About this listen

We promised to keep each other’s secrets. Until they found the body…

The Wife:

My husband and I are fighting for our lives in hospital after a terrible car accident. But despite my pain, all I can think about is what our families will find behind our front door. The scarf that has been all over the news, belonging to a dead young woman with honey-coloured hair. I have to speak to the police before my husband can…

The Husband:

I’m drifting in and out of consciousness, but when I hear my wife talking to the police, accusing me of the murder of an innocent woman, a cold fear grips me. I know I’ve got a temper. That I’ve not always been faithful. Will they think I killed her?

I think of my wife’s jealous streak, of the lies she’s told our loved ones. But if I tell the whole truth, they’ll look into her past. And that will destroy me, too…

Two people fighting for their lives. Two people with secrets to hide. Who will you believe?

A completely compelling and twisty thriller from number 1 bestselling author K.L. Slater. Fans of Lisa Jewell and Freida McFadden will be hooked by Husband and Wife.

Excellent

As a free audible I was pleasantly surprised how great this book was. Excellent narration and such a great story line! Will definitely search for more from both author and narrator.

K L Slater comes through again!

Another well written book by Slater, and the narration by Clare Corbett was excellent as well. Once I started listening to this book I couldn't get myself to stop. the flow of the story is very steady and keeps you entertained. At some points in the story you wish you could reach into the book and slap one of the characters up side the head because they are frustrating you so much. Or you are saying "mind your own f><_king business" oh man, Audio books are a lot of fun. Great book you will enjoy listening to it 👍.

Nice Twist

By fluke I figured out the ending pretty early on. I think only because I’ve read every book by this author and know her writing style really well.

Captivating!

This was my 13th by this author (all read in the last 7 months) and I kind of enjoyed it.
The story wasn’t crazy, absurd or silly, but believable.
I did think that the writing was solid and the storytelling was engaging or captivating, never mind the unlikeable characters.
The storyline (told through multiple POV’s) was interesting and I didn’t find the timeline structure confusing (there are lots of back and forth, now and then).
I did try the audiobook, which is currently available on Audible (Canada) at no additional costs for subscribers, but although I liked the narrators voice, by chapter 15 I couldn’t remember anything and I didn’t know which character was being played, as her voice did not change that much, so I purchased a copy of the e-book and started reading from the beginning. I enjoyed reading the writing words a lot more.
I wouldn’t call this book a thriller or suspense, but a drama mystery.
I quite loved the twits at the end.
As I was very pleased and entertained, I’m rating it as 5 stars.
A very easy and fast read.

Good pace, good narration

This was included in my subscription. I thought the narration and the pacing was very good. I figured out the ending half way through because there aren't many characters in the book but I listen to lots of mysteries.
