About the book
The police are coming, they’re going to arrest me.’ My blood runs cold at his words. My husband is accused of murder. He swears he is innocent – so why won’t he tell me where he really was that night?
I feel so lucky to have my handsome husband Mark and our blue-eyed little boy. Everyone says we’re the perfect family. I used to believe them.
But everything changes when Mark comes home from a work trip with dark circles under his eyes. That night I jump at a hammering at the door. The police want to question him about the murder of a beautiful, blonde young woman. Mark swears he had nothing to do with it, that she was a colleague, nothing more.
Mark is a respected airline pilot, and the model husband and father. It seems impossible that he would be involved in something like this. But he won’t say a word about where he really was. I believe that he’s not a killer – but I know he’s hiding something. It wouldn’t be the first time.
Then my husband is attacked. I sit by his hospital bed praying for him to wake up, tears streaming down my face. The police say it’s an accident. But what if someone has done this to him?
I go rigid with fear when I see someone hidden in the garden, watching the house. Are they coming to hurt us too? I’ll do anything to protect my precious little boy – and I have to start by uncovering my husband’s lies...
An unbelievably tense and twisty psychological thriller that will leave you breathless for more! Perfect for fans of Kathryn Croft, T.M. Logan and Ruth Heald.
My Review
Wow! What a fantastic read! From that very first chapter I was hooked. I couldn’t wait to find out what had happened. I really believed I had it all figured out but then there was big twists and turns. It really does keep you guessing until the end.
The characters where brilliant, I really felt for the wife. I found myself thinking oh my god what would I do if I was in her shoes. I was honestly frightened for her and felt so sorry for her. I desperately wanted it all to be ok for her. But I could just imagine all the suspicions she had going round and round her head. They where even going round my head as I tried to guess what had happened.
This author sure knows how to write a spectacular psychological thriller and I will first in the queue to read their next books!
