Summary

My husband’s dead. She’s at my door. She owns my home...

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her buttery blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms.

As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts.

She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I know this will be hard to hear. But I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

My world implodes. And then she tells me that she owns our home – and that she’s not going anywhere...

An utterly gripping psychological thriller from the number one bestselling author of The Marriage. If you like Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train and Lisa Jewell then you will be hooked by The Girlfriend.

Very good ‘read’

Very easy to listen too especially while walking the dog! Easy to follow and to pick up from where you left off

Enjoyable listen

I wasn’t over keen on the narration and had to actually slow the speed down. But the story was good.

Great Story

Loved this - had a beginning, middle and an end. Very good narration. Good characters and a twist at the end not expected. First time with this author but will look at other books she’s written. I used to live near West Bridgeford and that area of Nottingham so could imagine well the area which was a nice touch for me.

I loved this book from start to finish, totally gripped, feeling very tired today as could not go to sleep until I found out what happened. It’s a must read …
