About this listen

THE BREAK-OUT NO.1 KINDLE BESTSELLER! Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty, Shari Lapena and Lisa Jewell

The perfect couple … or the perfect lie?

A devoted wife…
A year ago, Gemma met the love of her life, Danny. Since then, their relationship has been perfect. But one evening, Danny doesn’t return home.

A missing husband…
Gemma turns to the police. She is horrified by what she discovers – a serial killer is on the loose in Bristol. When she sees photos of the victims she is even more stunned…they all look just like Danny.

Who would you believe?
But the police are suspicious. Why has no one apart from Gemma heard from Danny in weeks? Why is there barely a trace of him in their flat? Is she telling them the truth, or is this marriage hiding some very dark secrets?

I loved listening to Gemma’s story but the police were embarrassingly ‘doh’ ..... Also, the narrator’s Irish accent was dodgy but overall a great listen.

Great story to listen to....but...

Not what you’d call great lit-er-a-ture, but I f you can cope with the clichés (‘steaming mugs of coffee’, ‘shock of blonde hair’ etc) it’s a cracking yarn with a brilliant plot twist at the end. Would be a gift of a plot line for a screen play...

Great story telling!
