THE BREAK-OUT NO.1 KINDLE BESTSELLER!

Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty, Shari Lapena and Lisa Jewell

The perfect couple … or the perfect lie?

A devoted wife…
A year ago, Gemma met the love of her life, Danny. Since then, their relationship has been perfect. But one evening, Danny doesn’t return home.

A missing husband…
Gemma turns to the police. She is horrified by what she discovers – a serial killer is on the loose in Bristol. When she sees photos of the victims she is even more stunned…they all look just like Danny.

Who would you believe?
But the police are suspicious. Why has no one apart from Gemma heard from Danny in weeks? Why is there barely a trace of him in their flat? Is she telling them the truth, or is this marriage hiding some very dark secrets?

Excellent

Would have given this a 5 except the police and detective writing was so bad. The author didn’t do much research on how to write insights into how police work it sounded like juvenile writing. The fact that the detectives jumped to conclusions without any evidence was just ridiculous.

Pretty Good but not great

Just ok. Wasn’t that suspenseful to me. Wasn’t worth my credit. Didn’t have me on the edge of my seat. It was just ok.

It was ok

I think this was generally a good storyline, gave it middle of the road markings for everything though. I believe it would have been more suspenseful if it wasn’t so slow. During the last two hours, I kept fast forwarding to get to another point of the story… It was a little bit dragged out which causes me to lose interest.

Enjoyed but needed to fast forward

The premise of the story excellent, parts of the story very well developed, my disappointment comes with how little digging the detectives did to solve the crime, how easy they pointed a finger at the one who was only trying to help, the one who should have been the detective.
Narration was very well done, by Elaine and Hattie.

Didn’t add up

Very much enjoyed listening to this book. Narrator was perfect too. I enjoyed that till the end I didn't know how the mysteries would turn out. Also nice that our heroine may have missed some things, but she didn't seem like a completely clueless female, as is the case in so many of my favorite domestic drama books

Loved this book!
