That is my fifth learn of Alice Feeney’s work. In my view this one is by far the most effective but! And that’s saying one thing, as a result of I actually preferred her earlier novels.

Simply once I thought I had it sussed out, one other plot twist would depart me with my mouth hanging open… As a result of I learn a LOT of thrillers, this doesn’t occur usually.

This story with themes of belief, gas-lighting, deception, identification, revenge, and parental love, is ready in scenic Cornwall.

Narrated by Bel Powley, Henry Rowley, and Richard Armitage, whose voices immersed me within the novel greater than the printed phrase would have, trigger me to suggest the audiobook model for its excellence.

At first, I believed it sounded a bit of like one thing I had beforehand learn. A ladies comes residence after her morning run, solely to search out her keys don’t match her entrance door. When she knocks, a lady who resembles her, claims to BE her, after which her husband corroborates the opposite girl’s story.  After that nevertheless, it wandered into actually authentic territory. I used to be blown away!

My favorite character was Olivia Chook (Birdy), who’s a police officer investigating the case.

Many occasions on this twisty novel will make you uneasy. The brief chapters make sure the reader’s consideration is ensnared and the pages nearly flip themselves. The reader’s notion of the important thing characters shifts always. It is a cleverly plotted thriller that’s advanced, however by no means complicated.

I’ll undoubtedly extremely suggest “My Husband’s Spouse” to all who will hear. I’m sure I’ve already discovered my first contender for 2026’s prime ten checklist.

This evaluation was written voluntarily and my score was by no means influenced by the truth that I acquired a complimentary digital copy of this audiobook from Macmillan Audio through NetGalley. I listened to the novel on audiobook through the NetGalley Shelf app. Revealed by Macmillan Audio. Unabridged.
