Summary

It’s Always the Husband...unless it’s the best friend.

The Top 10 Sunday Times bestseller

Kate, Aubrey and Jenny are inseparable at college – friends who promised they’d always be there for each other.

But twenty years later, their friendship is about to take a deadly turn.

Kate married the gorgeous party boy, Aubrey married up, and Jenny married the boy next door, but when one of the friends dies in shocking circumstances, will everyone assume that it’s always the husband? Or could it be the best friend?

It’s Always The Husband is the gripping debut which will keep you guessing until the very end.

Great twist

A twist I was not expecting. The story was rolling nicely. Good voices. Multi dimensional characters.

Some good parts but some bad

Not the best book I’ve read, the storyline was at points very unbelievable. It wasn’t a bad listen but it certainly wasn’t a great listen.

Average

Not any great surprises here... a slow unwinding if not very likeable characters and the interactions between them.

Justice Served. Beautiful Narrator

In love with Michelle Campbell all over again. I have never hated a heroine so much probably in my whole life. The End was so so satisfying, im walking around with a calm smile right now

Wasn't what I expected

Without giving too much away.....I expected this to be about a rocky marriage but instead it's about friendship that formed in college years and how it influenced the characters in their adult years. It switches back between past and present in quite a clear way and keeps you guessing right till the end.
