About this listen

The instant top 10 best seller

Can you guess who killed Jamie Lawrence?

Late one night, three women share secrets.

They barely know each other, but they all know Jamie Lawrence. They know what he's guilty of. And they agree something must be done.

But as their plan spirals out of control, they begin to doubt themselves...and each other. Then Jamie is found dead. And suddenly everything is at stake. As lies are unravelled and truths exposed, two urgent questions emerge:

Who is really guilty?

And who will have to pay?

Great listen from start to finish. Lots of surprises along the way. Characters were believable & larger than life.

Great read

I loved this book. The characters were believable and flawed and the story had me gripped from the beginning. One of the most interesting aspects were the blurred lines of right and wrong. When is something wrong to one person but may not be to another? Does the wrongdoing of one person make vengeance acceptable? The book has left me thinking things through long after I finished it. The narrator was also excellent.

Great writing. Characters beautifully observed.

Have had 100+ books since giving up on radio listening and taking to Audible... and this is in my top 2. Superb narration. Guess this will be snapped up for tv series.

It’s … ok!

Quite an entertaining story but full of cliches and annoying references to Addison Lee who must surely have sponsored this book! I’ve read better books by this author.

Disappointed, Piers Morgan selling pitch

Well, what to say. Not sure. Would I recommend, no. Sorry Piers. Nothing special and I should have paid more attention to other reviewers as to celebrity enhancement

Well blow me down with a feather!

You'll never guess who the baddie is from the first to the last word! A brilliantly written book, hopefully, there are many more to come.
Excellent read from an old bag who's hard to please.
Well done Celia.
Great narration Naomi
