About this listen

If you want to keep a secret, put it on Facebook!

What would you do if you found out that the man you married had a secret life that culminated in the ultimate betrayal? Yve Gibney tells the real-life story from their love-at-first-sight chance encounter while working as expats in Nigeria to the gradual realization that her husband of 19 years, Maurice Gibney, was actually full of deceit, manipulation, and coercive control and that their marriage had been a lie from the moment they had met.

Rich in investigative detail, she describes how, after viewing the profile picture of a stranger on Facebook, she unearthed a trail of hidden clues to discover a chain of evidence and shocking revelations that led to the discovery of her husband's duplicitous lifestyle and bigamous marriage in Oman. She also outlines her judicial journeys through the family divorce court and eventually the criminal courts for the bigamy verdict. The courtroom dramas are a real roller-coaster ride as she reveals the cruelties and biases implicit in how unjustly and insensitively the justice system treats victims of these types of psychological and physical crimes, to the point where at times, it felt like she was the perpetrator and the bigamist was the victim.

While it may be true that hell has no fury like a woman scorned, Yve Gibney's detective work and determination led to Maurice's downfall and his disgrace and her redemption. Don't get mad; get even. Yve's intriguing story received worldwide media coverage. She made a guest appearance on the Lorraine Kelly Show and was interviewed by Anna Foster on BBC Radio 5 and on ITV National News. Yve recently appeared with Eva and Nick Speakman on the ITV This Morning show in a feature entitled "Dangerous Love", where they described her story "as a case of betrayal that shocked us both to the core".

Great story telling

I could not put this down, read it on my day off. The courage and persistence this women had to expose and try to get justice after being deceived by her psychopath husband was amazing.

great companion to the book

I read this book and found it hard to put down. I don't listen to many audible books but was intrigued by this one since the author was going to use her own voice. I can't imagine a better narrator. She adds so much to the well-written book. Even though I knew the story, I listened all the way to the end. Worth it!

I wish I were an attorney, advocate for women!

Miss Yve, I applaud you for your strength, determination, amazing good sense, intelligence, fortitude, amazingly beautiful mothering ... an so much more! I love your writing style. I felt like I was there with you and fighting for justice. I never talked back to a "book" as much as I have with yours. Your narration was flawless! As soon as I heard that there is a sequel, I jumped on here to find it. Why, why, why is there so much favoritism for the perpetrator and so much examination of the victim ? How on earth did you end up with Penelope for an attorney in the end? I swear, I wanted to give her a "wake up and do your job" slap, right across her scowling face! Thank you for telling your story and I REALLY hope Maurice gets his... sooner or later. What a piece of $#!T!

Unbelievable story

This poor woman went through unnecessary HELL!!!! I too was married to a Bigamist, however I never pressed charges against him. I was too young and naive to do so at that time. I can only imagine what I would have had to endure if I had gone through with it. Our baby was still born, so thankfully unlike this woman, no children had to suffer like hers did! I hope "M" one day will get what he deserves!
