For seven years I believed my husband was dead - until the note arrived this morning... The day her husband Tom disappeared, Rachel's life fell apart. Childhood sweethearts with two young children, they'd done everything together. And then, suddenly, Tom was gone. Without a word, without a note, without a single sign of where he might be, leaving Rachel to survive alone. Now, nearly seven years later, Rachel has come to terms with life as a single mother, caring for their children who still secretly long for their father's miraculous return. But in his absence, Tom's hidden life started to emerge, and Rachel has discovered things a wife should never have to. A secret life that betrayed everything Rachel thought she knew. Not knowing where he'd gone was no longer the main worry keeping her awake at night - it seemed much more likely he'd been silenced. Forever..Until today, when - with just one month until Tom is to be declared legally dead - Rachel receives a note in handwriting she recognises with dread: My darling, I've missed you so much. Give me a chance to explain. I'm coming home. The husband she'd lost is alive. And so are all his secrets... A totally addictive and suspenseful thriller that will have you reading late into the night, perfect for fans of Shari Lapena, T.M. Logan and Lisa Jewell. Readers love Lesley Sanderson: 'O.M.G!!...

Fascinating love triangle! When Tom leaves his wife, Rachel for younger woman Heidi, things get dicey. Seven years later he‘s missing and no one seems to know anything. Alternating between past and present, the novel details the events leading up to the betrayal and the lengths to which people will go to maintain a facade, deceive others, and keep the truth from emerging!

Almost seven years ago Rachel‘s husband disappeared without a trace. She is prepared to declare him legally dead when she receives a note from him. I liked the premise, but the execution was poor. The characters were one dimensional and the writing felt stilted and amateurish. Thanks to NetGalley and @Bookouture for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
