About this listen

This title contains mature themes, strong language, and sexual content. Listener discretion is advised.

Your husband’s dead. He’s never coming back. So why is he on a dating site asking you to go out with him?

Then

Linda has it all: a gorgeous home, a devoted husband, two loving daughters. But she throws it all away to chase an impossible dream.

Now

Linda is alone and penniless, living in a shabby rented flat. With nothing to lose, she signs up to a dating app for the over 50s. But the one man who responds to her profile, a man calling himself Tony Fortin, is not who he says he is.

Linda recognises him immediately. He’s Marcus, her second husband.

But that’s impossible. Marcus died eight months ago. He drowned off the coast of Corfu.

As Linda digs deeper, she discovers that the man she married second time around had been keeping secrets from her. Very dark secrets.

Now the one person who can help her is the person who has every reason not to get involved.

Her first husband.

Had promise but didn't deliver.

I enjoyed the first third, getting to know the characters, setting the scene... The pivotal Vincent. But then it was just repetition and constant referencing to the incident for hours.... The final third just got silly, too unrealistic, granted it didn't do the 'wrap it up in the last half hour', but it got more and more ludicrous...

characters where so unlikable

I liked the story and it was and easy read but so predictable and the main character was so unlikeable. she was a horrible selfish person who couldn't see her own faults but the book kind of made out she was the good one so this annoyed me.

Too long but an engaging monologue in places

This could have done with a good edit, I felt. I kept shouting ‘oh for goodness sake, get on with it!’ when the narrator questioned herself or repeated herself for the umpteenth time,

Different sort of story

It was hard work, I nearly gave up a number of times, glad I stuck with it but it was very drawn out.

Enjoyable listen

I really enjoyed this. The performance was excellent with a beautifully warm, rich voice. I guessed parts of the plot but didn’t expect the twists to contrast it. Worth a listen.

The Narration

What a thoroughly unpleasant bunch of people! I loved it but only because it was so ludicrous it was hilarious 😂
