About this listen

 It’s Always the Husband… unless it’s the best friend.

The Top 10 Sunday Times bestseller

‘A page-turning whodunnit that will speak to anyone who's ever had a frenemy’
Ruth Ware

‘A gripping, tangled web of a novel — it pulls you in and doesn’t let you go. I loved it!’
Shari Lapena

Kate, Aubrey and Jenny are inseparable at college – friends who promised they’d always be there for each other.

But twenty years later, their friendship is about to take a deadly turn.

Kate married the gorgeous party boy, Aubrey married up, and Jenny married the boy next door, but when one of the friends dies in shocking circumstances, will everyone assume that it’s always the husband? Or could it be the best friend?

It’s Always The Husband is the gripping debut which will keep you guessing until the very last page.

Pretty decent book. “Read” it over two days so I must have been ok. Only took an hour or two to get over the horrid extremely American girl narrator. The attempt at an Australian accent was hilarious (think, The Simpsons). The ending wasn’t terribly obvious, which was nice. I’d read more of the authors stories.

Not bad.

Stopped listening with 5 hours to go. Story lacks individuality and mystery. Felt like I’ve heard it many times before. Forgettable with the first pause button.

Predictable and underwhelming
