About this deal

So many layers to this story that with each passing chapter I felt like a kid at Christmas hastily unwrapping to learn more details.

This is the third psychological thriller I've read by this exciting duo in the form of "Amanda Rigby". I was confused as to what was going on for about the first 30% of the book, but by 40% the book was just mind-blowing twist layered upon lies layered upon story developments. From 2001 she has lived with her family in New Zealand, which she considers to be the most beautiful place in the world. Then she exercises at the gym to relieve the stress from work, and pursues "love, money, fun and trouble. Things are complicated and the story weaves between the past and present with really unexpected and surprising twists along the way and the biggest and most surprising twist at the very end.With nothing in her own name, no money, no assets, Natasha is now sitting on that same uncomfortable curb as ol' Jen.

Alice certainly wasn't close enough to hear their conversation but she could see enough to know that it was heated. gives us an idea of what it would be like to walk into [a] museum and or gallery and see a portrait of how we might have looked [then]: all of us dressed in stylish flapper clothes, swilling bootleg gin, chattering and flirting. She thinks of the baby she did have, whom Peter likewise did not want, and who died at three months old, in the care of his grandparents, in Boston, while Patricia was on a trip. But before you can blink an eye, Nick has disappeared from their home taking their daughter Emily with him. Caught between Victorian sexual mores and the libertinism of interwar Greenwich Village, Patricia brings a gimlet eye to the pervasive misogyny and sexual hypocrisies of her generation.In 1952, the year she told Walter Winchell that she was sleeping in subways, Parrott was charged with grand larceny for stealing silverware from the house of friends in Westchester. This remotion infects “Ex-Wife”; I would put the book down for a short spell and, picking it up again, realize that my memory had reclassified Patricia’s first-person narration as a close third. I won't go into more details as I don't want to risk giving anything away but Amanda and Sally really have done an amazing job constructing an addictive and explosive psychological thriller with fantastic and varied characters that you just won't be able to put down! However, Jack spots her driving to the airport and attempts to run her off the road, resulting in a horrific car crash where Emily is believed to have been killed in the explosion.

Yes, he was supposedly good looking and made good money, but that’s never enough to be treated like shit. The author drops hints here and there at what might be going on; clever suspense readers may figure out what's happening mid-way through the book, but that certainly won't spoil this tantalizing thriller for even the most seasoned mystery readers. Instead, she tackles the role of Tasha, who on paper appears to have the perfect life – she’s happily married to an older man, Jack (Tom Mison), with whom she has a young daughter, Emily. The series follows a young woman, Tasha ( Céline Buckens) who is married to middle-aged Jack ( Tom Mison). And so what ensues is one bad decision after another which ultimately leads to Alice sitting in a prison cell awaiting trial for murder.Natasha is a barista struggling to make ends meet, when she is struck by a car with a handsome businessman driving it while biking to work. Alice Hargraves is facing the charges of murdering her ex-husband’s fiancée Norah – Alice’s life was all perfect until Norah enters her life unexpectedly and that is when Alice’s husband Mark realizes he has been leading a mundane life with a wife who has no new aspirations. A recently divorced wife is accused of murdering her young, pretty and seemingly perfect replacement.

She spent her days chasing a career, while her nights were a boozy smear of restaurants, speakeasies, and amorous encounters. None of the characters in the story are likable, but events are getting a few twists and you cannot put the story down. I would recommend this book to the fans of the above as well as fans of The Girl on the Train, Behind Closed Doors, fans of Miranda Smith, Sheryl Browne, Sue Watson, K.

I wasn't a huge fan of Mark but I will say that he didn't slate Alice in regards to her parenting skills and they did try to do their best and work together with Alice for Cassie. I am insanely in love with George Cross, a perfect detective for our time and for all time' Stephen Fry. It's one of those books where you just sit back and enjoy the next chapter, and the next, and the next. Then the last like 4 chapters you can’t stop reading because it’s all unraveling, but it still isn’t tied up with a neat bow. Nick is still married to his childhood sweetheart Jen, an interior designer who's completely devoted to her husband.
