Thriller Psychological
The author of The Pocket Wife explores the dark
side of love, marriage, and infidelity in this sizzling
novel of psychological suspense. Everybody’s luck runs out. This time it could be theirs
. . . It isn’t safe. That’s what Joe tells her when he ends their
affair—moments before their car skids off an icy road in a
blinding snowstorm and hits a tree. Desperate to keep her
life intact—her job, her husband, and her precious daughter,
Lily—Dorrie will do everything she can to protect herself,
even if it means walking away from the wreckage. Dorrie has
always been a good actress, pretending to be someone else:
the dutiful daughter, the satisfied wife, the woman who can
handle anything. Now she’s going to put on the most
challenging performance of her life. But details about the
accident leave her feeling uneasy and afraid. Why didn’t
Joe’s airbag work? Why was his car door open before the EMTs
arrived? And now suddenly someone is calling her from her
dead lover’s burner phone. . . . Joe’s death has left his wife in free fall as well. Karen
knew Joe was cheating—she found some suspicious e-mails.
Trying to cope with grief is devastating enough without the
constant fear that has overtaken her—this feeling she can’t
shake that someone is watching her. And with Joe gone and
the kids grown, she’s vulnerable . . . and on her own. Insurance investigator Maggie Devlin is suspicious of the
latest claim that’s landed on her desk—a man dying on an icy
road shortly after buying a lucrative life insurance policy.
Maggie doesn’t believe in coincidences. The former cop knows
that things—and people—are never what they seem to be. As the fates of these three women become more tightly
entwined, layers of lies and deception begin to peel away,
pushing them dangerously to the edge . . . closer to each
other . . . to a terrifying truth . . . to a shocking end.
