He jumped to his death in front of witnesses. Now his wife is charged with murder.
Five years ago, Erin Kennedy moved to New York following a family tragedy. She now lives happily with her detective husband in the scenic seaside town of Newport, Long Island. When Erin answers the door to Danny's police colleagues one morning, it's the start of an ordinary day. But behind her, Danny walks to the window of their fourth-floor apartment and jumps to his death.
Eighteen months later, Erin is in court, charged with her husband's murder. Over that year and a half, Erin has learned things about Danny she could never have imagined. She thought he was perfect. She thought their life was perfect.
But it was all built on the perfect lie.
Discover DI Tom Reynolds in the first instalment of Jo Spain's acclaimed detective series, With Our Blessing.

My only feedback is as follows:
(1) The tagline on the front cover of the book is truly misleading.
(2) I’ve gotten pretty frustrated lately with authors writing stories that take place in America and not having Americans review it for the nuances of American English prior to publication.
Here are some American nuances.
We don’t say “in hand”. We say on hand. For example, Gloria says “ he probably used whatever wrapping paper he had in hand”.
We don’t say “compensation prize“. We say “consolation prize“.
Last but not least, Americans don’t say “he should have done”. This is definitely British English. Americans would just say “he should have”.
A real page turner!
