their carefully cultivated façade crumbling away. The perfect couple soon turn the game on each other, breaking all the rules. But when the stakes are life and death, losing isn’t an option.

As the final cards are dealt, who will play the winning hand and who will pay the ultimate price?

Twisted

I was not prepared for the ending! There was enough mystery and intrigue to keep me captivated the whole way through.

Kept me on my toes

I really enjoyed this story for its twists and the relationships that were formed. The way the story went, it felt like this could be your neighbor getting away with crime, which made it more engaging. Nothing too over the top or excessive but more realistic.

Get a surprise pizza.

Not a page turner, but kept my attention. More psychological than thriller. It is somewhat predictable. Performance is done very well.

Good twists

I enjoyed the pace of this book and the turns of the plot. Was easy to feel like you knew the characters and the ending was not as you would expect.
