About this listen
The Sunday Times best-seller.
The New York Times best-seller.
The Radio 2 Book Club Choice - February 2017
Enter the world of One Folgate Street and discover perfection...but can you pay the price?
Jane stumbles on the rental opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to live in a beautiful ultra-minimalist house designed by an enigmatic architect, on condition she abides by a long list of exacting rules.
After moving in, she discovers that a previous tenant, Emma, met a mysterious death there - and starts to wonder if her own story will be a re-run of the girl before. As twist after twist catches the reader off guard, Emma's past and Jane's present become inexorably entwined in this tense, page-turning portrayal of psychological obsession.Following in the footsteps of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train, The Girl Before is being brought to the big screen. The film is set to be directed by Academy Award-winning director Ron Howard.

Another '50 Shades' spin off
The main bloke was a dollar store Christian Grey and the girls were just as silly and weak as Anastasia what's-her-name. At the very end one of them seems to pull her head in, but as far as i was concerned it was too little too late, i already had zero respect for her character and was rolling my eyes at every second sentence that came out of her mouth. The twists were good, and were the only reason i kept listening.

This was my first audiobook and I couldn’t have been happier.
I would absolutely recommend this book especially to walk to, the storyline makes you want to keep going to find out what happens next

thrilling!
A good read for anyone who likes thriller, crime, passion, and detective stories.
It was difficult at first to listen to two different characters and their stories but it got alot easier a the story progresses Nd became far more interesting.
I thouroughly enjoyed the twist and turns of this book.
I even think I'll read it again!

Mysterious Fifty Shades Thriller
Thrilling psychologically intriguing with a fifty shades feel. The story is abit far fetched though!

Deja vu
This one left me with the impression I had already read the story. It was the Girl on the Train all over again.

dizzy from the plot twists
well read and engrossing story. Perhaps a twist or two too many in the end that could have been refined and I found some one the disability talk quite insulting without giving much of the plot away.
