From the USA Today bestselling author comes a gripping thriller about a divorce attorney who’s about to discover her own marriage is based on lies when she’s arrested for murder.
Attorney Olivia Sinclair is shocked when she receives an anonymous video showing her husband Richard sleeping with someone else. After years of handling other people’s divorces, she thought she could recognise a marriage in trouble.
She angrily throws Richard out of the home they share. But days later she’s arrested—for the murder of his mistress.
Olivia knows she’s innocent but, with all the evidence pointing at her and an obvious motive, she must find the real killer to clear her name.
She may be used to dealing with messy divorces, but this one will be her most difficult case yet. Olivia’s husband has already betrayed her—but would he set her up for murder?
A gripping and unputdownable thriller for fans of Gillian McAllister, Alafair Burke and A Killer’s Wife.
MY THOUGHTS:
This was my first book by Terry Lynn Thomas. I have found a new to me author. I'm so excited to read the next in this series.
This book was so good. It had so many good things going on. A woman who thought she had it all. A happy marriage. A lucrative law practice. A beautiful daughter. A home that was picture perfect. Was it all a lie?
Olivia Sinclair was a successful divorce attorney who just celebrated her sixty second birthday and retirement. She's married to a very handsome successful attorney, Richard, and has a beautiful daughter,Denny. A lovely home and lots of wonderful friends. But...
Richard is Olivia's husband. He has a problem. He can't seem to be faithful. He thinks it's perfectly ok to have as many affairs as he wants. After all a man has needs... He's truly the definition of a cad. A jerk of the worst possible kind. An adulterous insolent man without a conscious or thought about anyone but himself. I did not like Richard. But could he be so heartless as to set his wife up for murder? Is he that cold and callous?
This book will keep you turning pages. It has so much going on and will keep you guessing until the truth comes out. I do usually figure these out but this time I pegged the wrong person. I didn't guess who the murderer was. The things that Olivia Sinclair goes through and the depths she will go to to prove her innocence and to save her daughter from the same kind of life are endless. I throughly enjoyed this book. It kept me turning the pages until I finished it. I loved how the author pulled all the things together for an ending that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The descriptions are so well written and the feelings so well said. I felt the fear in not only Olivia but her daughter. The cruelty in Richard and in their son in law David. Both men are just cold and believe women are their property.
This was one of the best books I have read. I look forward to many more by this author. Her sequel THE WITNESS is on my TBR list. I can't wait.
Thank you to #NetGalley, #TerryLynnThomas, #HQDigital for this wonderful book. This is my own true feeling of this book.
5/5 stars and a very high recommendation.
