Suspicious of your mate? Read this book, November 5,
2006
Reviewer: Cindy G - Book freak "Cindy G"
This is a terrific quick read for any woman who thinks her
mate might be straying or has strayed. It's very funny and
very thought provoking.
It does not tell you how to get revenge. After you read the
book, you won't want to anyway but you will gain something
more valuable - clarity.
Some of her ideas on how to catch your cheating mate are
downright hysterical. My favorite part though (and the part I
wish I'd done when I finally confronted my cheating mate)
was to always have a reason ready when asked "what are you
doing looking at my xxxx credit card bill?". I also loved her
explanation of how to watch for and how to handle the "Jedhi
Mind Games". This ability comes in handy in all types of
situations - not just in confronting a cheating spouse.
Enjoy this book!

Reviewer: Donna Garrison "wise woman" (Toronto, ON)
If you want to uncover infidelity, this book will help you do
that. It's a funny read, that will give you all of the information
you need to catch them in the act. Once you've caught them,
then it's up to you whether you want to work it out or not...

ULTIMATE BETRAYAL: RECOGNIZING, UNCOVERING
AND DEALING WITH DECEPTIONS by Danine Manette is
a step-by-step, how-to, investigative guide for catching a
cheating spouse or significant other. Written by a woman,
either men or women can use this small but informative guide.
Manette, a criminal investigator by trade with a Ph.D. in law
and a personal experience from having been cheated on, goes
into great detail by laying out a foundation on how to begin an
investigative journey that culminates in self-reflection. Manette
writes with humor but pulls no punches when it comes to the
tactics she highly recommends. The contents of the book are
Recognizing Signs, Gathering Evidence, Confrontation,
Disclosure and What Now. Each content area provides a
framework of how to discover, if there is anything to
discover, half-truths and lies. At the end of the journey
Manette brings it all home with the chapter on Self-Reflection.
If you have to go to these lengths, what does that say about
you?
ULTIMATE BETRAYAL: RECOGNIZING, UNCOVERING
AND DEALING WITH DECEPTIONS will have your mouth
agape, your mind spinning and may have you laughing out
loud at some of the tactics used to uncover the hidden truth.

Watch out cheaters!! August 8, 2003
Reviewer: Stacey W. Mattison from Atlanta, GA
This is a great book for people who suspect their mate of
cheating. It's a must read for men and women - It's
humorous and full of excellent tips! There is also quite a bit
information to make you think about your current relationship
and how healthy or unhealthy it is. It's an excellent read - you
won't be able to put the book down!
A great and quick read! July 16, 2003
Reviewer: George Arroyo from California, United States
Danine Manette manages to write a "how to" that offers real
world advice in a concise and entertaining manner. In this
book, Danine is painfully honest about her personal emotions
while offering the reader a straight forward, easy to follow
approach to discovery and confirmation of a cheating partner.
At such a bargain price, I picked up the book out of male
curiosity. Despite the fact it's a "how to book", I found
myself reading this short book in just one sitting because THE
ULTIMATE BETRAYAL has a good deal of suspense to it. I
imagined someone going through all the steps Danine suggests
which creates a sense of suspense as one reads quickly
through the book. Will you be caught spying on your mate!
Will your mate catch on to you!
Overall, I recommend this book. It really does give some
practical advise to catch your cheating mate..And for those
who are cheating on your spouse, this book is probably a
must read if you want a half decent chance to cover your
tracks!

I just finished soaking in the tub reading your book cover to
cover! I only wish I'd been able to read it seven years ago
(not that I would have listened to anyone's advice back
then...) This book is awesome. Many practical tips on
gathering evidence and maintaining your composure. I made
so many mistakes when collecting evidence. The worst was
that I constantly tipped my hand in anger. And yeah, I always
divulged my sources to him, out of a sense of honesty and
"legality." Now I see how that hampered me... my H is a govt.
investigator who is good at what he does. So I have been
dealing with the master of Jedeye Mind Tricks. I have pretty
much given up the search and am concentrating on getting me
healed... It is a great book! It is absolutely the kind of
practical book I wish I'd had years ago. The nitty gritty details
really help me, a lot more than psychological fluff.
Anyway, folks: The book is warm, matter-of-fact, and filled
with great details on how to snoop. The descriptions of
cheaters' common responses are dead-on. Most importantly,
the final chapter asks the reader to ask herself to do some
soul-searching. You have helped me to see that I do deserve
better. Thank you dmanette for sharing your knowledge and
experience in this book! You deserve the kudoes!!!

The author gives a very insightful view into the mind of
cheating mates. She also knows how to identify with feelings
that everyone has probably had in one relationship or another.
This book encourages readers to examine not only their mate
but themselves.

WORTH EVERY PENNY AND THEN SOME!!!
How ANYONE could think otherwise, is beyond ME!!! I am
not, a professional book reviewer, so I speak only from my
heart... I am a betrayed spouse. When I first suspected, that
my husband was seeing another woman, my first thought was
to run to the book store, and pull every book off the shelves
that dealt with infidelity and so I did... Had quite a stack of
them, next to my chair, and I spent weeks looking thru them
ALL and found that Danine Manette's book, "Ultimate Betrayal"
was and is, the only book, that truly "got ME" and "helped
Me"... In fact, she probably saved my life. Dealing with
infidelity is a "roller coaster ride" at best and when one first
finds out, the cheating spouse will most likely lie, lie, lie, and -
you - the betrayed spouse, will believe them, for a while...
making yourself feel like you are going crazy. Not a good place
to be... Ms Manette's book gave me hope, courage, guidance,
humor, and it's all condensed into one - easy read - treasure
cove - of excellent information! IF you suspect that your
spouse is having an affair, this book is for you. Do not
purchase another one, until you have read this one, PLEASE!!!
Simply - the BEST - BETTER - than all the rest!!!!! Once you
start reading it you will not be able to put it down, it's that
good...

Reviewer: A reader from San Mateo, California USA
I was hesitant to read this book, but found I just couldn't put it
down after I started reading it. The author explains situations
and gives readers a step-by-step plan for finding out if their
mate is cheating. In doing so, she had me laughing the whole
time with her experiences and suggestions for how to catch the
cheater at his game. I was pleasantly surprised at how the
author sums up her experience in her journey and makes good
points about why we even put up with lying/cheating mates in
the first place. Now that I've read the book, I definitely
recommend it.

This book is appealing on several levels. Not only a practical

way, they work!), the book is also an entertaining read. The

relationships which was definitely helpful to me!

Ultimate Betrayal is an excellent journey into the world of mate-
to-mate deception. Danine Manette provides riveting details on
recognizing and coming to terms with deceptive behavior from
an intimate party. I highly recommend this book and it's a must
read for anyone dealing with deception from any 3rd party
source, whether it be an intimate partner, friend, co-worker,
etc. Pick up the book today!

Reviewer: A reader from California
This book is for every person who has ever felt betrayed. My
guess is that everyone has at some point in their life. The author
does a wonderful job of validating our feelings of hurt and
confusion. It is nice to know that someone understands our
need to uncover betrayal. But be careful, because by the end of
the book, the person you may uncover the most about is
yourself.

What a journey!! This was good - having experienced what you
have experienced and then reading about it is powerful. You
have put into words every thought, fear, angry outburst, stupid
act, etc.
I'm glad this book was not just about how to tell if "he" is
cheating, but really more about the self-destruction of ourselves
in searching for the "cheater".
Some of it is funny-having lived thru it, survived and all, I can
laugh; but, boy, were those some painful moments-you
articulated them nicely - I "felt" you.
Reviewed by Crystal Thomas 2/23/2001
This book is OUTSTANDING. The author gives excellent
techniques about catching a mate that may be cheating. The
book also encourages self-analysis and evaluation of what one
may be doing to "enable" the cheater. This book offers valuable
lessons that are delivered with a sense of humor.

Fantastic job!!!
You are absolutely, right on the money in all that you
share/explain. I'm 33, divorced, and RN......and though you'd
think I had a couple brains in my head (LOL), looking back, it's
clear that I've more often than not, ended up with men who
cheated. Even my ex husband. All of these past experiences
have helped now, to fine tune my intuition....though sometimes
I find myself maybe being a little too
suspicious/skeptical/cynical? My friends and family have
always called me "Sherlock" haha....because I can (through too
much past experience) spot a cheater or potential cheater a mile
away....and like yourself, I must have PROOF! There are a lot
of women out there who live in denial......I can't imagine living
that way. Life is too short. A woman's mental health,
happiness, peace of mind are worth a heckuva lot more than
that! Well, just wanted to let you know that all I read made
perfect sense, very easy to understand, very well laid out, very
'common sense.' Bravo!
