About this listen

A totally thrilling and addictive psychological thriller

Is the man you love a killer?

I’ve been married to my kind, loving husband Lachlan for over twenty years. He’s my everything. We have two teenage children, a beautiful home and I feel so lucky to live this perfect life. Until my best friend says something that makes me doubt everything…

She whispers it’s strange Lachlan has lived nearby to two unsolved murder cases. First, the murder of the woman in the small, Scottish village where he grew up and more recently the shocking death of a woman who lived round the corner from us. The thought makes my head spin. It’s just a coincidence, surely?

But at home, I can’t help but notice that Lachlan’s becoming angry, not at all like his usual self. It makes me wonder if he’s hiding something from me. It makes me wonder if he could be guilty. I push the thought away, but no matter what, I can’t get rid of this niggle of doubt.

The only way to find out is to go to Scotland and get my husband to face his past. But when secrets start to unravel in the remote Scottish Highlands, I realise the truth is more complicated than I thought, and more than one person could be a killer.

Now my children and I are in terrible danger. And coming here might be the last mistake I ever make.

An utterly addictive psychological thriller that will have you gasping out loud from the master of multiple twists and number 1 bestselling author Daniel Hurst. If you love None Of This Is True, John Marrs, T.M Logan and Freida McFadden you’ll be gripped by The Husband.

Good listen

Listened within 2 days so pretty ‘bingebale’. I enjoyed it, no huge plot twists but it was a good time filler

Binge listened in a day on and off. A really good audiobook from this fantastic author. 5 stars all round *****

Love this author so much. Have seven audiobooks in my collections by him now. This one was absolutely brilliant. A genuine 5 star review. The story was engaging. It had me gripped from the very start to the very end. The narrators were fab and both suited the story so well. Only purchased this title this morning and finished it by bedtime it was that good. If you a fan of the author,you should purchase this title. Up there with the best is this author. Can’t wait for another new release.

Bit disappointing

I liked the story but it wasn’t as enjoyable as Daniel’s previous books. Usually he has a good plot and a twist at the end, this one didn’t and the identity of the murderer was revealed really early which took away most of the suspense.
