About this listen

Alice Einstein - known as "Malice" to her former schoolfriends—likes to tell herself stories. There's a good one she's workshopping about how, despite once being a critically acclaimed literary novelist, she's ended up blocked and uninspired, living in her timid, conflict-averse sister Liesl's spare room. But then Liesl sends her an SOS worthy of a thriller novel. The horror! The horror! Sam is back. Sam, Liesl's wealthy ex-husband, vanished ten years ago, leaving her a chunk of money but no explanation. Sam is handsome, charming, manipulative . . . and now he claims he's sick. But Alice, with her experience of spinning tales, knows a liar when she sees one.

Haunted by a childhood tragedy that gave birth to the cruel nickname "Lethal", Liesl now specialises in saving things: dogs, children, sisters. Telling herself it's time she returned the favor, Alice engages the services of Brigid Quinn, a hardboiled local private investigator with a shady past, to help her get rid of Sam for good. But as the plot thickens, Alice begins to wonder if she knows anyone involved—most of all herself - quite as well as she thinks . . .

And Then I ran out of Patience

I liked B. Masterman's other books and was anxiously awaiting to listen to this one. Two sisters living together, one a fixer the other a helpless waif of a rescuer. A husband who returns after a 10 yr absence. The first 'stretch of logic' was the 10 yr absence and the sister not filing for divorce in that time. The bad husband returning with a terminal illness. Is he faking his sickness or is it really true he's going to die? The fixer sister believing he is still a bad man. When he almost shoots his fixer sister in law and there were no repercussions, everyone acting like it was OK no problem, I started to cringe. Logic started to sway, off balance to the consistent 'warning signs' that this man was a monster. The mysterious women he's seen with, the creepy conversations he has with his sister in law, him going berserk breaking things, and still the fixer sister says nothing to her sister the waif. He throws a child out of his mothers room (illegal aliens - waif sister rescues people and dogs) to rape the child's mother under the threat of the bad husband's going to tell ICE about them. When the fixer sister finds out about the rape and still does nothing, and when the bad husband tried to poison the child? that was it. It stretched beyond logic that this man was not reported to the police, all the secrets and lies in that house? It made me sad that I had wasted a credit. I stopped with 3 hrs and 49 minutes left.
