About this listen
Alison has it all. A doting husband, adorable daughter, and a career on the rise - she's just been given her first murder case to defend. But all is never as it seems...
Just one more night. Then I'll end it.
Alison drinks too much. She's neglecting her family. And she's having an affair with a colleague whose taste for pushing boundaries may be more than she can handle.
I did it. I killed him. I should be locked up.
Alison's client doesn't deny that she stabbed her husband - she wants to plead guilty. And yet something about her story is deeply amiss. Saving this woman may be the first step to Alison saving herself.
I'm watching you. I know what you're doing.
But someone knows Alison's secrets. Someone who wants to make her pay for what she's done, and who won't stop until she's lost everything....

Brilliant
Although it took a few chapters to really get going, once it did, WOW, Brilliant.

Twisty and a little unexpected
Alison is a barrister, a wife and a mother and is having an affair with her instructing solicitor. What can possibly go wrong?! I went into this not really having any expectations, but the pace is really well balanced and I ended up binging it right to the end. Definitely looking for more Harriet Tyce books now - this was a thoroughly enjoyable escapism, although I wasn't keen on the narrator - to me, she made Alison sound older than I imagined she would be, so it lost some stars there, but still really, really good!

Did not see that ending coming!
What a fantastic book! Kept my attention throughout. Never saw that twist at the ending coming. The narrator did a fantastic job although I did agree with some of the feedback that the child's voice was way too whiney it did become a bit irritating but overall great narration. Brilliant read.

Good for entertainment whilst doing housework
I found it pretty predictable as to what was going to happen, I also felt that some details such as character appearance and images of places they visited could have been more descriptive and other details were not needed, such as the courtroom number.

Best book in a long time
This book is wonderfully written. The characters are interesting and the plot has many twists that keep you hooked. It is the type of book that you binge read/listen because you can’t put it down! Left me wanting to read more from Harriet Tyce.

Good story but alison has no agency
Main character had no agency. I found it frustrating that she took no control over her situation, consistently being the portrayed as the victim of her circumstances but never being able to change them herself. The character was displayed as weak & under the control of two men who treated her terribly. The story was overall well written and had a great twist at the end but I felt consistently annoyed by the main character dependent on these two men.

Fantastic!!!
The main characters are absolutely horrible people! Alison is a horrible mother, could not stand her behaviour BUT the story is very gripping and really loved the ending.

Plenty to like about this one
A good story if you like your characters flawed, like I do. The ending was close to predictable but not enough to spoil it. The narration was mostly good with the exception of the whiny child. This made me cringe every time. Should please anyone who likes psychological thrillers with everyday people.
