Publisher's summary

Appearances can be deceiving...

After a whirlwind romance and three years of marriage, I’d tried to be a good wife.

But Tom, my husband, is always watching, controlling my every move. He chooses my clothes, my hairstyle, even instructing what and how much I’m allowed to eat – just ten measly mouthfuls.

I’ve become isolated from those I love, forbidden to work and stuck at home to fulfil his every whim.

My identity along with my life is long gone.

I am slowly suffocating but I know Tom will never, ever let me leave alive.

A chance encounter with Savannah changes everything. Tom couldn’t tear his eyes away from her. Could she be my saviour?

Could my husband’s desire for another woman be the answer to my prayers, to my freedom?

Bestseller Gemma Rogers is back with another gripping, page-turning thriller. Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty, Shari Lapena and Lisa Jewell.

Kept me hooked

Anything read by Imogen Church is amazing but combine her with Gemma Roger’s incredible writing and you have one of the best audibles ever.

Quite possibly her best yet!

Love Gemma Rogers, and if you’re a fan of psychologic domestic thrillers, this is your jam and a must read!

The performance

I like the narrator’s performance, but the story doesn’t make much of sense to me, especially the main character, the victim of this domestic abuse story.

So good!

I was infuriated at the weakness of this woman. She was pathetic. I couldn’t help but like her though. I finished this book in a day. Couldn’t stop listening. I’m hard to please and this one lived up to its rating. I very much enjoyed it and didn’t want it to end.

Great but too much explicit sex

Engrossing story with excellent performance. Didn’t care for explicit sex or the not totally clear ending.

I read in one sitting!

I wish I could afford to hire Imogen Church to narrate all the books I want to read. Good read, Imogen and Gemma pair nicely together.
