About this listen

I suppose everyone has their reasons for living here. Who knows what lies behind the pretty curtains and the well-groomed lawns of Mulberry Avenue?

Lucy has a kind and adoring husband, a job she loves as a teacher, and a house on Mulberry Avenue with floaty curtains and the softest bed linen. After her troubled childhood, she knows life will never be perfect, but it’s pretty close.

She’s also got Amber, right next door. They never run out of things to talk about. Even if Amber’s life - with her high-profile job and handsome, wealthy boyfriend - is more glamorous than Lucy’s, they share a down-to-earth sense of humor.

But then Amber starts to hint that her life isn’t all it seems, and when she comes to Lucy, terrified, saying that she’s getting threatening messages, Lucy promises to protect her.

The closer Lucy gets to anyone, the harder it’ll be to keep her past to herself. But Amber doesn’t have anyone else, and Lucy welcomes her into her home.

Lucy knows all too well that people aren’t always what they seem. Sometimes they have secrets. And they’d do anything to keep them. Yet when Amber settles in a little too quickly, Lucy’s still sure: she can trust her friend...can’t she?

Gripping and pause-resisting, All Her Secrets tells a story about the dark side of friendship and has a final twist that will shock every listener. Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train, Friend Request, and Clare Mackintosh.

Reviewers love Sue Watson:

"Tense, atmospheric psychological thriller with more twists and turns than a rollercoaster. Impeccably written and a big fat 5***** from me. Awesome!" (Number one best-selling author Angela Marsons)

"Gripping tension that builds and builds... I kept thinking I knew where she was going only to be knocked sideways... An absolute page turner of a read that sent my heart racing. Bravo to the new queen of psychological thrillers." (By the Letter Book Reviews, 5 stars)

"Most definitely a book that captures your imagination... A book that I literally did not put down." (Best Crime Books and More, 5 stars)

Engaging

This was my 2nd Sue Watson book this week. Another great story but if you haven’t checked out her other title yet, Our Little Lies, it’s a definite must! Her stories are always nice and easy to listen to. Great twists in all her stories!

Boring

I’m so sorry I wasted a credit on this. The narration was cheesy and the story was boring.

Haven’t even finished the book and want to leave a rave review!

This is my second book by Sue Watson, the first one was “Our little lies” both read by Kate Villa. I was first drawn in by the narrators elegant English accent and then fully taken with Sue Watson’s story’s . I’m only getting into this book hour or so in but I LOVE IT ❤️if you loved her last book you’ll love “The woman next door”

Yawnsville

Predictable, Slow, Terribly narrated. Struggled with the awful narration from beginning to end.
Don't say you weren't warned.
