Summary

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.

Excellent!

This was so good. Well developed characters throughout the series. Clever / horrible crimes and criminals. And James Lailey is such a good narrator.

The Stranger's Wife.

Loved it and think you will to if you like a good crime story.
Well narrated by a very competent reader whos voice dosen't become irritating performing any of the characters as sometimes does with other narratives.
personally it was good enough to make me search for other books by the same author and if possible the same narrator.
Hence why I gave it 5 ***** in all areas. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Different

Not your regular murder story. Enjoy it, would recommend. Nicely woven tale, thankful for a 'normal life'.
