About this listen

The spectacular standalone thriller from the author of the critically acclaimed Frankie Sheehan novels.

It all started to go wrong the day the Wrights moved in next door.

Myles and Lana Butler live on a gorgeous new development in Wimbledon, leaning on a mortgage that is just within reach. When one of Myles' investments fails they are bound to lose everything.

Gabriel and Holly Wright have just moved in next door. The Wrights are sophisticated, ambitious and apparently very wealthy. At an after-dinner drink with their new neighbours, Myles and Lana share their worries and a solution is suggested between the couples. Life Insurance fraud. For a cut of the pay out, the Wrights would help them.

No one thought they were being serious. No one agreed they'd actually go through with it. And no one mentioned it would involve murder.

Then, one night, Lana doesn't come home.

Critic Reviews

The End of Us is exactly the type of book I love to read: witty, dark, unpredictable, well-written and with great insight into the darker side of human nature. A book to be devoured in one sitting (Karen Hamilton)
I loved it - easily Kiernan's best yet (Cara Hunter)
I loved everything about this stylish, addictive thriller from Olivia Kiernan. The End of Us entertains, it shocks, and it asks fascinating moral questions of its characters - and readers (my sympathies and allegiances were all over the place!) Beautifully written, masterfully executed. And THAT ending . . . (Caz Frear)

Really enjoyed this one.

After being disappointed in my last few audible listens, I was pleasantly surprised to order this one and really got into it. Lots of twists and turns and not a dull moment throughs to listen. Highly recommend.

Terrific take

Unlike so many thrillers this was not transparently obvious and it was entertaining till the last.
