The Drowning Woman

adult audiobook book contemporary fantasy fiction mystery psychological thriller thriller
"The Drowning Woman" by Robyn Harding. This is a decent thriller with some surprising turns. It's about a woman who's homeless, living in her car, and how she ends up rescuing a rich housewife from drowning. This incident throws both of their lives into chaos. The woman, Lee Gulliver, used to run a restaurant in New York City, but when the pandemic came, her business and her life fell apart.

Lee Gulliver never expected to end up living on the streets, but when her restaurant failed, and she got deep into debt, she had to leave her old life behind with just her clothes and her Toyota Corolla. She found a quiet place by the beach in Seattle to hide and figure out her next steps.

One morning, she witnessed a woman named Hazel in distress, trying to drown herself. Lee saved her, but Hazel was angry instead of thankful. Hazel confided that she wanted to escape an abusive marriage, but Lee had thwarted her plan.

Hazel returned the next day, and despite their different situations, they formed an unexpected friendship. Then, Hazel made a surprising request: she wanted Lee to help her vanish. Hazel assured her it would be easy, but Lee soon realized things were more complicated, and Hazel might not be the friend she appeared to be.
