Rich Deceiver

A Novel

By: Gillian White

Narrated by: Dina Pearlman

Money changes everything in this darkly comic tale of romantic revenge. When shy, insecure Liverpudlian Ellie Freeman unexpectedly wins more than a million pounds in the football betting pools, she sees it as a way to transform the life of her bitter, frustrated, and, above all, distant husband Malcolm. She hides the news of her win from Malc, and uses the money to invest in a firm that will give her husband a better job than the warehouseman position he currently holds. And, indeed, the new job does make Malc a new man - a new man who suddenly envisions a life without Ellie. Can Ellie, too, become a new person? Can she become a stronger, more confident woman who is capable of winning her husband back…and is that even what she wants anymore?

Money doesn’t change everything

I liked the pace of the story, the narration and that the ending was unexpected. While I thought the story was improbable, I enjoyed it very much. I hated the ending, but it made me think about how lifetime influences are hard to shake.

Unbelievable

Surely nobody could be that stupid
And those ridiculous accents. They’re from LIVERPOOL so why the London accents. Utterly stupid story that could have been somewhat believable if it had a better ending
