A loving husband or a heartless killer... she'd know, wouldn't she?

There's a lot Jean hasn't said over the years about the crime her husband was suspected of committing. She was busy being the perfect wife, standing by her man while living with accusing glares and anonymous harassment. Now her husband is dead, and there's no reason to stay quiet. People want to hear her story. They want to know what it was like living with that man. She can tell them there were secrets. There always are in a marriage.

The truth—that's all anyone wants. But the one lesson Jean has learned in the last few years is that she can make people believe anything. For the reporter who has secured the exclusive interview, this is the scoop of a lifetime. For the detective who has lived a half-life since he failed to get justice for the victim, it is a chance to get at the truth that has eluded him for so long. For Jean, it's a chance to defend herself, what she knew—and when.

This is the tale of a missing child, narrated by the wife of the main suspect, the detective leading the hunt, and the journalist covering the case. It's a brilliantly ominous, psychologically acute portrait of a marriage in crisis—perfect for fans of The Silent Wife and The Girl on the Train.

I really enjoyed this book. I've read one of Fiona Barton's books before so it was interested to listen to one as well. She's a great writer and the multiple voices of the narrators really helped differentiate the characters.

Great story!

This was an amazing book. A very compelling story that was told with empathy and respect. What a phenomenal listen. A very sad story but told in such a way that you had to give it the attention it deserved. A story that should make parents be more vigilant with their children and the law be tougher on these sick men.
This Author did a wonderful job with this sensitive subject and the telling of the story. .
All the narrators were amazing . I’m happy that we got to decipher each character so specifically with their distinctive voices.
Beautifully done I thoroughly enjoyed the narrators.
Thank you Audible Plus for including in my Library. Absolutely worthy of a CREDIT.

WOW…..Riveting Story!

In the first 2 or 3 chapters we know what happened. We know the characters, plot and outcome. Yet the story draws you in even tho there is no mystery. The characters became aggravating, sympathetic, totally human. The mistakes are evident, the outcome from them predictable and yet I couldn't help but find them forgivable. Great writing is all I can think as to why this book kept me captivated. Plus the excellent subtle narration for the characters. This was low key and very well acted.

so why is this so riveting?

Of all the audio books I’ve listened to this was the best narration by far. The story itself was enjoyable if somewhat predictable
