About this listen

The perfect way for us to live. The perfect way for him to hide…

My husband Matt and I are an ordinary married couple in every way but one. At the end of each day, we return to our own homes and our own spaces. Some people think this arrangement is odd, but for us it's perfect.

But beyond the fairy lights I string at my window, darkness is pressing in. Two local women have gone missing, and I don't want to be alone. With Matt away for work, I find comfort in chatting to my new neighbour Brenda, who drops in regularly with casseroles and groceries.

Sipping our coffees, looking out of my kitchen window, I soon notice how observant Brenda is. So when she tells me that perhaps my husband isn't simply working late, something cold takes root. I think of Matt's recent vague tone, the way he brushes off my questions. Brenda thinks I should pop by when Matt's not at home. Just to check everything's as it should be.

I should be able to trust the man I married. But when I do go through my husband's things, I discover that our perfect living arrangement is hiding a shocking secret…

This was a good read overall. The story kept me engaged from start to finish, with enough suspense to keep the pages turning, but it wasn’t overwhelmingly intense or edge-of-your-seat the entire time—which actually made it more enjoyable. The tension builds steadily rather than relying on constant shocks.

It works well as a thriller, with intriguing plot developments and a strong sense of momentum, but it doesn’t lean heavily into psychological elements. Instead of deeply exploring the characters’ minds or playing with perception, it focuses more on the unfolding events and mystery. If you’re looking for a solid, well-paced thriller rather than a dark psychological deep dive, this book is a great choice.

Good twists, suspenseful and good writing style
