In these days of big marketing budgets and elaborate social media campaigns, it's delightful to discover an outstanding author through word of mouth, which is how I learned about author Kiersten Modglin. A fellow reader posted a glowing review of The Missing by Modglin on Bookstagram and I noted the author's name. When I saw The Arrangement available on Netgalley, I was excited to be approved for the audiobook.
The premise: Ainsley and Peter have been married for several years, both have demanding jobs, and they have three children. In a desperate attempt to save their floundering marriage, they agree to an arrangement where each will discretely 'date' another person once each week. What could go wrong?? Of course, nothing goes according to plan, and I was continually shocked by the twists and turns this plot takes, all the way to the very last sentence of this 240-page novel.
The audiobook is skillfully narrated by Sarah Mollo-Christenen and George Newbern as the voices of Ainsley and Peter. I first heard George Newbern when he narrated We Begin At The End and I strongly identify him with that fabulous novel, so it was an adjustment to hear him read this very different type of book.
I'll definitely be reading more of Ms. Modglin's novels. Thank you to Dreamscape Media and NetGalley for the ALC; all thoughts are my own.
