A KATIE COURIC BOOK CLUB PICK • USA TODAY BESTSELLER • New York Times bestselling author Kimberly McCreight delivers a tour de force of character-driven suspense: the story of two women whose secrets and desires entrap them in a deadly love triangle.

“McCreight’s new stunner Someone Else’s Husband takes readers from the peaks of Mt. Kilimanjaro to the streets of Soho and finally to the most mysterious place of all—the human heart. I was seduced by each character and knocked sideways by each betrayal. McCreight’s talent is boundless.” —Amity Gaige, author of Heartwood


Gretchen Falk, a Park Avenue sophisticate born into great wealth and blessed with a storybook marriage, knows she lives a charmed life, and she’s not about to risk losing any part of it. That’s why she tried to convince Richard, her devoted husband and the father to their three children, not to join his old college friends on an expedition to the imposing peak of Mount Kilimanjaro. Little did she know that the beautiful artist climbing alongside him might prove the far greater danger.

Frankie Callahan’s dream of artistic success is within reach, with her career-making exhibition at a celebrated New York gallery only weeks away. If all goes well, the show will leave her financially independent, free of the tainted money that ties her to a past—and a man—she’s desperate to escape. To mark this new beginning, she is going to climb Kilimanjaro. But when she learns she’s the sole female accompanying a group of male friends, Frankie realizes that nothing about the trip will be as she expected. She certainly hasn’t counted on meeting anyone like the very charismatic, very rich, very married Richard Falk. By the time they descend—with one fewer in their group than when they began—they have lost more than they ever could have imagined.

Now, less than two weeks after their return to New York, Frankie’s East Village loft is a blood-soaked crime scene, and Richard has been charged with her murder. It falls to Gretchen to figure how the life she so carefully constructed could have imploded so completely. There are only two things she knows for sure: she’s the only woman Richard has ever loved, and he would never hurt anyone.

Someone Else’s Husband is the sweeping and suspenseful story of two women on a collision course with love—and with each other—in which no one is right and everyone is very, very wrong.

I loved the audio performances and format. The plot kept me guessing, and while I figured out some of the twists I definitely didn’t have it all!

Kept Me Guessing

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The book started out OK and then went downhill for me. It was repetitive and slow moving. The narration was fine, but characters were annoying.
I thought story was silly and I was able to predict who the villain was pretty quickly.

Predictable

I had trouble getting into the story initially. About halfway through, it does pick up and I enjoyed the second half.

Just okay

I liked the story telling format of integrating past with present. I loved the suspense of the story and then tension of the mountain climb. It left gaps as it proceeded which thankfully the author filled in over time.

Page turner & outstanding story!!
