It's One of Us

By: J.T. Ellison

Narrated by: Julia Whelan

“A smart, taut, mind-blowing thriller full of heartbreak and betrayal that moves along at breakneck speed. Readers will be obsessed!”
—Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of Just The Nicest Couple

Everybody lies. Even the ones you think you know best of all . . .

Olivia Bender designs exquisite home interiors that satisfy the most demanding clients. But her own deepest desire can’t be fulfilled by marble counters or the perfect rug. She desperately wants to be a mother. Fertility treatments and IVF keep failing. And just when she feels she’s at her lowest point, the police deliver shocking news to Olivia and her husband, Park.

DNA results show that the prime suspect in a murder investigation is Park’s son. Olivia is relieved, knowing this is a mistake. Despite their desire, the Benders don’t have any children. Then comes the confession. Many years ago, Park donated sperm to a clinic. He has no idea how many times it was sold—or how many children he has sired.

As the murder investigation goes deeper, more terrible truths come to light. With every revelation, Olivia must face the unthinkable. The man she married has fathered a killer. But can she hold that against him when she keeps such dark secrets of her own?

This twisting, emotionally layered thriller explores the lies we tell to keep a marriage together--or break each other apart . . .

The best so far!!!!!

I absolutely love this audiobook! My new addiction is listening while I drive to and from work. This by far has been my favorite!! What makes it so wonderful is the writing by the author coupled with the fantastic reading by the narrator. Both together superb.

Beautifully written

This mystery stands out as one that is well written with excellent character development. Although the ending is not as clearly obvious as it could have been — it makes sense given the characters & writing style. Nevertheless, if the reader pays attention to the character monologues & motivations the ending is quite clear & well thought out.

Best thriller of 2023!

I listen to 3-4 books per week and this ranks up there as the top thriller I’ve listened to this year. Full of twist and kept me guessing right to the end.

So amazing

I’ve been waiting for the release of this book and I couldn’t stop listening. This is perfectly put together with twists and tons of suspense!

One of Us

This booked had me hooked from the get-go. I loved the different points of view.
