About the book
A new home. A loving wife. A secret that could kill…
With its peeling wallpaper and overgrown garden I know our new home isn’t perfect. But my husband Ben promises it’s the fresh start we need. I remind myself that he’s an amazing father to our two children, and that we have years of happy marriage behind us. He’s been distant for months but I’m desperate to believe the move will bring us back together.
When I meet our next-door neighbour Sara, I’m immediately relieved. She’s so welcoming and full of local gossip. But the moment she meets Ben I’m sure an angry frown flickers across her smiling face. Later he says I’m imagining things…
Why is my husband lying?
Then one night as I tuck our children into bed, the silence is broken by a knock on the front door. A stranger is standing on our doorstep. I turn to look at Ben’s face as he stares at her with unconcealed fury. Has he met this woman before? Nothing could prepare me for what she says: I know who you are. Get out of my house.
How well do I know the man I married? And by moving to this house, did I put my children’s lives in danger?
If you enjoyed reading The Housemaid, The Perfect Marriage and The Wife, you will love My Husband’s House. Gripping and totally addictive, you’ll be hooked from the first page.
My Review
A domestic suspense thriller about lies and secrets and if there is ever a good time for them. This is filled with twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat. It is fast paced, fraught with suspense and kept me guessing. I couldn’t decide who was trustworthy and who was not. Dual timelines that come crashing together. The plot is layered and when all the layers come off, I was surprised at the outcome. There are neighbors and kids, tragedy and a little bit of a creepy vibe.
I’m beating around the bush here to avoid inadvertently spoiling anything. Read less about this and if you love drama and domestic thrillers, give this one a chance to knock your socks off.
