About this listen

Brace yourself for the latest gripping thriller from Sarah Richards, the bestselling author behind Audible hits China White and Born Winners. The Worst of You is a twisted tale full of mysteries that only grow more intense with each thrilling reveal, keeping you guessing until the shocking conclusion. Masterfully narrated by Sarah Desjardins (Yellowjackets), this immersive audiobook will have you captivated from start to finish.

In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

I enjoyed the depth of the story and the way the storyline twist married everything together at the end

Average easy listen

Enjoyable enough as an easy listen to throw on. There were aspects that felt… amateur. Honestly I found myself rolling my eyes sometimes. But in saying that, it was still engaging enough to finish!

Really poor ending to an otherwise good story

The first 2 thirds wee really good, you felt it was building to an epic ending. There was a major twist, that to be honest felt like a twist for the sake of a twist but that twist ultimately made the story seem so much worse. The ending was rushed, as if the author just wanted to finish the easiest way possible.

The descriptions of places and people

This book was okay but l lost interest a few times - l found the fact that two of the main female characters had names that were not dissimilar both starting with M confusing at times (not nitpicking maybe but l really did)
The way that suddenly the policewoman’s ex ‘the bad cop’ turned out all nice at the end was annoying given how badly she was painted throughout the story. All in all a bit meh 🤷‍♀️

Good story

This was a good story but there was so much background noise. Lots of thumping or stomping noises.
