    About this audiobook

    From the bestselling author of The Marriage Lie comes a riveting new novel of suspense about a woman who must decide just how far she’ll go to escape the person she once loved

    Beth Murphy is on the run…

    For nearly a year, Beth has been planning for her escape. She's thought through everything -- a new look, new name and new city -- because one small slip and her husband will find her.

    Sabine Hardison is missing…

    A couple hundred miles away, Jeffrey returns home from a work trip to find his wife, Sabine, is missing. Wherever she is, she’s taken almost nothing with her. Her abandoned car is the only evidence the police have, and all signs point to foul play.

    As the police search for leads, the case becomes more and more convoluted. Sabine’s carefully laid plans for her future indicate trouble at home, and a husband who would be better off with her gone. But are things really as clear cut as they seem? Where is Sabine? And who is Beth? The only thing that’s certain is that someone is lying and the truth won’t stay buried for long.

    Don't miss bestselling author Kimberly Belle's next deeply addictive thriller, The Personal Assistant—where she explores the dark side of the digital world when a mommy-blogger’s assistant goes missing!

      I found this book to be much more than a suspenseful thriller. It explored the ever present issue of domestic violence and the paranoia it causes in its victims. Well written and beautifully read.

    • 5/5
      Loved how I thought I had it figured out….. I did catch a few clues that didn’t add up but I didn’t even have a clue how it would’ve worked out.

    • 5/5
      I loved it. It held my interest. I recommend this book
    • 5/5

    • 5/5
      Just brilliant!!!
      I've heard three books now by this author each one excellent. This lady has a superb imagination. Can't wait to hear more... I'm a Big fan!!
    • 5/5
      A very unexpected turn which I loved!! A real thriller
    • 4/5
      This book was really good. Sometimes I felt like it was a little drawn out, but ultimately it was all worth it.
    • 5/5
      I would give this book more than 5 stars if I could. So well written, narrated, and the story was fantastic!!
    • 5/5
      This is the first Scribd audio book I couldn't stop listening too! Kept me interested to the very end. On to find more from this author.
    • 3/5
      Good story, good beginner domestic thriller, keeps you engaged and guessing until the big reveal.
    • 5/5
      I knew it!!! I loved the twist it was just what the book needed. Narration was awesome.
    • 5/5
      This is the best book l have heard so far on this site. Loved it .
    • 5/5
      Kimberly Belle is brilliant in this tale of domestic terror…

      “If you’re open… There is grace in uncertainty... In those moments of our greatest uncertainty, miracles happen.”

      KB is a genius. Because she did such a great job developing characters, making them believable and convincing—it gives the story a much tighter grasp on readers! Well done!!!

      ***I would caution those with PTSD resulting from domestic abuse either physical or psychological/emotional to proceed carefully and beware of potential triggers***
    • 2/5
      It’s disappointing. It’s like riding a balloon and you crashed.
    • 3/5
      It was ok. Wasn’t a total waste of time, but won’t necessarily recommend it. Just whatever actually.
    • 4/5
      Great book, about a missing woman and her husband, and a woman on the run from an abusive husband. A nice twist which some people may predict but it works well.
    • 5/5
      One of the best audio books I have listened to.
    • 5/5
      Fantastic up to the last word. Loved the twists and turns and the ending was powerful and stunning. Loved this audio book.
    • 3/5
      I liked the twist ending , however it just seemed to rushed ! it switches near the end leaving you to figure out what happened . your left cofused for a chapter or two.
    • 5/5
      I continually made excuses as to why I needed to keep listening to this audiobook! Dog walks, driving errands, housecleaning.... a superb thriller!
    • 3/5
      It was average. But thank God it was pretty short
    • 5/5
      You'd think you know where the story is heading but no, oh no! It surprised me even if I started to realize what's happening even before the reveal but it was perfectly timed still. It gave me the chills. Highly recommend this!
    • 3/5
      Not bad. 'The silent patient' did it better, as did, arguably, Agatha Christi's 'The death of Roger Ackroyd'.
    • 5/5
      Awesome twist even if it was a little drawn out at some points. It’s a good read
