About this listen
The brilliant new psychological drama from the Sunday Times best-selling author of The Perfect Girlfriend.
How far would you go to fulfil a promise to your oldest friend?
Nina, in the final days of her illness, asks her best friend, Marie, to look after her family when she's gone. And Marie does everything she can to step into Nina's shoes after her friend's tragic death. She tries to do the best by Nina, tries to be there for Nina's young children, tries to support Nina's grieving husband, tries to keep their lives on track despite their terrible loss.
But when Marie discovers a dark secret that Nina had kept concealed, she is forced to confront the past, and those shared secrets come back to haunt her, too.
Tense, heart-breaking and utterly gripping, The Last Wife explores the real nature of love and friendship - and just how fragile every relationship can be in the face of the secrets we hide from each other.

A jolly good listen
I thought the story was goin a particular way and then it started going another leaving me wondering how it'll end up. It was a very good story but I did feel confused at times as to the way everything was unfolding.
It has a good scream in it though that scared me and one of my cats, I'd just turned the volume up seconds before and quickly regretted it!!

Totally compelling
One of my absolute favourite books in the genre. I love how almost every character is deeply flawed and somewhat morally grey. Marie is a great main character, as her motivations are understandable, and given that most of the other major characters are at least as flawed as she is, it is possible to forgive her questionable actions and decisions. Wonderful narration.

Not a patch on The perfect Girlfriend.
I’m sorry to say this second book by author Karen Hamilton is not a patch on the first. The story lost its way after a promising beginning. I almost didn’t finish it. Shame as I was a big fan of The Perfect Girlfriend and recommended to lots of people.
