About this listen

Wishing your husband dead isn’t a crime...

When you return from a work trip to find your husband dead in the pond, it’s best not to call him a liar and a cheat in front of the cops. Especially when you’ve spent the last few years telling anyone who’ll listen that you sometimes fantasize about killing him. It makes you look kind of, well, guilty.

Now I’m suspect number one for Nathaniel’s murder and the police are snooping around our perfect home. And the house is perfect because I designed it, down to the last marbled detail. You could say I designed our marriage, too. As soon as I saw Nathaniel—so handsome, successful, a surgeon—I knew I wanted him. Sadly our marriage wasn’t quite as perfect as our house. But whose is?

The cops want to talk to our daughters, our friends, even our staff. There’s the housekeeper, the cook, the pool cleaner, the dog walker. But like me, they were all out of town when he died. They won’t have anything to say about what happened. Certainly nothing that will suggest I had something to do with it...

A gripping and utterly compulsive story that will have you racing toward the final seconds. Fans of The Housemaid, The Perfect Marriage, and anything by Lisa Jewell will be up all night listening to The Lucky Widow.

Not my favorite

The narration wasn’t great, the story was boring and predictable, the storyline implausible. I wouldn’t waste a credit on this one.

Okay

It took me a while to get into the story. A lot of unnecessary ramblings and some things could've made it better, one being Gordon could've been old enough to be Nate's father. Now That would've been an interesting and believable twist if he's in his 60's and Nate on his late 30's. The book is full of unlikeable spoiled entitled people. Emma's really no better than Nate considering how she plotted to marry a rich man. Though it's cheesy and cringe in several areas, it's a decent read.

Good story very long story could have cut 20 chapters.

Please listen to the very end Emma will explain everything. I was about to be done with this book, something told me to listen to very end. I am glad I did
