9 posts | 9 read | 10 to read
A gripping new psychological thriller, for fans of The Girl on the Train, The Girl Before and The Wife Between Us. Claire Westcott tries to be the perfect wife to Byron but fears she will never measure up to his ex, Colleen. After all, it's hard to compete with the dead. Colleen went missing eight years ago. Her body was never found but the police ruled it a suicide. So when Claire receives a phone call from a woman she believes is Colleen, it opens up a million terrifying questions. Claire discovers the couple weren't as happy as they would have people believe. And now she's worried Byron hasn't been completely honest with her. There are secrets in every marriage, but Claire is about to find out that sometimes those secrets are deadly.

This book was fabulous! If you‘re a domestic suspense fan, it is superb! If you haven‘t read her, I think this is the one to start with!

Mehso-so

The difference between 3 and 4 stars was due to a gaping plot hole. Why didn't Claire investigate Byron before marrying him? A simple search would have uncovered that he was a suspect in his wife's death—the husband is always a suspect. Are we to credit this to her naiveté because she's young?

Although the ending comes to a screeching halt, it is incredibly explosive and makes suffering with yet another unreliable female lead worth it.
