The Marriage Vendetta

A Novel

By: Caroline Madden

Narrated by: Flora Montgomery

A darkly funny feminist debut about a resentful stay-at-home wife and her vindictive marriage therapist

Revenge is in session.

Eliza Sheridan is at her wits' end with her husband, Richard. Not only did he uproot her and their daughter Mara's lives for his career, but he also hasn’t honored the one thing he promised before moving to Dublin: that he’d make more time for his wife and daughter.

So when Eliza receives an anonymous photo of Richard with another woman, she's just about ready to file for divorce. As a last resort, she pays a visit to a marriage therapist, Ms. Early, who Eliza quickly learns is a bit…alternative in her approach. As their sessions unfold, Ms. Early spurs her on to commit a series of vengeful acts against Richard—each more bizarre than the last—all in the name of “re-training” her husband. But when therapy takes a risky turn, suspicions grow and alliances shift... How far is Eliza willing to go to save her marriage?

Interesting, funny, irreverent

This was a great adventure with an unexpected twist of an ending. I loved the voices of the actors.

Very well narrated book- kept me guessing til the end

This book was very easy to get into, to stay with and I didn’t guess who did what! The story was, for the most part, believable. I didn’t find the end very satisfactory, but it didn’t take from the overall experience. The narrator is excellent.

So Satisfying

Loved it! The main character represents so many women out there who need a Ms. Early.

wow

I only listened because of Good Reads challenges, but I am glad I did. I truly have to say this book was pretty good. I can't wait to read more by this author.
