A fast-paced thriller with a very straightforward storyline.

Woman meets man, they fall in love, woman and man got married, the man is actually not the same person as when they were still dating, man is abusive, the woman’s sister is living with them soon, the sister apparently doesn’t like the man and ask woman to kill him, woman made up her mind to kill man, man is found dead and nobody really knows how (except the woman)

There you have it, the whole storyline. It’s predictable I suppose, especially towards the ending, but the ending is something that we readers do expect from a torturing (literally) book like this, am I right? 

I don’t feel anything for this book

(other than tortured from Jack’s treatment to Grace),

and I really want this to end so fast—fortunately it’s very fast-paced. I believe I’d even forget that I’ve read this book in 72 hours.
