Lying Next to Me by Gregg Olsen

4.0

A crime fiction I like. Pacing is perfect. I am now following Gregg Olsen's work and will continue to read more from him.

Synopsis: A man goes out to sea and witnesses the attack and abduction of his wife. He rows to the shore but it's too late. Detectives think he's involved (as most husbands are in this type of crime) but there was a witness who saw the wife get taken, and the husband clearly out at sea. But also, the man's account of what happened had inconsistencies. But one of the detectives knew him from childhood and can't believe he would do something such as do something bad to his wife.

SpoilerTurns out the wife had an affair with a married dude, and said dude's wife wanted revenge.
