A seemingly ordinary book group holds deadly secrets in this collection of connected stories from Karin Slaughter, Lee Child, B. A. Paris, and more of the world’s leading thriller writers.

Dr. Margaret Richter has it all. She’s rich, thanks to her best-selling self-help books. She has a beautiful home in Cape Cod overlooking the beach. And she has a monthly book club that everyone is dying to get invited to.

Literally.

Because behind the crystal wine glasses, the fine linens and the catered hors d'oeuvres lies a tangled web of secrets, of deceit, of murder. No member of the book club is innocent—and many are guilty.

And the person with the most to hide is Margaret Richter herself.

With an introduction by best-selling author Jennifer Weiner, The Twisted Women’s Book Club was created in partnership with International Thriller Writers. Special thanks to Joseph Finder, Gregg Hurwitz and Kimberley Howe.

Full cast of narrators include: Lauren Ezzo, Stephanie Epstein, Jenn Lee, Brittany Pressley, Cindy Kay, Nancy Wu, Nicola F. Delgado, Emily Lawrence, Karen Murray, Adepero Oduye, Daniela Acitelli

Great after understanding the premise!

I wasn’t sure what was going on until about a third of the way in. I will probably listen to again as it was thoroughly enjoyable. At certain points I HAD to listen to each end of the stories I was on the edge of my seat.

Original. Thought provoking. Just good fun.

This book was different from anything I’ve read before and I read (well listen) allll the time. Some of the authors I’ve read and one or two were new to me. And how the entire compilation tied together with the interwoven stories of broken people or people who break things was very well done.

what a great concept!

i absolutely LOVED this! what a fantastic concept! this is a must- listen if you enjoy murder books and/or any of these authors.

Twists and Turns

At first, it was hard to follow with the different stories, however, I ended up enjoying the entire thing once I got the hang of it. Was disappointed when it was over.

Don’t give up! It gets good.

Fun read. Just takes time to not be confused, but then it gets interesting. Love Karen Slaughter though.

Clever, interconnected, a taste of multiple authors

Like many other reviewers, I loved this. Loved each individual story and how they played off each other, and the unexpected twists were so fun. I do wish the main character met a different end, and that the loose ends were all explained, as that would have been more satisfying. But overall different and extremely enjoyable.

Interwoven Story Goodness

Each story was great on its own but when it together they make for an even greater thriller.

Really enjoyed the short story format.

I enjoyed the stories, the short story- style format and how all of the stories were in some way related to each other. At first I was like what is going on? but I did read a previous review and so I was at least expecting it a little. which was helpful. otherwise I might have given up too early. I did expect a different ending. Overall, I enjoyed the book and found it suspenseful. I was anticipating a different ending.if you like thrillers, it's a nice change of pace.

Entertaining!

Such a great listen! Love that a group of authors created this amazing listening experience!

Yes, Twisted

Kept getting better as more was revealed. Totally satisfying by the end. Worth your time.
