“Better dead than divorced", responds a young wife to those who urge her to divorce her adulterous, manipulative, and abusing husband, who plans to kill her. She knows about his evil intentions, and she is urged to leave him and save her life, but her love, her devotion, and societal prejudice against divorced women make her stay. And dead she ends up by a commissioned assassin. Her cousin, a principled man, fights beyond his modest means in a corrupt system to have justice for her loss served.

Intriguing true crime novel
Revisado: 11-29-18
The author tells the real-life tale of his relative, presumed to have been murdered at the hands of her husband. Brilliantly narrated by Daniela Acitelli, who breathes life into a multitude of characters and packs the book with so many emotions. Not your typical true-crime tale.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 26
Mary Shelley wished with her classic Gothic novel Frankenstein to "make the reader dread to look round, to curdle the blood, and quicken the beatings of the heart". Mary Shelley succeeded. Victor Frankenstein finally fulfills his dream of creating his own living creature, stitched together from the macabre remains of corpses. To his horror he finds he has created something even more ghastly than in his worst imaginings. Frankenstein has created a monster with a soul!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, and have in fact recommended it.
What does Daniela Acitelli bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Daniela Acitelli brings a female perspective to a story that has been predominantly male-centric. She gives each character warmth and acts out the scenes, giving the reader a truly emotional experience.
Any additional comments?
Everyone is familiar with the story of Frankenstein. We've read the book, watched the films, but listening to the audio version of this classic gives the story another dimension. This was a joy to listen to.
