This book is fantastic! The plot twists are epic. It’s the kind of book that sticks with you & I’ve been thinking about it since I finished it. Fern is incredibly clever & such a great character! This was my first Daniel Hurst book & it won’t be the last!

The Doctor's Wife was a page turner and a great thriller. I really enjoyed the 2 person POV throughout the story as well as the twists and turns. I had the story figured out before all the crazy started happening, but all in all a good read that kept my attention. I also enjoyed the epilogue that seems to be setting up for a continuation of the story.
I give this a 4 star rating. Thanks to Netgalley and the author for an advanced copy.

I think your average thriller reader will definitely enjoy this one.
I love a dual POV and this was no exception. Plus it featured a slow, layered reveal as well, which I'm always a sucker for, and this one keeps serving them up right to the end.
Without giving too much away, if you are into domestic thrillers, that centers on a lying partner that gets their comeuppance...well this one is for you.
The audiobook has two narrators for the dual POV, which I always appreciate as a listener.

I enjoyed this book so much! Even though it had a predictable plot, that did not inhibit any enjoyment. This is a nail biter all the way. I also liked the very clever ending

Woahhhhh! 4.5 stars!! Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review. This one is blurbed as being one for fans of Behind Closed Doors which is one of my favorites that really had me questioning everything, and I can definitely see why!
The amazing part of this book is that you learn pretty quickly on that innocent little Fern is anything but that and actually knows what’s going on right under her nose. This one was pretty quickly moving and then at about 3/4 in we get another bomb drop which honestly, I didn’t see coming. I thought this one was going to flip the switch and see the demise of Fern’s plan, but it seemingly feels like she has everything wrapped up. I’d love to see a continuation with these characters, as once I got going, I didn’t want to stop!
Again, thank you so much to the publishers and NetGalley for this ARC - pub day is 1/31/23, so you can pick this one up in a week or so, it’s definitely a good one!
