Story
Abby and Ellie were never close as children. Now in their thirties, they each harbour deep-rooted resentment for the other - Abby for her sister's looks and her status as their mother's favourite. Ellie meanwhile is envious of Abby's perfect husband and picturesque home, a villa on the sun-soaked Italian island of Elba. When Abby invites Ellie to stay, both sisters see the break as a chance to relax and put aside their differences. But with their mother Susanna there too, all the simmering tensions of the past quickly rise to the surface.

Story
I watched you move in next door and thought we might be friends. I saw you watching from the window - and knew I’d have to keep you well away from my husband. I started to trust you. Confide in you. I started to mistrust you. Suspect you. I was confused when I blacked out after an evening at your place. Was I really that drunk? I came up with a plan. A plan to make you both pay.

when I first began listening and heard the narration in second person, I found it so irritating I almost didn't continue with the book. I'm glad I did though, very twisty and addictive.

Could have been a decent book of the author want trying to shove her extremely leftist views in at every possible chance. Painful!

'The Girl Before ' was the most poorly written book I have ever experienced. This was not so much a psychological thriller, so much as the most pathetic piece of "chic lit" I have ever read/listened to.
