About this listen
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing, read by David Pittu.
Introducing the next generation of domestic thriller...
Every marriage has secrets. Everyone has flaws. Your wife isn't perfect - you know that - but then again nor are you.
But now a serial killer is on the loose in your small town, preying on young women. Fear is driving your well-behaved young daughter off the rails, and you find yourself in bed late at night, looking at the woman who lies asleep beside you.
Because you thought you knew the worst about her. The truth is you know nothing at all.
PRAISE FOR MY LOVELY WIFE
"The twist at the end of the first chapter made me read through the night. Clever. Manipulative. Dark. Disturbing. What more can you ask for?"-Jane Corry, bestselling author of My Husband's Wife
"An assured and deliciously engrossing debut. You'll surely devour My Lovely Wife, but it will linger long after you've reached the last page." Sarah Pinborough, Sunday Times bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes
"You'll never look at your neighbors the same. I couldn't pull myself away from this story...Make sure you clear your schedule before you pick it up. Absolutely unputdownable." Liv Constantine, bestselling author of The Last Mrs. Parrish
"My Lovely Wife is a knockout. It's not just a novel about serial killers. It's family drama, about a marriage, about kids out of control, about infidelity, and about the news media; and it's also about the folks next door. It's an effortless page-turner." Publishers Weekly
"The twist at the end of the first chapter made me read through the night" Jane Corry

Samantha Downing has created a powerful disturbing, calculating and enveloping story of a Serial Killer that, whilst avid and seasoned readers of this genre of book will likely second guess certain elements, still shock and alarm at every turn.
It's content illustrates the different types of psychotic behaviour that clearly exist.
Superbly written by an author who uses language beautifully.
It is an outstanding narration by the renowned actor, David Pittu. The style in which he reads this story is nothing short of brilliant. He clearly read his 'script' from beginning to end before embarking on the recording.
I can't say more for fear of turning a review into a spoiler, but this is page turner of a book not to be missed. For me it's ending made perfect sense but is one that leaves the reader with much to consider.
It far outshines many other thrillers that I have recently read.

Personally I just couldn’t enjoy the narrator (just not for me), the American accent was so strong, and his voices of other characters put me off actually listening.
