Dear Wife
by Kimberly Belle
I flew through listening to this one on Audible. It's difficult not to. The narration was good and well-paced so that the chapters galloped one after another. I did want to know the backstory, and the moment I made the connection between the characters, it hinged on a tiny detail. And of course, I just had to find out how it would all end with the almighty confrontation between the hunter and the hunted.
I found a lot of parallels to Sleeping with the Enemy and to a good many domestic thriller books which seem to be clawing into the book market lately. The ones that just have that narrative twist to make the reader go "ah-ha!" all at once. This book was sneakier, I thought, than The Silent Patient, which I had suspected sooner. I figured that some things weren't adding up from the start in Dear Wife, considering that certain narrative voices wouldn't be in there IF the characters/narrators of each chapter weren't somehow more closely related. I'll let you sort out the details and clues for yourself as you read. Just pay close attention. Not everything is as it seems - even die has several face, after all.
