About this listen

Beth and Cath are leaving their husbands.

This is a story about two very different women.

One is wealthy and having an affair with a man who gives her the kind of love that her cold, detached husband does not.

One is living hand to mouth, suffering at the hands of a violent partner who would rather see her dead than leave him.

You may think you know these women already and how their lives will unfold.

Beth will live happily ever after with her little girl and her soulmate.

Cath will go back to her abusive husband.

And these two women will never cross paths.

But you will be wrong.

On the 3.15pm train from London to Bristol, Beth and Cath are about to meet and discover they share one shocking thing in common.

A clever, engrossing and absolutely enthralling listen about what really lies beneath the surface of a marriage. Fans of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train will be hooked on The Stranger’s Wife.

The story was good but had no twist in it. It is as plain as vanilla. You can surely skip this one, you'll miss nothing.

The climax dragged a lot

A good story, though the time scale thingie really irritated me initially. Especially since it was the audio book version and I would forget which came before and which after! But as the story progressed, it gradually improved. I honestly didn't like the performance all that much but it was tolerable.

Good story

The narrater is excellent. Amazing portrayal of emotions. Didn't like the climax much; could have been more thrilling given the threats

A good one overall

This series is quite well written and I am impressed by its delivery on audible. Excellently performed.

Well written, well performed

This narrative delves into the harsh realities of domestic violence and the abuse of the legal system. I find Riley's handling of Beth's situation particularly disappointing, as these unfortunate events are a direct consequence of a corrupt system orchestrated by those in power.

No crime is perfect, and neither is justice!
