‘Welcome to the street!’ I say cheerfully as my new neighbor opens the door. But the moment I see her, my blood runs cold. I would know those bright blue eyes anywhere. She looks exactly like my husband’s ex-wife. The one who went missing. The one declared dead a decade ago…
I hurry back home, determined to get to the bottom of this strange coincidence. But my husband, Charles, tells me I’m just imagining things.
Anastasia is a beautiful young widow, and has moved to our idyllic, tree-lined street for a fresh start with her little girl. All my friends love our glamorous new neighbor, and my daughter, Matilda, wants nothing more than to play with her new best friend over the road.
Just as I’m about to accept my husband’s pleadings and put it down to paranoia, Anastasia says something that turns my world upside down. I can’t stop my hands from shaking and my heart from pounding. Does she know the one thing about me that she shouldn’t?
Now, I am sure Anastasia is lying.
And as my perfect life begins to crumble around me, I realize that my baby girl and I might really be in terrible danger.
But I have a plan of my own. This “widow” has no idea how far I’ll go to keep my family, and my secrets, safe…
An absolutely unputdownable psychological thriller that will have you glued to the pages and screaming at your Kindle at the jaw-dropping twist. If you love The Perfect Marriage, Gone Girl and anything by Lisa Jewell or Nicola Sanders, you’ll be hooked on The Widow’s Lie!
MY REVIEW
I love a book with a good unreliable narrator and in this book we have double the fun with Anastasia (Anna) and Jacqueline having opposing POV. Both are mama bears who will do anything to protect their daughters. So when their daughters become fast friends the day that Anna moves across the street from Jacqueline, it presents an opportunity and a dilemma.
Can Anna get close enough to Jacqueline’s husband Charles to find out who she really is without giving herself away? And can Jacqueline find a way to get rid of Anna, without revealing her own secrets?
In a twist you won’t see coming, the decision is made for them. And no one is safe.
