About this listen

The First Mistake is the stunning second novel from The Other Woman author Sandie Jones, who delivers twist after heart-stopping twist, in this addictively listenable domestic suspense about a wife, her husband, and her best friend.

Two women. Best friends.

Through the ups and downs of life, from celebrating and nights out to comforting each other through divorce and death, Alice and Beth know that together they can survive anything. That they trust each other implicitly.

When Alice’s husband, Nathan, starts going on more and more business trips, Alice starts to suspect he is having an affair, and the first person that she turns to is Beth, asking for her help in finding out the truth.

Because if Beth knew something about Nathan, she’d tell Alice - wouldn’t she?

After all that’s what best friends do....

Twists and turns throughout. Loved it!

I often hear of books with twists and turns throughout but don’t actually experience this. In this book though there truly are. Loved it !!

Far-fetched but enjoyable

I enjoyed this book because I was looking for something easy and engaging to distract me without dark or upsetting themes. I was hooked despite feeling that the plot wasn't credible. Recommended if you aren't looking for anything too deep.

A thoroughly good book

Twists and turns around every corner. Who should you sympathise or empathise with? Will the truth ought?
I will definitely chose another book by this author and likewise the performer. Will you?

Brilliant!!

This was a great read, lots of twists in the tale. Just when I thought I knew what was happening and what the outcome was going to be, something happened to disprove me! I wasn't expecting the final outcome at all. It had me at the end of my seat a few times!! I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. I have read her other book, and that was excellent too.
All in all, it was a very cleverly written book and it would make a great TV serial.
The narration was very good although, seeing as part of the book was Alices tale, and part was Beths tale, I think 2 narrators should have been used, one for each female.
Recommended!!
