Ruby Falls by Deborah Goodrich Royce
5.0

Oh wow! This book is so very Hitchcockian/Gothic in nature. It was such a page turner!

Little Ruby is left in an underground cave at Ruby Falls by her father, while they are on a guided tour. He's lost to the falls and assumed dead.

20 years later, Ruby (now Eleanor), is a new Hollywood actress and married in a whirlwind romance to Orlando. They find a house fast in Hollywood and start to settle down as a newlywed couple. But the Orlando of now isn't the guy she thought she married. He's mean and often cynical towards Eleanor.

This book takes everything that you think you know and twists it on its head! It's the kind of psychological thriller that I love. I love the unreliable. This book had it in spades. I was "mouth hung open and couldn't close it' after I finished. It feels like it would have made a great old time Hollywood classic film.
