About this listen
A psychological thriller from the bestselling author of The Passenger and Til Death Do Us Part.
Lucy is a successful businesswoman who loves nothing more than to spend her time competing in fun challenges with friends, colleagues, and even strangers. But she might just have met her match when she encounters Jess, a woman who is not used to losing at anything.
Jess is very much like Lucy when it comes to a fondness for competition, only a more extreme version, and as the pair become friends, it's clear that a rivalry is developing between them in the fields of business, love, and beyond.
But as the lives of both women become more intertwined, that rivalry becomes more intense, and by the time it reaches the point of their friendship breaking down, it seems that there is nothing either woman won't do to come out on top.
Two women. Only one winner.

Story
Amanda is a hardworking single mum, completely focused on her job and her daughter, Louise. She’s been saving for years, and now, finally, she can afford to give up work and chase her dream. But then, on her commute home from London to Brighton, she meets a charming stranger - who seems to know everything about her. He delivers an ultimatum. She needs to give him the code for the safe where she keeps her savings before the train reaches Brighton - or she’ll never see Louise again.

Story
Alison is happily married to Graham, or at least she is until she discovers that he has been cheating on her. Her husband has broken the vows that he made on their wedding day. How could he do it? It takes Alison a while to figure it out, but at least she has time on her side. Only that is where she is wrong. A devastating diagnosis means the clock is ticking faster now, and the betrayed wife must act fast if she wants revenge on her cheating partner. Alison does just that, implementing a dangerous and deadly plan, and it's one that will have far-reaching consequences.

My husband is a doctor. He’s smart and charming, and everybody trusts him. Except me. On the surface, it looks like I have it all–the perfect marriage, the perfect husband, the perfect life. But it’s far from the truth. Doctor Drew Devlin is not the respectable figure he makes out to be. The reason we moved to this beautiful, old property with a gorgeous view of the sea was because we needed to put our past behind us. It should’ve been a fresh start for us both.

Couldn’t finish
I started the book, stopped it and then came back to it. Unfortunately, as I neared the end of the book, I got the message that I needed to become an audible member. I knew the book was only available until the end of October, so I must have missed the deadline. Very disappointed that I couldn’t finish, though I thought I had another day.

fun and ridiculous!
This book was vey funny and ridiculous at the same time, the two main characters were too much alike. Jess and Lucy took competitiveness to the extreme. These two did some crazy antics in order to do one another. I can’t root for anyone because they both were ridiculous, but I did enjoy reading about them. Another good read by the author and I will be reading more.

I couldn’t believe there was such a term such as toxic discipline until I listened to this book! It enlightened me on the traits of severe competitive personalities and the primal urges compelling such great lengths. I am a fan of Hurst’s work! Clever storytelling!
