mystery
Pippa and Gabe live at the top of a scenic cliff which is,
sadly, popular with jumpers. One night
when Gabe goes out to try to keep a potential jumper talking until the police
can arrive (as he’s done before), the jumper ends up falling to her death. This is, of course, devastating to Gabe but
Pippa also feels as if something was off with the interaction she saw between
her husband and the jumper.
The Soulmate is told from the perspectives of Pippa and the
jumper, Amanda. Obviously, right off the bat, the reader is made suspicious of
Gabe. However, it doesn’t take all that long for the reader to understand that
Pippa may not be so innocent herself. Sally Hepworth did a great job revealing
a little at a time and making the situation become ever more engrossing.
I’ve enjoyed Hepworth’s novels in the past and this
was another good one. Her stories are tending to become more twisty. This one
is about a family which seems perfect on the outside but is, actually, full of
problems. The situations made me want to keep listening to see the full
picture.
The audiobook narrators, Barrie Kreinik and Jessica Douglas-Henry, were both great. Both had
a nice variety of voices for the different characters and both did a great job
voice acting. I give them an A.
