My review:

Lauren’s sister, Ellie, has been missing for years. So has her husband, Alex’s, brother, Clive. When Ellie’s body has been found there is a picture in her pocket of her, Clive and Alex. Does Alex know more about Ellie’s disappearance than he’s lead Lauren to believe? Does she?

I did enjoy this one, but after all the build up to what really happened to Ellie I was a bit let down with the outcome. It was both super fast paced and draggy at times. I wouldn’t really consider it a thriller, more of a domestic mystery, since the disappearances happened so long ago. I liked the ending, but I don’t think it will be for everyone.

Narration notes:
Stephanie did a really good job.

Book blurb:

My sister is dead. Did I marry her killer?

The moment I first gazed into Alex’s soulful gray eyes, I knew I’d met the man I wanted to spend my life with. And I was right. When my beloved sister vanished, Alex put up posters and wiped away my tears after bad dreamā€”she put me back together. But when police pull a crumpled photo from my dead sister’s pocket, and I see my husband’s familiar face smiling back at me, my perfect world shatters.

Smoothing out the faded picture, I get shivers down my spine. I pray it’s a mistake, because I thought they’d never met. Was I wrong to trust the man I married?

The color drains from Alex’s face when I hand the photograph to him, and his explanation just doesn’t add up. I wonder if my sister called him out on his lies. Did she push Alex too far? Or did he push her?

As I look at the man I promised to love forever, I realize he must not know that I don’t trust him. If he killed my sister, am I next?

But I won’t let him hurt me. My husband has no idea what I’m capable of, and how far I’ll go to keep myself alive.

If The HousemaidThe Wife Between Us or The Woman in the Window had you totally gripped until late at night, then you’ll love this psychological thriller from Amazon charts bestseller Georgina Cross.
