About this listen

From the global no.1 bestselling author of We Play Games and Secret Sister comes a dark and twisted psychological thriller about loyalty, betrayal, and the lengths we'll go to protect the ones we love. Narrated by the multi BAFTA award-winning Sheridan Smith (star of Mrs Biggs and Gavin & Stacey).

Maya Stone is the perfect politician's wife. She supports her husband at every turn. The camera loves her, the country loves her, most of all – he loves her.

As the country heads towards a general election, the Stones are set to take the polls by storm. But when a body is discovered in their back garden, the media spotlight turns its glare on the couple who had it all.

As their picture-perfect life starts to unravel, Jeremy claims it’s nothing more than political foul-play. But when Jeremy is formally arrested, Maya finds herself at the centre of a web lies that stretches far beyond her worst nightmare.

With no one to turn to, and each ally an enemy, Maya begins tugging at a truth so devastating it will come to re-define everything she knew and everyone she loved.

Because some lies will push even the most devoted wife to do the most unspeakable acts.

Featuring a supporting cast, including: Rupert Darley, Luke Francis, Simon Harvey, Mark Holgate, Daphne Kouma, Geoff Leesley, Gina Murray, Alisdair Simpson, Ashley Tucker and George Weightman
