You should never talk to strangers

With his flight delayed, Ted Severson meets Lily Kintner, a magnetic stranger, in an airport bar. In the netherworld of international travel and too many martinis, he confesses his darkest secrets, about his wife's infidelity and how he wishes her dead. Without missing a beat Lily offers to help him carry out the task.

I think I made a mistake by listening to this book, the narrators just didn’t do it for me. Overall though, loved the storyline. So many jaw dropping moments.

Very good!

A solid thriller. Was really easy to get into from the start. I would recommend to friends and anyone who liked books like The Nowhere Child, The Perfect Marriage and The Family Upstairs.

One of the best reads of the year so far

Fabulous book, that you cannot predict. Peter Swanson delivery another great thriller that continues until the last sentence.

One of my all time favourites

Unfortunately the voice casting for this is awful. Ted comes across as an ailing elderly man. Lily’s voice is stilted and she should be banned from ever attempting a British accent. The over accentuated /wh/ sounds are painful. None of the voices are age appropriate and are incredibly distracting from the plot. Mispronunciations are rife. Disappointing

Dreadful voice casting

Quite enjoyed this in the end and will definitely check out other novels. Like the way the author writes.

Almost last me but redeemed itself
