Overall a fast paced story that held my attention and helped me finally read again after being sick, but not my favorite from Lapena.

This story was a bit more of a procedural drama than I expected, but it didn't make it and less of a thrill. Right up to the last page she's tying threads together and taking new directions. Her way of making sleepy suburbs and safe family communities and making them the scene of many crimes will have you looking over your shoulder. I find her style and characters irresistible. Each one has their own interests to look out for, and she doesn't settle for "good" and "bad" but rather a dynamic mix of prioritizing and self preservation where no one can trust anyone but themselves.

Patrick and Stephanie are happily married, and the new parents of twins. Foggy-brained and sleep-deprived from the babies' colic, their lives are turned inside out by the reappearance of a woman from Patrick's past.
Erica Voss knows Patrick has been married before and the circumstances by which that came to an end. And she's not keeping that information to herself.
The End Of Her drew me in right away, and held my attention with every page. There are a lot of roots sprouting out from the main storyline here and all tie together in the end.
There's plenty of unreliability and double-crossing in this one - domestic thriller fans, do check this out!
And it's obviously time I check out the remaining Lapena (did I mention she's Canadian?) book I haven't read of hers, An Unwanted Guest.
Recommended!
