My Policeman by Bethan Roberts
4.0
I think I would have liked this even more if I had physically read it rather than listened via audiobook.
This was a heartbreaking "period" piece. I found a lot of Marion's dissections of the 1950's quite interesting and her mental acrobatics of her husbands' indiscretions surprisingly forgiving and understanding. I felt sympathy for all characters, except Tom, and I'm unsure if that was the point. Nonetheless, this was a well-written story and the characters kept me curious what had happened. The ending was quite beautiful.
75/100
