From Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen comes the next hit audiobook thriller, an instant New York Times best seller!

When you listen to this audiobook, you will make many assumptions.

You will assume you are listening to a story about a jealous ex-wife. You will assume she is obsessed with her replacement - a beautiful, younger woman who is about to marry the man they both love. You will assume you know the anatomy of this tangled love triangle. Assume nothing.

Twisted and deliciously chilling, The Wife Between Us exposes the secret complexities of an enviable marriage - and the dangerous truths we ignore in the name of love.

Listen for the truth between the lies.

This audiobook contains a bonus interview with the authors.

Critic reviews

"Julia Whelan reads the novel in her low, pleasant voice, moving down a register to capture Richard's infuriating condescension and lightening slightly for the younger Emma. With its perfidious turns, this escapist entertainment is a fine example of the 21st century's more cynical version of the O. Henry ending." (The Washington Post)

"Readers who were enthralled by B.A. Paris's Behind Closed Doors and Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl will love the skewed psychology and shifting perspectives in this domestic thriller." (Library Journal)

"A fiendishly clever romantic thriller in the vein of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train. This one will keep you guessing." (Anita Shreve, New York Times best-selling author of The Stars Are Fire)

I cannot pin point what I did or didn’t like about this book .. it’s was just okay for me.. the reader of this book should not be doing the “man”parts of the reading .. I found it extremely annoying .. she made the “man” parts sound like he was just stupid . Please have someone else read those parts .

Was just ok for me

Great book. I had part 1 sorta figured out in the first 2 hours or so but didn't expect everything else. It's in the style of Gone Girl but different plot of course. I recommend to anyone!

A Twisty One!!

The story line was decent but predictable -- and very long and I was so happy when it was over.

Christian Grey without the sex room

If you could sum up The Wife Between Us in three words, what would they be?

I am a fan of the narrator Julia Whelan which is why I purchased the book, but I kept feeling that this story was just too familiar. There were a few good plot twists but overall it was a similar retelling of the rich controlling husband with the young naive bride. Found myself fast forwarding to hold my attention.

Incredibly similar to "The Last Mrs. Parrish"

The authors did a good job writing this book but I’m soooo tired of these “Is she or isn’t she crazy” stories. I think I will have to avoid the bestseller recommendations for a while.

Ughh...

The book was kind of confusing to follow. I got midway through the book before I began to catch on. I liked the end of the book, it was a huge plot twist.

IT WAS OK.

First part of story dragged on. The main twist felt obvious to me so it was not fun. Then all the twists at the end seemed overdone and not all of the stories were tied up nicely, lots of loose ends and questions. Julia Whelan does a great narration which is why I probably listened to the entire thing. Perhaps it is better in print as the narrative changes a couple of times and it is kind of awkward in audiobook. Overall, not worth the hype if you ask me but a decent read if you have nothing else to do.

Obvious twist, too many narratives

Where is Duke!?! Where is he!? I need answers. I’m making a shirt and starting a campaign. I need closure.

I just wanna know....

I really enjoyed the twists and turns in this novel. The story was told at a good place and this one had me listening anytime I had a free five minutes. I couldn't wait to hear more!

Great book to listen to!
