Quite Entertaining until the end ..

Not a classic obviously , but the story started off quite well and I was interested to find out what was going to happen regarding the missing new husband at the beginning. It even became quite exciting at times but unfortunately became rather unbelievable at the end. I find most books of this sort do that ! Maybe I was expecting too much.

Absolutely gripping

What a superb book! I only got it to listen to in the car, but found that I literally couldn't stop listening to it. An absolutely fabulous book, full of twists and turns. A definite must read for anyone who loves a thriller.

Gripping!

Loved this audio book. Got me through hours of running - difficult to control my heart rate towards the end though as real edge of your seat stuff.

Mildly suspenseful thriller

Audiobook Review. Narrated by Polly Whitehouse.
Hannah, independent, headstrong, and determined not to follow in the footsteps of her bitterly divorced mother, has always avoided commitment. But one hot New York summer she meets Mark Reilly, a fellow Brit, and is swept up in a love affair that changes all her ideas about what marriage might mean.
Now, living in their elegant, expensive London townhouse and adored by her fantastically successful husband, she knows she was right to let down her guard.
But when Mark does not return from a business trip to the U.S. and when the hours of waiting for him stretch into days, the foundations of Hannah's certainty begin to crack. Why do Mark's colleagues believe he has gone to Paris not America?
Firstly I want to say the narration by Polly Whitehouse was brilliant, her voice is engaging and it is this that kept me hanging on until the end of the book.
Whilst it turns out that not everything is as it seems with Mark, it wasn't as suspenseful as I had hoped it would be. At times the story seemed to be too full of every movement narrative and description that about chapter 20 I almost DNF but kept on because I wanted to know what the final end plot twist would be. I assumed there would be an enormous end plot twist, there is a twist but it's not electrifying, it didn't make me gasp with oh wowness, in fact it felt flat in the end almost too predicatable. However, that is my opinion and every listener and reader will have very different thoughts on this.
I am very much used to a Frieda McFadden or Lisa Jewell book which always has your jaw dropping to the ground, unfortunately, this one just didn't do it for me. Having said that, I do like this author's work and it did keep me listening so I would certainly give another book of hers a go.
From the start I didn't like Mark he seemed a bit too up himself and aloof. Hannah on the other hand was likeable and I really felt for her when she discovered that her husband was not in America where he said he was.
The ending is the reason I gave it a three v a four star because I kind of expected more of a twist.
It is definitely worth reading but if you can, listen to the audio because the narrator gives it that something it needs with her voice and how she carries you through the story.
