Summary
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.

Predictable but an easy enjoyable read
Predictable but somewhat enjoyable . Could see where it was going from early on... Not sure I would recommend

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!!

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?

A bit farfetched
Kept me interested but found it rather farfetched.
The narrator was fine, just a little monotone in parts.
I enjoyed it overall.

Annoying!
Whilst the book seemed to start well it soon became improbable and annoying. Numerous issues seemed to clank along and when it finally reached a conclusion it was so ridiculous that I wondered if I had dreamt the whole thing.

Ending unsatisfactory.
Nathalie Buscombe's performance was fantastic as she kept me invested in the story of Alice. The rating revolves around the ending. It dragged the rest of the story down, felt a bit rushed and didn't achieve what I had hoped. Absolutely loved the Writing style though. I intend to listen to more by Sandie Jones in the hopes that her other stories are on the same level and have better endings.
