Publisher Description
"Julia Whelan reads the novel in her low, pleasant voice, moving down a register to capture Richard's infuriating condescension and lightening slightly for the younger Emma. With its perfidious turns, this escapist entertainment is a fine example of the 21st century's more cynical version of the O. Henry ending." — The Washington Post
From Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen comes the next hit audiobook thriller, an instant New York Times bestseller!

Assume nothing.
Twisted and deliciously chilling, The Wife Between Us exposes the secret complexities of an enviable marriage - and the dangerous truths we ignore in the name of love.
Listen for the truth between the lies.
Praise for The Wife Between Us:
"Addictive domestic thrillers with twist-filled plots and unreliable narrators are increasingly popular. Add in assumptions that should not be assumed, shape-shifting, surprising characters and a complex chronology, and you have a hint of what you'll find in The Wife Between Us...All will be made clear, or perhaps not, as you listen to Julia Whelan's tautly paced performance." — BookPage
“A clever thriller with masterful twists.” – Karin Slaughter, New York Times bestselling author of The Kept Woman
"Readers who were enthralled by B.A. Paris's Behind Closed Doors and Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl will love the skewed psychology and shifting perspectives in this domestic thriller." - Library Journal
"A fiendishly clever romantic thriller in the vein of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train. This one will keep you guessing." –Anita Shreve, New York Times bestselling author of The Stars are Fire
"A twisty, mind-bending novel about marriage and betrayal. A gripping plot and fascinating characters; this book will keep you turning the pages and guessing until the very end. A must-read!" –Lauren Weisberger, New York Times bestselling author of The Devil Wears Prada

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The tense twists of Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen’s thriller The Wife Between Us work even better in the audiobook version. This seemingly straightforward story—about a jilted ex-wife dealing with the fallout from her divorce and her ex’s engagement to the woman he left her for—kept shifting in unpredictable directions. And actress Julia Whelan’s deceptively calm narration repeatedly pulled the rug out from under us. We were on the edge of our seat throughout…and the book’s ending made us want to start all over from the beginning!

Twists and Turns
Falls flat
I found it extremely hard to get into it but I finally did and then it was pretty flat after the first plot twist.
Don’t waste your time
It becomes confusing between the two points of view that the story is being told from. Both women have the same nickname. It is hard to tell whose point of view is being told at different times…..the story is dragged on and on with unnecessary fluff, that does not add to the storyline. Complete waste of my life, reading this book
