About this listen

'A twist to rival Gone Girl left me gasping' KATY BRENT

––––––––––––––

Meet Emma. Emma is sick.

She can’t work because of a neurological condition, so is stuck in her family’s tiny council house.

Emma is sick of being told to ‘get over it’.

Her stepfather, her doctors, strangers – everyone has an opinion.

Emma is sick of being the other woman.

Her boyfriend Adam is perfect: he’s got a great job and an amazing home. His wife Celeste is the problem.

Emma is sick of being underestimated.

All she needed was a target. And now she has Celeste…

Emma is sick. Just not in the way you thought.

––––––––––––––

Struggled with the first part and the narration of Emma. Really enjoyed the plot as the story progressed and less focus on Emma and her disability. As someone with FND I appreciated the inclusion. Loved the ending.

Brilliant book with a twist I didn’t see coming. Loved the well developed characters. There’s a ‘strangers on the train’ element, which was clever and interesting. Great narrators as well. This a new author for me and hope there’s more to come.
