About this audiobook

Rock Paper Scissors is the latest exciting domestic thriller from the queen of the killer twist, New York Times bestselling author Alice Feeney.

Think you know the person you married? Think again...

Things have been wrong with Mr and Mrs Wright for a long time. When Adam and Amelia win a weekend away to Scotland, it might be just what their marriage needs. Self-confessed workaholic and screenwriter Adam Wright has lived with face blindness his whole life. He can’t recognize friends or family, or even his own wife.

Every anniversary the couple exchange traditional gifts--paper, cotton, pottery, tin--and each year Adam’s wife writes him a letter that she never lets him read. Until now. They both know this weekend will make or break their marriage, but they didn’t randomly win this trip. One of them is lying, and someone doesn’t want them to live happily ever after.

Ten years of marriage. Ten years of secrets. And an anniversary they will never forget.

A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books

Ratings and reviews

I found myself anxious for the book to just be over with... get on with it. tell us the clever twist that's being foreshadowed on every page practically. I still taste this a 3 because I think most thriller/ mystery readers will enjoy it and don't want to discourage your experience. But for me it didn't thrill, just...ehh.

Played out as more as a domestic drama than a mystery. The man was boring and the women were desperate. Only decided to finish it because I paid so much for it. Thought it would never end. Very disappointing, figured it out very quickly and the actual ending was silly.

Turns & twists so often it'll have you on the edge of your seat!! Loooooved it!!
