The Serial Killer's Wife by Alice Hunter
5.0

THE first thriller in ages that I’ve read cover to cover and rated 5 stars. This book really kept me on edge. Who do you trust?! I was certainly second guessing the characters. But there’s always one that misses the gun in that scenario which leaves you gasping for air. Why didn’t I see that coming?! Even with glasses, I’m blind as a bat…

Initially, this book starts out with the perfect family, the perfect home etc… but when the police come knocking the drama unfolds and so does the uncertainty. I think Beth is such a strong protagonist that she just makes the book all the more exciting… I’m not sure that’s the right wording but we’ll go with it. She knows what she wants & will stop at nothing until she gets it.

I can only describe this book as Desperate Housewives meets Big Little Lies.

You like gossip, friendships, obsessions, drama, feeling on edge & a fast-paced page turner? This is the book for you.
