About this listen

Penguin Audio presents The Dead Ex by Jane Corry, read by Laura Aikman and Honeysuckle Weeks.

The third twist-filled thriller from The Sunday Times best-selling author of My Husband's Wife and Blood Sisters.

'I wish he'd just DIE.'

He said in sickness and in health. But after Vicki was attacked at work and left suffering with epilepsy, her husband, Daniel, left her for his mistress.

So when Vicki gets a call one day to say that he's gone missing, her first thought is 'good riddance'. But then the police find evidence suggesting that Daniel is dead. And they think Vicki had something to do with it.

What really happened on the night of Daniel's disappearance?

And how can Vicki prove her innocence when she's not even sure of it herself?

I like the toing and froing style of this book. Gradually bringing the story together. Fantastic reading by Laura Aikman.

Great listen

I found this book disappointing. Listening to Vicki just really annoyed me. Her story just went on and on and she started to irritate me to the point that I kept skipping over her section. I enjoyed listening to Scarlet and wished it had been just about her.

Disappointed

This is more than just an intricately plotted “who done it”, which keeps you guessing. It’s a fascinating rumination on guilt and innocence, unintended consequences, obsession, grief, love and hope. I absolutely loved this book and especially Honeysuckle Weeks reading of Vicki. The other readers were fantastic too. I’ll be looking for Jane Corry’s next book now!

Fabulous book
