About this listen

This program is read by actor Sophie Rundle, who played Ada Shelby on Peaky Blinders.

Before love at first sight, there were things no one saw.

Annie never much believed in love. That is, until meeting Mark. After crossing paths on morning commutes, they connect at a group counseling session for trauma survivors. Each recognizes something in the other, though both hide their own troubled pasts.

It’s a whirlwind romance that propels Annie through their courtship, all the way to her wedding day—a day she couldn’t have predicted for herself once upon a time yet now feels surer about than anything in her life.

But as Annie stands at the altar, casting her eyes over the rows of well-wishers, she spots a stranger in the crowd, and she soon learns that her new life isn’t going to be the happily ever after that she had planned. Who is the stranger at the wedding? What really happened to Mark’s first wife? And was Annie and Mark’s meeting as random as it first appeared, or is something more sinister at work?

A sizzling thriller, A. E. Gauntlett's The Stranger at the Wedding will make you think twice before saying “I do.”

A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.

Critic reviews

Selected for Zibby's Summer Reading List

"An un-put-downable thriller about a couple whose relationship unravels on their wedding night. ... Gauntlett moves fluidly between past and present ... without once allowing the pace to flag. By the time the explosive finale arrives, readers may find they’ve been up all night."Publishers Weekly, starred review

"A terrific slow burn of a thriller with beautifully constructed twists. I thoroughly enjoyed The Stranger at the Wedding."–Sarah Pekkanen, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Wife Between Us and The Golden Couple

"Sharp, shocking, twisting and twisted. The Stranger at the Wedding is darkly thrilling, clever and unsettling."–Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of We Begin at the End

Don't waste your money or credit. Premise had potential but was horribly slow and boring.

Worst book ever.

I disliked everything. Neither the narrative or the characters made any sense or were believable.

Too weird for words

I was anticipating a terrific thriller with a myriad of twists and unexpected detours. What I got was a preposterous, ridiculous storyline masquerading as a psychological study of obsessive derangement.
