Publisher's Summary
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing, read by David Pittu.
Introducing the next generation of domestic thriller...
Every marriage has secrets. Everyone has flaws. Your wife isn't perfect - you know that - but then again nor are you.
But now a serial killer is on the loose in your small town, preying on young women. Fear is driving your well-behaved young daughter off the rails, and you find yourself in bed late at night, looking at the woman who lies asleep beside you.
Because you thought you knew the worst about her. The truth is you know nothing at all.
PRAISE FOR MY LOVELY WIFE
"The twist at the end of the first chapter made me read through the night. Clever. Manipulative. Dark. Disturbing. What more can you ask for?"-Jane Corry, bestselling author of My Husband's Wife
"An assured and deliciously engrossing debut. You'll surely devour My Lovely Wife, but it will linger long after you've reached the last page." Sarah Pinborough, Sunday Times bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes
"You'll never look at your neighbors the same. I couldn't pull myself away from this story...Make sure you clear your schedule before you pick it up. Absolutely unputdownable." Liv Constantine, bestselling author of The Last Mrs. Parrish
"My Lovely Wife is a knockout. It's not just a novel about serial killers. It's family drama, about a marriage, about kids out of control, about infidelity, and about the news media; and it's also about the folks next door. It's an effortless page-turner." Publishers Weekly
"The twist at the end of the first chapter made me read through the night" Jane Corry

Great Performance by the Voice Actor
I loved the voice actor, I felt he did a great job. He is the main reason I am giving it a 5 star. However, I must admit, the story feels derivative of Gone Girl. This kind of story has been done before. It is not surprising that everyone keeps on comparing it to Gone Girl.

Pretty much Gone Girl
Liked this book, was engaging enough. Narrator did a good job but I found the twist was a bit anti climatic as was the conclusion.

Not my usual style
Absolutely loved it, twisted, suspenseful, dramatic. Not my usual style of book however I couldn't get enough of it. Finished in a week!

Great listen. 🙂😆
Great to listen too.
The ending was pickable but overall I liked it. Some of the voices were a little cringeworthy, but other then that..two psycho's under the one roof.. insane..👌😬

Eye Roll
I finished this because I did want to know the twist, I found it a hard slogg the narration did my head in. I just couldn't stand the sons and the woman's voices they were just awful. The twist meh!!!
