‘Thank you for agreeing to be our wedding planner. Theo is on his way,’ Madison says as we meet to plan her dream wedding. The moment her fiancé enters the room, a newborn baby in his arms, my whole world shifts and I grab hold of my desk to stop myself from falling.
Theo shakes my hand as he introduces himself, but I already know who he is. He’s my husband. The man I thought had died five years ago.
‘Lovely to meet you, Eva,’ he says, carefully avoiding my frozen stare. I’d recognise his smooth voice anywhere.
I want to scream, ask him why he’s doing this to me. But I know just how good a liar my husband is. And he knows my darkest secret. I can’t risk him destroying everything I’ve worked so hard for.
At the end of the meeting, I watch the happy little family walk away, and I don’t miss Theo’s eyes staring at me just a second too long. He knows I’m onto him. But only I know what I’m going to do next…
Readers who loved The Housemaid, The Perfect Marriage and Gone Girl will love the jaw-dropping twist in this absolutely gripping psychological thriller.
Eva, Madison and Nicole’s live have definitely intertwined, and things are about to take a dark turn. Eva’s mental health is definitely a concern, but she is absolutely certain that Theo is her “dead” husband Hugo. Madison and Nicole must somehow connect to the unfolding events, but readers are left to ponder the puzzle, trying to figure out the truth. It’s like assembling a jigsaw puzzle where you’re certain you have all the pieces, but the task seems impossible. This thriller evokes the same sense of unease and intrigue.
Having read over a dozen of Carla Kovach’s books, I was confident that this would be another excellent read. Of course, I wasn’t disappointed, especially considering the story’s excellent pacing. It’s always intriguing to read a story with an unreliable narrator, and this book features three of them. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. The ending was excellent, just as this fabulous book was.
As well as novels, she has also written stage and screenplays.
