About this audiobook

SOON TO BE A MAJOR FILM STARRING JULIA ROBERTS FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR 'A dazzlingly clever murder mystery, told backwards.' GILLIAN McALLISTER 'Deliciously dark.' JOHN MARRS 'Exhilarating' DANYA KUKAFKA 'Ingenious' LAURA LIPPMAN What if the only way to bury the truth is to bury your husband? The first attempt at killing her husband was the night of the dinner party. After forty years, Thom Graves has become an incredible disappointment to his wife, Wendy - he drinks too much, flirts with other women, and worst of all, is in danger of revealing their dark secret. But how far is Wendy willing to go to stop him? Starting at the end, and ending at the beginning, Kill Your Darlings is an ingenious mystery about two people's life together, and the secrets which fatally bind them. PRAISE FOR PETER SWANSON: 'A killer read with twist after twist.' JANICE HALLETT (on A Talent for Murder) 'One of the world's best crime writers. Nobody writes psychopaths like Swanson.' MARK EDWARDS 'Delicious . . . I defy you to stop reading once you begin.' New York Times (on The Christmas Guest)
