THE WOMAN INSIDE is a great suspense novel by E.G. Scott. This one really threw me, and I didn't see a lot of what ended up happening actually coming. I was shocked by most of it. The book was a little slow in parts, but not for long. It goes back and forth from before and after. In the beginning, I thought I had already figured things out, but I was wrong, and that is the mark of a good suspenseful novel to me. Pick this one up, I really enjoyed the twists and turns.
