The Day He Never Came Home

De: Andrew DeYoung

Narrado por: Erin Moon

To protect her family, one mother's lie of omission leads to another in this twisty, suspenseful domestic thriller, perfect for fans of Laura Dave's The Last Thing He Told Me.

She thought she knew her husband. She was wrong.

Regan Peters knows her husband John wants to give her and their children a good life. The long hours he puts in as a financial advisor prove his dedication, and despite how mysterious he is about his past, that's been enough for her to get through the hard days. Until the FBI shows up at their door, and Regan learns that her husband has been running a Ponzi scheme, is mixed up with dangerous criminals, and has been living under an assumed identity all these years. Everything she thought she knew about her life has been a lie.

That includes the outrageous birthday present John gifted her the day before he disappeared—a lake house, bought with cash, and put in her name only. With her life falling apart, Regan must make a split-second decision: does she tell the FBI about the house? Or does she buy some time to forge her own path to saving herself? But one compromise inevitably leads to another, and one dangerous secret builds on the next.

When her lies of omission to the FBI agents begin to raise questions, Regan becomes inextricably embroiled in John's crimes, the true extent of which is just beginning to be revealed. Now that her comfortable life is clearly over, Regan is learning she is capable of far more than she ever imagined. She will do anything to protect herself, her children, and their future. Anything.

Great story!

This book has a great pace, narrative, and voice. One of the best books I read this year!

Amazing!!

It will not disappoint and it will keep you wanting more. Thriller, shocking and heartbreaking all in one book.

Potentially good story poorly written

The storyline had good potential but I thought it was poorly written. Why is it necessary to use such foul language? Also, I felt like the book jumped all over the place and repeated things unnecessarily. It was as if my ADD brain had written it. Definitely disappointing.
