The Other Mrs. Miller

By: Allison Dickson

Narrated by: Holly Palance

Two women are watching each other.

Phoebe Miller isn't sure when the rusty car started showing up in the cul-de-sac she calls home, or why its driver would be spying on her. What could be interesting about an unhappy housewife who drowns her sorrows in ice cream and wine and barely leaves her house?

Only one knows why.

When a new family moves in across the street--the exuberant Vicki, who just might become the gossipy best friend Phoebe's always wanted, and her handsome college-bound son, Jake, who offers companionship of a different variety--Phoebe finds her dull routine infused with the excitement she's been missing. But with her head turned she's no longer focused on the woman in the car. And she really should be...

An addictive domestic thriller for fans of The Last Mrs. Parrish and The Couple Next Door, The Other Mrs. Miller serves up a delicious brew of dark secrets and stunning plot twists that will keep you captivated until the very last page.

Good

Enjoyed this book - slow in a few spots but not bad. I recommend this book.

Wow, Surprising and Unpredictable.

I almost didn't get this because of the bad reviews about the narrator. And I do agree it was a mismatch for narration, but the story was so good that I am so very glad I got it.. Yes, story may be a bit far fetched but that's the great thing about some books. i like when you think you know whats going to happen. TWIST. I enjoyed it.

Not for me

I can't really think of a good reason for not liking this book. I did not care for the story line, or the narrator's voice, but those are personal opinions that others probably wouldn't agree with me. Just because it is not my particular style, certainly does not mean it is not a good book for other people. That is why I said 3 stars.

Slow moving at first

Picks up pace halfway through. Twisty and not what I expected. Great ending. Will definitely read more by author.

Great until the end.

It was good...but the ending was a bit of a let down. The Bachman part was odd.
