The Daughter-in-Law

De: Shalini Boland

Narrado por: Katie Villa

Your new husband has a shocking secret. Would your mother-in-law kill to protect it?

From the moment I meet my new mother-in-law in her beautiful country house, she makes it clear I’m not welcome. Lilian Fletcher hates me for marrying her precious boy on a golden beach far away from her.

Starting our marriage living in the Fletchers’ family home is a nightmare. Then I discover Seb was married before and his first wife is dead. I wonder why the man I love didn’t tell me the truth. And I wonder what happened to her: the woman who came before me. How did she die?

Lilian’s steely blue gaze follows me everywhere. Then the accidents start to happen, and I know she is behind them. It starts with small things, like a dropped birthday cake, a spilt glass of wine. But then my mother-in-law accuses me of something terrible. This woman is determined to get me out of her son’s life.

Now I wish I’d never met my handsome, clever husband. Or come to this luxurious house that feels more like a prison.

But I have secrets too. And no-one knows who I really am….

From the USA Today best-selling author, this totally addictive psychological thriller will keep you guessing all the way to the final shocking twist. Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train, Gone Girl and The Wife Between Us.

just okay

Not up to Shalini Boland's level of writing..a bit of a lazy predictable story.
Narration always good by Katie Villa

Ending not what I expected….

This book took a while to get there and I was getting tired of some aspects in getting to the point. However, once it got there it was like whoa! Expected a lot more from the ending though. Performance was EXCELLENT!

Great suspense story

Shalini Boland really knows how to draw me into a story. I think I know what's going to happen but I'm surprised every time. Katie Villa is a wonderful narrator.

Interesting….

Takes a while to get interesting then theres a bizarre twist almost at the end, its not expected and kind of weird but in the end all ties together. Great narrator so thats a plus

I liked this

I really liked it I just wish it had been a bit longer. I feel like it was too soon for the revelation. But loved it

Several Great Twists!!!!

I really loved this story! I especially loved the multiple surprising twists in the story! I’m usually able to figure out the twists way ahead of time, but I didn’t see these ones coming at all! Another great story by Shalini Boland!!!

Surprising

Didn’t see those twists coming. You think you have an idea, but you don’t! Enjoyed it very much

Loved it❤️

Storyline was somewhat familiar with a great twist at the end. Narration was very good and did not distract from the story.

compelling family drama

"The Daughter-in-Law" is a compelling family drama that I rate four stars. This book delves into the complexities of relationships and the intricate dynamics within a family. The story revolves around the evolving relationship between a mother and her daughter-in-law, highlighting the clashes and bonds that form over time. The character development is well-executed, and the author delves deep into the emotions and motivations of each character. While the pacing is generally good, there were moments when the plot felt somewhat predictable. Nonetheless, it's a thought-provoking exploration of family ties and expectations, making it a solid choice for readers who enjoy domestic dramas.

Such a Good

Love the author and narrator! Please Listen all the way to very end! So good!
