Two Dead Wives by Adele Parks
4.0
3.5 rounded up.
A twisty domestic drama that is both thriller, police procedural and revenge story. Told from multiple POVs, the story starts with a husband learning his wife had a whole other family and might have been locked up against her will. Now she's missing and DCI Clements has to determine which husband (if either) killed her, or if she left on her own and staged her death. I really enjoyed how different this story was (being mainly from the two men's perspectives). While this is related to Woman last seen, I didn't even realize it until I read the author's note at the end so it definitely works as a standalone too and was good on audio. Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an early digital copy in exchange for my honest review!
