The number one international best-selling author of Pretty Little Wife returns with another thrilling domestic suspense novel that asks, how many wives and girlfriends need to disappear before your family notices?

Elisa Wright is a mom and wife, living a nice, quiet life in a nice, quiet town. She’s also convinced her brother-in-law is a murderer. Josh has one dead wife and one missing fiancée, and though he grieved for them he starts dating someone new. Elisa fears for that woman’s safety, and she desperately wants to know what happened to her friend, Josh’s missing fiancée.

Searching for clues means investigating her own family. And she doesn’t like what she finds. A laptop filled with incriminating information. Other women.

But when Elisa becomes friends with Josh’s new girlfriend and starts to question things she thinks are true, Elisa wonders if the memories of a horrible incident a year ago have finally pushed her over the edge and Josh is really innocent. With so much at stake, Elisa fights off panic attacks and a strange illness. Is it a breakdown or something more? The race is on to get to the truth before another disappearance because there’s a killer in the family…or is there?

I lived the performance; the story had great twists and turns and kept me listening and wanting more. I usually listen to my audible books in the car. I couldn’t wait to have to go somewhere in order to hear more of the story! Highly recommend!

Another great psychological thriller!

Very interesting, fast paced, nice little who done it. Narration was great. Maybe not so believable but neither are lifetime movies!

nice

I think the overall idea had so much potential, poor execution of character development and story line development. Huge gaping holes in the plot and lacked a finish that was well put together. It went on and some of the details were actually useless to the story line.

If you’re into lifetime type of drama, you’ll enjoy this book. A lot of fluffy words. Predictable for the most part. I said, “ Girl, come ooon!!?”, quite a few times as a result of my frustration of the main character at times. However, I did enjoy it enough to finish.

Lifetime movie of a book

Lacked a lot of the thrilling twists that Pretty Little Wife had. The ending was predictable .

Not as thrilling as other of this authors books

Ton of potential. Saturated with over explanation on minor detail like the reader didn't understand, but left more important parts without much context. Too much focus on the main characters child. alot of hypocritical thinking/conflicting thought from the main character, one minute her husband is a kind gentle and go with the flow kind of guy and the next, he is the reason the child has anger issues. overall the book could have been much better

missed the mark

The ending it was ruined it. Decent but last 2 hours was so predictable I stopped listening half way through that

Rate it a C+ maybe B-
