As Long As We Both Shall Live

By: JoAnn Chaney

Narrated by: Christina Delaine

As Long As We Both Shall Live is JoAnn Chaney’s wicked, masterful examination of a marriage gone very wrong . . .

‘My wife! I think she’s dead!’ Matt frantically calls to park rangers, explaining that he and his wife, Marie, were out hiking when she stumbled on a cliff edge and fell into the raging river below. They start a search but aren’t hopeful: no one could have survived that fall.
It’s a tragic accident.

But when police discover Matt’s first wife also died in suspicious circumstances – a fire in their family home – they have a lot more questions for him.

Is Matt a grieving husband, or has he just killed his second wife? Detectives Loren and Spengler dig into the couple’s lives to see what they can unearth. And they find that love’s got teeth, it’s got claws, and once it hitches you to a person, it’s tough to rip yourself free.

So what happens when you’re done making it work?

Critic reviews

Unputdownable . . . This novel is anything but predictable. The female characters are forces of nature, and the plot twists are deliciously demented, a la Gone Girl and Big Little Lies

Deliciously dark plot twists come out of nowhere in this thriller about a marriage gone sour

A wicked page-turner, dripping in dark humor, and a hell of a ride you won’t realize you are on until it’s too late to get off . . . If you’re a fan of thrillers get thee this book now without knowing anything about it—trust me!

A nuanced and thoughtful writer . . . with echoes of Gone Girl
