Publisher's Summary

The instant New York Times best seller from the author of Sometimes I Lie.

Ten years of marriage.

Ten years of secrets.

An anniversary they’ll never forget.

Adam and Amelia are spending the weekend in the Scottish Highlands. The remote location is perfect for what they have planned.

But when their romantic trip takes a dark turn, they both start to wonder - can they trust the one they’re with?

Because every couple tells little white lies. Only for Adam and Amelia, the truth is far more dangerous.

Critic Reviews

"Chilling and clever, with a twist so sharp you’ll get whiplash. Rock Paper Scissors is the kind of blistering one-sit read that Alice Feeney is just so incredibly good at." (Chris Whitaker, author of We Begin at the End)

"Deliciously dark.... An exquisitely constructed, hugely entertaining thriller.... I loved it." (Catherine Ryan Howard, author of The Nothing Man)

"A perfectly-plotted thriller that hooked me from the opening scene.... A scissor-sharp portrayal of a marriage on the rocks. Atmospheric, entertaining and clever." (Philippa East, author of Safe and Sound)

"Not just fiendish but positively Feeneyish - dark, ingenious and very clever." (Cara Hunter, author of Close to Home)

"A cleverly crafted novel with a grand twist." (Stella magazine)

Great story

I loved this story so much that I suffered through the annoying female voice narrator. Many times I wanted to stop listening because of… her MANY …. Pauses….. and formula like reading. Stop… before saying last word of…..sentence. The male voice was great

What a journey

My journey started with this book as I’m not sure if this type of novels are my Cup of tea but I enjoy the previous book his and hers.
I like the way this story was written and the way story twisted the The audio was phenomenal you could easily tell that even the readers are enjoying the stories which makes it easy to listen to them the way they make the story as real as possible makes you travel with your imagination thanks for the experience and thanks for letting me join you in this amazing journey

Wow just wow

absolutely love this book, I took a little bit of time to get into it but when I was past the first chapter or so and was understanding what was happening I could not stop listening to him. What's a absolute roller coaster when you think you're gonna Zig then it absolutely zags and when you think it's going to sad it was ID all the way to the last sentence of this book I was engaged and on the edge of my suit would hundred percent recommend this one of the best books I have listened to in a very long.

Not my favourite

This is my third Alice Feeney book and unfortunately my least favourite so far. Whilst it was overall enjoyable and intriguing, it just didn’t wow me. The narration was a little bit wonky at times and needed to be sped up quite a lot for my liking, though I thought both narrators did a fairly good job. Despite not being my all time favourite book, rock paper scissors managed to keep my attention and had some genuinely chilling moments which gave me the heebie jeebies. And I’m not usually creeped out by thrillers. If you’re a fan of the author and the genre and can temper your expectations then I’d say it’s worth the credit. But if you’re looking to be blown away then maybe pick something else.

what an ending

ok. I admit. this one took me a long time to finish. the beginning was a little boring so I started listening to something else. then I came back about chapter 4 and I pushed through to listen to it. the middle of the book got a little flat, too much small details and seemed to drag on. it felt as though the writer just added all these details to fill the book. but then. the end!!!!! the end was chilling, twisting and exactly what I like in a book. the whole way through, I thought I had it figured out but nope I was wrong. it's the type of ending you don't see coming. I loved the ending and would listen to it all over again, minus the middle part of the book. you will not be disappointed. the narrators were perfect and done an excellent job

Enjoyed this enormously

One of my favourite narrators is Richard Armitage I would listen to him read the phone book …..if we had phone books
So I will always enjoy the book he is narrating Alice Feeney writes a mean novel. This is great.

Took 2 hours to get good but Twist was worth it!

Took 2 hours to get good, I upped the speed to 2.5x, once it get goes going past 2 hour mark it gets really good, the twist at the end is satisfying but story does have moments of ,,'just get on with it' but when you see the full picture you understand the slow build up and context,

It takes a twist you won't see coming!

I found the story a little slow, but the journey is necessary to get to the secrets of each character and fabulous ending. Well worth it!
