Description

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“Her best book yet.”
Harlan Coben
The million-copy bestselling Queen of Twists Alice Feeney returns with a gripping and deliciously dark thriller about marriage. . .
. . . and revenge.

Author Grady Green is having the worst best day of his life.

Grady calls his wife to share some exciting news as she is driving home. He hears Abby slam on the brakes, get out of the car, then nothing. When he eventually finds her car by the cliff edge the headlights are on, the driver door is open, her phone is still there. . . but his wife has disappeared.

A year later, Grady is still overcome with grief and desperate to know what happened to Abby. He can’t sleep, and he can’t write, so he travels to a tiny Scottish island to try to get his life back on track. Then he sees the impossible – a woman who looks exactly like his missing wife.

Wives think their husbands will change but they don’t.
Husbands think their wives won’t change but they do.

“Magnetic and jaw-dropping.” —Mary Kubica, bestselling author
"Unforgettable." —Chris Whitaker, bestselling author

Reviews

  • Page turner

    By susiemroipad
    What a twist. Excellent book to read‼️
  • Don’t waste your time

    By loves a food book
    Poorly written, poorly edited; regret every minute I wasted reading it. I love a good plot twist but this couldn’t come up with one so misled the reader on several fronts to create a ridiculous ending. Embarrassed for the author.
  • Best book I have read in a year

    By Mmm meggie
    This exceptionally well written book not only captures the reader from the beginning it is also thought provoking, intense, and unforgettable.
  • So Good

    By llarese13
    I really liked this book.
  • Thrilling!

    By Wild-caster
    This book will keep you guessing until the very end. And even then, you’re not sure what to believe.
  • Twisting & Turning

    By Awwenrich98
    I thoroughly enjoyed this story.. each page drawing me further in and the twists and turns had me guessing — completely wrong! A great read.
  • Bad man and reader punished

    By dmenuez
    The single star is credit due for luring me into this intriguing yet ultimately infuriating and ridiculously bad book.
  • Needs a good edit

    By Davis, CA
    There are some nice passages, good thoughts, observations and ideas. But in my opinion too many passages telling us how the character is tired, sleepy but can’t sleep, disoriented and confused. That and inconsistencies in the text hold this story down (character finds a novel, stays up all night and reads it in one sitting. Some pages later the author tells us the character hasn’t been able to read for months because the words shift around on the page). Some good editing would help the interesting plot become a better story.
  • Edging and engaging

    By Susana Salmeron
    A confusing story but very interesting I couldn’t stop reading it!
  • Well…..

    By Cesttresformidable
    If this were marketed as a young adult mystery, maybe, but as an adult I have to say that I have not read such a silly novel in a long time.
