A mind-bending, psychological thriller from the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Housemaid.
Lesson #1: trust no one
Eve has a good life. She gets up each day, gets a kiss from her husband Nate, and heads off to teach math at the local high school. All is as it should be. Except…
Last year, Caseham High was rocked by a scandal involving a student-teacher affair, with one student, Addie, at its center. But Eve knows there is far more to these ugly rumors than meets the eye.
Addie can't be trusted. She lies. She hurts people. She destroys lives. At least, that's what everyone says.
But nobody knows the real Addie. Nobody knows the secrets that could destroy her. And Addie will do anything to keep it quiet.
From the New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden comes a story of twisting secrets and long-awaited revenge.
"The superb latest from McFadden...frequent rug-pulling will thrill readers who've initially pinned the story as run-of-the-mill domestic suspense. [The Teacher] rivets." ―Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Secrets are everywhere in this sparkling narrative that moves like a Japanese bullet train, offering plenty of surprises along the way." ―First Clue
Rated of 5

Cat-and-Mouse Thriller
Narrated by Leslie Howard and Danny Montooth
Narration was well done, but the teachers voice was a bit cringeworthy at times.
A cat-and-mouse psychological thriller that pulls you in with the Prologue.
This tale is told from the alternating viewpoints of Eve (a teacher and wife of Nate, who is also a teacher) and Addie (student of both Eve and Nate.) Parts are so outrageous, but overall an entertaining and enjoyable read.
Mix of a crumbling marriage, affairs, questionable activities of a teacher, revenge, murder, secrets, lies and a ‘Hot Potato’ sixteen year old girl and you get—The Teacher, by Freida McFadden.

Freida's work has been selected as one of Amazon Editors' best books of the year, she is a winner of the International Thriller Writers Award for best paperback, and she is a Goodreads Choice Award winner.
