Publisher's Summary

Exploring the dichotomy between one's inner and outer self is central to Behind Her Eyes. When a vulnerable woman is drawn into the lives of an enigmatic couple, she finds it hard to differentiate between reality and what truly lies beneath a seemingly perfect exterior.

Don't trust this audiobook.

Don't trust these people.

Don't trust yourself.

And whatever you do, don't give away that ending....

Louise.

Since her husband walked out, Louise has made her son her world, supporting them both with her part-time job. But all that changes when she meets....

David.

Young, successful and charming - Louise cannot believe a man like him would look at her twice, let alone be attracted to her. But that all comes to a grinding halt when she meets his wife....

Adele.

Beautiful, elegant and sweet - Louise's new friend seems perfect in every way. As she becomes obsessed by this flawless couple, entangled in the intricate web of their marriage, they each in turn reach out to her.

But only when she gets to know them both does she begin to see the cracks.... Is David really the man she thought she knew, and is Adele as vulnerable as she appears?

Just what terrible secrets are they both hiding, and how far will they go to keep them?

Absolutely Riveting !!

I didn't want to stop listening, it was so good. I found myself driving around the block a couple of times just to hear the end of a chapter ! Great twists that weren't expected. Narrators were very good and easy to listen to. Great book !

this book got you in. it was captivating. was presented very well and is a well written story, but I wasn't fussed on the ending. a bit silly for my personal liking.
