Summary
The chilling new psychological thriller from the bestselling author of I Am Watching You.
On a train with her husband, miles from home and their four-year-old son, Ben, Sophie receives a chilling phone call. Two boys are in hospital after a tragic accident. One of them is Ben.
She thought she could trust Emma, her new friend, to look after her little boy. After all, Emma’s a kindred spirit—someone Sophie was sure she could bare her soul to, despite the village rumours. But Sophie can’t shake the feeling that she’s made an unforgivable mistake and now her whole family is in danger.
Because how well does she know Emma, really? Should she have trusted her at all?
Time is running out. Powerless to help her child, still hours from home, Sophie is about to discover the truth. And her life will never be the same.

easy listening
this was a easy book to listen to, it didn't have me wanting to listen in one session, but did keep me interested. I didn't see the ending coming, which is always a bonus, but I did feel it was a bit rushed towards the end.

Every mothers nightmare
Chilling psycho thriller. Can a best friend really betray you in the worst way possible?

Not my favourite Teresa novel
The narrator wasn’t the best and I found myself disengaged at times.
The story was ok

Had potential....!!!
The story is potentially a really good one, however the jumping between times (before & now) & sometimes being from different characters perspective without being clear who's perspective it was made it quite difficult to follow in places (I think it took me twice as long to listen to as I kept having to rewind because I was confused!)
The narration was not great, quite rushed that again I struggled to follow in places but also the accents she did were absolutely awful! I couldn't tell if the police woman/PI were meant to be northern or Scottish!! I'm not fussy when it comes to narration, I can listen to most people without complaint as long as I can follow but I won't listen to this narrator again!
Otherwise fairly good story (from what I could understand!) & does all tie up well at the end though.

Great story but terrible accents
Not well read which is a shame as it is a great story with good twists.

Great story. Loved the narration.
I was hooked. The narrators voice was perfect for the story. Cannot understand the complaints.

Engaging read
Took this book on holiday. Good narration and well thought out characters. Excellent story. Would definitely recommend and will check out other novels by this author.

Yeah, I should have purchased the physical copy
so, this is not my usual genre but after 'i am watching you ' I immediately purchased 'the friend '... where to begin?
story is fantastic, kept me hooked and guessing throughout ... and I didn't suss it... fantastic writing.
however
I wish I had read this rather than chosen the Audible version... I had the Audible version of I Am Watching You and loved it however the choice of narrator for The Friend did not work for me.
The narration of the story is excellent, well paced but what let it down for me personally were the male voices and the accents ( unessacary accents for certain characters I think).
This may just be me... it may just be people who listened to the previous book.
This is my only negative, and it's not a negative really... it's a niggle... I do wish I had physically read this but I will not be put off an audiobook choice of mine is narrated by Henrietta Meire... all in all I enjoyed this

Very enjoyable
I really liked this book. Very good story and a twist at the end that I had not seen. Only one thing wasn’t very keen on the narration. Sometimes very stilted and jerky.
