Holy plot twists, Batman! Good mysteries and thrillers keep you guessing, and that's exactly what Alice Feeney did with His & Hers.

As the name suggests, we get the both the POV of two people who used to be married: "his" and "hers." He is Jack--a detective who used to live in London but is now working the cases of the small country town he grew up in. She is Anna--a newscaster living in London who was assigned to cover a murder in the small town where her ex-husband is living. Jack and Anna discover that the victim was a woman they went to school with, and they both have a heavy history with her. Over the next few days, more people are murdered, and no one knows who they can trust.

Every time I thought I had something figured out, I was nowhere near the truth. This is decidedly one of my favorite Alice Feeney books to date and one that I'd recommend to all mystery and thriller lovers.

This was a great twisty domestic style thriller!

My second read from this author and my favourite so far. The book started slightly slow for me, but once we got 70/80 pages in I was intrigued to see what was going on.

The story continues at a fast pace and truly has you guessing who to blame for the crimes. What I was not expecting was the actual reveal!

The author did a great job of directing the blame to a certain character, then revealing we were totally looking at the wrong person at the very end. It was smartly weaved into the reveal and truly unexpected.

More graphic than expected, and too much focus on some of things mentioned in the content warnings. This book is trigger warning central, it's a lot. Surprised me here and there, but not her best.
