About this audiobook
"A couple tries to rekindle their relationship through a romantic weekend getaway . . . but everything goes awry. . . . Dark and extremely funny." —
Scots Magazine
This audiobook is narrated using advanced digital voice technology for clear, natural-sounding storytelling.
Struggling with their marriage, midlife empty-nesters Colleen and Andrew plan to spend a week in an isolated cottage—just the two of them. But with a landlord named Wolf who lives next door and won't leave them alone, the couple start to feel like there are three people in their relationship.
Still, they are determined to make a valiant effort to overcome this marital crisis. However, with both of them engaging in secret communications with others, they're starting off on shaky ground. And with Wolf's behavior growing ever more unsettling, it's possible that leaving early would be a good idea. If only their car hadn't broken down . . .
"Full of cutting insights into the reality of long-term relationships but not at all short on heart-warming humour,
The Wolf in the Woods is a sometimes sinister but tenderly told tale." —
The Independent
