I have not read or listened to any Nicci French before but thoroughly enjoyed this. At first I was a little unsure of the Narrators voice but as the story unfolded I thought it really suited the story. I was gripped from the minute I put it on was not disappointed with the ending!

I did not have a great deal of expectations when deciding to listen to this novel. In fact, I generally find Nicci French books to be rather too full of plot holes and absolutely stupid heroines. Against all my expectations, I did enjoy listening to this book, couldn't work out who was the villain and was kept guessing almost to the end. Recommended.

Good Plotting

like this one more than any other nicci french. lots of emotions discussed but a plot that hung together and was gripping until the end.

Plodding. Who cares what really happened? Not me. I quit with an hour to go. Better not to start.

I couldn’t be bothered finding out how it ended

Good story. Excellent narrator: very sensitively read. Nicci French always delivers a good plot. Thank you.

whilst i was ahead of the story in some parts and having not experienced such a gruesome plot, it still had me mesmerised with the authors twists and turns and in some areas red herrings!!! The reader too had just the right tone and inflection of the characters which in turn produced an excellent performance. Well done on showing the emotive mind of those left behind when dealing with loss.
very much appreciated.

Showing the other side of loss.

This book was a huge disappointment. I read the blurb and expected a fast moving thriller : a car crash resulting in the death of a husband and a mystery woman in the car. All the ingredients for a good 'read', not so, the book was slow, LEADEN in fact and the first half of the first download was given to exact descriptions of the sad activities which follow a bereavement. I ploughed through three hours thirty minutes before there was anything interesting. An early clue slipped into the story helped me guess the eventual guilty party and only the last forty five minutes proved compelling. This is a dull story, unusual for this excellent author. I have awarded the stars for the narration.

Not what I was expecting.....

Had me to the very end. Well written and well read. You knew from the very start that it would all turn out ok in the end.
You are taken step by step through what it's like for someone who is bereaved.

I've listened to two and read another of the Nicci French books. Latterly I've discovered that it's a husband and wife writing team. I've enjoyed them all, but have to say the savagery of the descriptions of murder and torture in them did rather give me the creeps. In contrast, "What to Do when Someone Dies" is much more of a thriller in the same sort of style as Robert Goddard. There is some murder in it but there are no gory descriptions. Instead it's mainly a widow's quest to find the truth over how here husband died. The authors' write sensitively about what it's like to lose someone you love and how it feels if you fear that person was deceiving you. The story is a real roller-coaster of clues and false leads and I certainly didn't see how it would end and couldn't stop listening to find out what happened next. Highly recommended.

Many twists and turns kept me listening
