The Second Husband
The Second Husband: A Novel | Kate White
A woman's seemingly perfect second marriage is rocked by a discovery about the death of her first husband in this twisty psychological thriller from Kate White, the New York Times bestselling author whom Entertainment Weekly called "impossible to outwit." Recovering from the unsolved murder of her first husband, Derrick, thirtysomething Emma Hawke has built a new life with Tom, a handsome, successful, and loving widower who finally makes her feel safe again. Then one day a police detective shows up at their house on the Connecticut shore, asking questions about Derrick's death. Emma was sure she'd been cleared in the days after the tragedy. So why is law enforcement taking another look now--and questioning the timing of her relationship with Tom? She hadn't even met him until after Derrick's death. Then Emma is shocked to discover that, in fact, she and her second husband attended the same business dinner two months before Derrick's murder. Did Tom, unbeknownst to Emma, spot her there? Could he have set his sights on her and orchestrated a plan to make her his wife, whatever the cost. With twists and turns all the way to the last page, this fast-paced, expertly plotted novel will have you asking that age-old question: how well do you really know the ones you love?

Mehso-so

My opinion of this book is that it was ok. It was your typical “Who Done It”. I can‘t remember why I decided to read this book, but I‘m sure it was recommended by someone who liked murder mysteries. So as not to take away from the author, I have to admit that
Murder mysteries aren‘t my thing. I couldn‘t relate to any of the characters, and I felt the ending fell short.

What could have caused the police to re-open the cold murder case of Emma's husband? She was cleared as a suspect back then.

FULL REVIEW 6/27.

What could have caused the police to re-open the cold murder case of Emma's husband?

She was cleared as a suspect back then.

Ms. White keeps you guessing and wondering who the murderer is in this marvelous, twisty, hard-to-put-down gem.

I do think my ARC copy had pages missing at the end, though, and the ending sentences were repeated from previous scenes.

Even so, I really enjoyed this book. 5/5
