Review Quote: A richly-crafted psychological thriller, Koomson's clever tale makes for disturbing and compulsive reading ― Woman
My Opinion: I usually find Dorothy Koomson's writing entertaining from page one. However this time I struggled at first, as it took me quite awhile to get to grips with the somewhat perplexing plot. Once everything clicked into place, it continued as as intriguing read.
The protagonist Cleo's world is a complicated one and the reader is continually thrown new twists and turns to keep them guessing. It appears her life has become very messy and she does not know which way to turn as she tries to extricate herself from a difficult situation.
In the end this turned out to be a compelling thriller which I can recommend to those readers that are fans of the genre.
Précis Courtesy of Goodreads:
What if your murderous fantasies start to come true?
Someone is trying to frame me for murder.
They're hurting people in the ways I write about - and making sure I'm the prime suspect.
I think I know why.
But I can't tell the police or even use my rock-solid alibi . . .
Because then I'd have to confess about my other husband.
A series of terrifying murders. A set of complex lies.
And a woman with no way to clear her name.
My Other Husband is the latest gripping thriller from the Queen of The Big Reveal.
