The Wife Between Us Audiobook— narrated by Julia Whelan
Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen hand you a jealous ex-wife, a younger fiancee, and a wealthy man three weeks out from his second wedding, then demonstrate that you assembled the story wrong. The Wife Between Us is a domestic thriller about coercive control with a mid-book turn that pays for its setup.
Why the audiobook wins
Julia Whelan is the reason to take this one as a listen. The novel's whole method is arranging true statements so the audience assembles a false picture, and the method only survives if the voice never tips its hand. Whelan holds that line for eleven and a half hours. Nothing in her delivery of the early chapters betrays what the later ones will do to them.
She also has to keep two registers apart without letting either curdle into an impression, which is harder than it sounds and is where a lesser reader would give the game away in the first hour. When the turn arrives you will want to scrub back and audit her. Do it. The performance holds up under inspection, which is the specific compliment this book is fishing for.
Eleven and a half hours, one credit, and a second reading built into the same file.
