Summary

A gripping psychological thriller with edge-of-your-seat suspense

Loving husband? Or total stranger? 

When Ella wakes up in a hospital following a hit-and-run incident, she is scared and confused. Close to tears, her eyes fall on a get-well-soon card on the window sill, and the nurse reassures her that her loving husband will be back soon....

But Ella has never been married. 

In fact, she has lived alone her whole adult life; working hard, rarely socializing, quietly harboring a terrible secret from her past.

Fear sweeps through Ella when she instantly recognizes the man who enters the ward. He is not her husband, but she knows that she must do as he says and play the part of dutiful wife. What choice does she have? He was there the night of the fire; he knows her secret, too....

Do you absolutely love twisty and unputdownable psychological thrillers like Girl on the Train, The Wife Between Us, and Gone Girl? Then you will be totally hooked by this jaw-dropping novel about the dangerous secrets behind a perfect marriage.

Implausible

An intelligent but selfish heroine who puts her own future before a kidnapped baby and work colleagues. However frustrated I was at the unlikely situation, repeatedly wondering why the multiple escape routes were not taken, I stuck with it and didn’t guess the who the lifelong abuser was.

What do I say

Really, what do I say. While listening to this book, I could see links from other books. For example Stephen King misery meets sleeping with enemy. Good read, kept me going for 1 sitting.

Well I never expected that!

First I was thinking this seems too predictable. I was completely wrong. Read it and see.

Terrible ending

‘Not too bad’ through out, great twist near the end, but then turns into unbelievable, unbearable romantic tosh.
