I think the start of this book made up for a lot of the minuses (not that there were a lot of them).
Erin is happily married with Danny who is a cop. One morning, his partner comes at their place, a very normal and usual thing, and looks at Danny and says he is sorry. Danny, turns around and jumps off the window. Quite, quite shocking!
Jo Spain is a great writer. She has a magic ability to draw you into the story fast and deep. I was absolutely hooked from the first pages and I eagerly wanted to know what happened, why did he jump.
A great book, very enjoyable! Liked it a lot!

Book Review time!
The Perfect Lie by Jo Spain.
Swipe⬅️ for Synopsis.
*My Thoughts*
I wish I liked this one more!
The plot is so captivating and I just wish the book had been the same.
For me, the book was a bit too long. Too much time where little happened.
I did find myself becoming really wrapped up in the story and then the alternating chapter would happen and I was lifted from the story.
Although, on a positive note, Jo Spain has a unique ability to craft excellent crime storylines.
I felt the settings in the book were well developed and described.
I also liked how the plot had multiple contributing factors to it.
While Spain may be a hit & miss author for me, this book has excellent reviews & I would still encourage anyone else to read it.
Three stars!
