About this listen
Bestselling author Julia Spiro's Such a Good Mom is a brilliant standalone mystery that's the perfect beach listen. In the heat of summer, a murder on Martha's Vineyard rocks one new mom to the core, leaving her to search for answers.
"For those looking for a quick listen light on mystery, this audio shines in its sympathetic and honest characterization of a new mom going through the baby blues.”—Booklist
With a healthy newborn baby, a devoted husband, a successful career, and a busy life on Martha’s Vineyard, Brynn Nelson should be the happiest she’s ever been. But Brynn is struggling. Her husband, Ross, grows more distant by the day, and the challenges and exhaustion of postpartum make Brynn feel like she’s slowly losing pieces of herself to motherhood. Pieces that she might never get back.
But it’s summer on the Vineyard, a beacon for wealthy visitors, and a place so beautiful that it seems immune to tragedy and crime. Except for locals, like Brynn, who know all too well that tragedy can strike at any point. And this time, it hits close to home when a friend of the family is found washed ashore. Dead. And Brynn’s already hectic life is turned upside down when Ross is arrested for the crime.
Left reeling with more questions than answers, Brynn’s only path forward is to find out who really killed Cecelia Buckley, even if it means it was her husband. She’s not sure who she’s able to trust anymore. And with the dizzying, endless cycle of sleepless nights, diapers, and bottles, Brynn’s not even sure she can trust herself. She’s not sure of anything anymore, but she won’t stop until she finds the truth.
Bestselling author Julia Spiro is known for writing characters that listeners instantly connect to. With Such a Good Mom, Spiro brings the real and layered Martha’s Vineyard to life through the eyes of a new mom trying to get her family out of the eye of the storm that is a murder investigation.
A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

When Abby steps foot on Isla Colel, she isn’t sure what—if anything—she’ll find. She only knows that she needs to see the place where her fiancée, Eszter, died to try and make sense of the tragic accident. The island is nothing like Abby expected: Though it was once a bustling tourist hub, a hurricane has left it a shell of its former self, with only a handful of residents remaining. Even the once-daily ferry to the mainland now runs every week or so. There, Abby befriends an alluring group of expats, but her sense of unease surges.

This is the day my life changes forever. It started so normally. The alarm went at 7am. My husband made bacon and pancakes for me and our seven-year-old daughter, the kitchen full of chatter and laughter. He gave me a quick kiss, told me he loved me, grabbed his wallet, and rushed off to work. Just an ordinary day. Until I get the call from the school. It was Tom’s turn to pick up our daughter. He must be held up for some reason. I find Tom’s phone under our bed. Now I know there’s something seriously wrong. I scroll through his messages. A text sent late last night: I KNOW EVERYTHING.

Critic reviews
“[Such a Good Mom] excels in portraying the social dichotomy that is life in an expensive resort town. . . Absorbing and satisfying.”–First Clue
“With a plot that moves as swiftly as the currents off Martha's Vineyard, Such a Good Mom is a rollicking fun mystery that makes one point abundantly clear: the only thing harder than motherhood is knowing who to trust. A twisty ride that's not to be missed.”–Jamie Day
“A juicy peek into one of America's most exclusive summer communities, and a hug for any new mom in over her head. Written with unsparing honesty, insight, and the yummy details only an insider would know, Such a Good Mom is a rich, suspenseful exploration of marital trust, the myth of the \"perfect\" mom, and the costs of having it all.”–Emma Brodie
