Publisher's summary

My husband’s dead. They say my best friend did it.

I can’t believe it. Not Lisa. There’s no way she could have done something so terrible. I look around at her shaken family, her two devastated children and her shocked husband, as they watch the most important woman in their lives being arrested for murder…

I always thought Lisa was the perfect wife and mother. We’ve been best friends ever since I moved to Dragonfly Close. Her children call me Auntie Vic, we’re always chatting, laughing, and sipping her homemade lemonade in our back gardens. She would never do anything like this.

But then I remember the day I saw her at the coffee shop with Russell. That was the day I started watching her through the gap in my bedroom curtains and stole the key to her pristine house. I suspected she’d betrayed me, and maybe I was right.

I don’t believe she killed my husband, but now I can make sure she pays for what she did to me…

worth the credit

kept my attention all the way through. it was worth my last credit in terms of the story and narration. it might be considered a little predictable to someone who listens to as many books as I do, but even that didn't ruin or even dampen the journey.

Kept my interest through out

I listen to a lot of audiobooks and found this one to be very engaging, with empathetic, interesting characters that I cared about, I did figure out what was happening early on the story, but it didn’t stop me from thoroughly enjoying it
I recommend

Awesome Suspense

I finished this book within 12 hours. Some twists were guessed but very intense. Definitely did not predict all of them.

Not engaging

Slow and characters were not engaging. Was told just a tip of the iceberg, but never got down to the truly what happened details.

Meh

Waste of time but didn’t want to waste an opportunity to return an even worse book. I don’t know what it was about the book - I just didn’t care about any of the characters or what happened to them (except the child).
