Summary

This title contains mature themes, strong language, and sexual content. Listener discretion is advised.

Your husband’s dead. He’s never coming back. So why is he on a dating site asking you to go out with him?

Then

Linda has it all: a gorgeous home, a devoted husband, two loving daughters. But she throws it all away to chase an impossible dream.

Now

Linda is alone and penniless, living in a shabby rented flat. With nothing to lose, she signs up to a dating app for the over 50s. But the one man who responds to her profile, a man calling himself Tony Fortin, is not who he says he is.

Linda recognises him immediately. He’s Marcus, her second husband.

But that’s impossible. Marcus died eight months ago. He drowned off the coast of Corfu.

As Linda digs deeper, she discovers that the man she married second time around had been keeping secrets from her. Very dark secrets.

Now the one person who can help her is the person who has every reason not to get involved.

Her first husband.

Horrible Linda

What a nasty, selfish woman Linda is, she has no warmth about her at all. She deserved to be alone.

Felt like it never got going, but was an OK read

Not sure what exactly made this a little boring, but it felt like it never really got going.

Multiple plots

Enthralled start to finish a story of love, resilience and revenge. A page turner, so to speak!

Went on a bit too long

Overall an okay listen, some unnecessary repetitive narrative and the storyline seemed to drag on a bit. A few twists and turns here and there but not enough to hold my breath. I’d liked to have seen the main character a bit more savvy rather than flaky. However I think it ended well!

Her Second Husband
