About this listen

Is your husband so horrible that you’d ask your best friend to kill him?

Penny: I know my husband has cheated on me. But I can’t believe what I just found in the bedside drawer. Are my children safe... ?

Lisa: The first time he did it was on our wedding anniversary. He broke down in tears afterwards. That’s the thing about Simon. He’s always sorry... until the next time.

Holly: My husband is useless. He just loafs around the house all day and spends my money. But now I think he’s done something far worse.

We’ve descended on Penny’s stunning country home for a rare girls’ weekend.

As the cocktails flow, it turns out we’re all keeping secrets. Bloody hell, we sure can pick them.

We clink our glasses. “Here’s to our horrible husbands. May they get what’s coming to them.”

Good friends will die for you. But only best friends will kill for you.

I enjoyed this book on my morning walks.
It was about subjects that are deeply upsetting, rape and domestic abuse, it was hard listen at times.
I did enjoy the book but dealing with sensitive subjects the narrators had very odd voices, two of them sounded like 3 year old girls, it distracted from the story and in the end it was annoying and I almost gave up a few times.

kept me listening
