Every marriage has its secrets… Beth and Tom Hardcastle are the envy of their neighbourhood – they have the perfect marriage, the perfect house, the perfect family. When the police knock on their door one evening, Beth panics. Tom should be back from work by now – what if he’s crashed his car? She fears the worst. But the worst is beyond imagining. As the interrogation begins, Beth will find herself questioning everything she believed about her husband.

They’re saying he’s a monster. And they’re saying she knew.

Reader’s review (good one)
“This is complex, head spinning, absolutely disturbing, twisty and truly delicious psychological thriller which introduces us a new debut author Alice Hunter!

As soon as I finished the book and I wanted to read her bio and I found out Ms. Hunter’s main job was interventions facilitator in prisons, working at rehabilitation programs to men serving sentences, especially working with prisoners who’d committed serious brutal crimes! It really explains how she managed to portray the dangerous mind of a real criminal. Especially BDSM parts of the book and the narration parts explain the killer’s instinct; the motivation and the thirst of committing crimes are blood freezing, terrifyingly bleak but also realistic!

We have four narrators in this book: 1.Tom: a exemplary, great husband and father is arrested for killing his ex girlfriend…2. Tom’s wife Beth who tries to adjust in her new life with their beautiful kid Poppy but after their reputation has been tarnished, she will have to learn to live as killer’s wife! 3. Katie: 8 years ago she’s met with Tom and she thought she was so lucky to be chosen by him. But later she starts seeing the real face of her controlling lover and she feels trapped in her relationship. What happened to Katie? Is she really dead? Could Tom act such a violent crime against her? And 4. The unknown narrator who is forced to have BDSM kind of sexual relationship with a man: we’re not sure it’s Tom! And the woman can be anybody! Is she still alive to give us her identity?

What does Beth know? Will she help her husband to save him from prison? Does she keep important secrets, which may change everything about their lives? And could her husband be a vicious killer? Don’t worry! All your questions will be answered during this wild ride! I absolutely enjoyed this twisty, surprising, heart pounding reading! It’s a fresh start and intriguing debut novel earned my four criminal minds, dysfunctional relationships, and perfect couple stars!”
