Summary
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?

Terrible narrator i couldn’t listen
Liked the story as it’s not the usual run of the mill stuff but the narrator was so bad, switching between American and a very bad cockney accent it ruined the story for me

Good story terrible narration
I’ve listened to a few of Gillian Whites books now and think she is a really good author. I love how she writes about ordinary people going through extraordinary circumstances.
I think this author has been done a great disservice in the terrible narration of many of her books though. Please PLEASE Audible -get them re-recorded with good narrators the story’s are really worth it.
The narration in this one was truly heinous. An American or Canadian not sure..trying to do a book based around Newcastle is bad enough but her attempts at even a basic English accent sounded like she was taking the mickey. I only held out to the end as I liked the story.

The story was original
I loved the twists and turns of the novel, but the narrator was poorly chosen for this particular novel as her grasp of the character’s accent was at times, laughable.

weird narration
Interesting story. But the story is original...at last. So many derivative novels out there.

Narration not great
Liverpool accent...I think not. Too long for a fairly simple story. Full of stereotypes

BRILLIANT STORY AND CHARACTERS
What an absolutely brilliant book by one of my favourite authors. The narration is poor, an American doing an English accent poorly - no sign of a Liverpudlian accent. However, this is a very old audio and so I can forgive the makers of it. Despite the bad narration I was determined to listen.
Well this is another of Gillian White's fantastic stories and kept me gripped from start to finish. Great characters - ordinary people we meet in everyday life. More reflections of classes of people.
No spoilers but just to say the twist at the end shocked me !
