A Psychological Thriller with a Twist

Faith Finley is a psychologist and a best selling author. Her books on how to deal with an abusive spouse have catapulted her to fame. She’s also married to Liam, a food critic. Their’s is a happy marriage until on the night of a release of one of her books, he disappears.


She’s been receiving receiving accusations and is upset that Liam is not instantly supportive, but she gives him space and on the night of her book release things seem much better. That’s why it’s such a shock when he disappears.


The police go through the motions of investigating, but Faith knows they don’t believe her. She tries to deal with her demons with alcohol and pills, but threats keep coming, and she’s not sure who to trust. She particularly wants to avoid her neighbor, Hilly Lancaster who has an unexpected tie to Liam. When the police don’t believe her and threatening notes continue, Faith has to try to find the answer to the mystery.


This mystery is full of twists. I didn’t see the end coming until it was almost on me. I didn't’ care for Fiaith’s character. She had reasons to distrust events, but her use of alcohol and pills to solve her problems seemed a poor choice.


The story is well written, and it will definitely keep you guessing.


I received this book from Harlequin for this review.
