Emma's Biblio Treasures
She can be relied upon to deliver an intriguing, gripping and entertaining read filled with revelations I never saw coming. But it seems someone isn’t happy about the new arrangements: there are threatening messages, strange incidents and malicious accusations. The Wife Next Door certainly lived up to those expectations, keeping me guessing up until the jaw-dropping finale. Would she be able to prove her innocence?
I felt pretty sure she wasn’t paranoid but also couldn’t decide who could be behind what was happening. Protagonist Jess was a great character.
Jess’s family are concerned she’s paranoid but she’s sure someone is out to get her and tear their new blended family apart…Taut, tense and filled with surprising twists, this is another first-class domestic thriller from Rona Halsall. So much so that I don’t even read the synopsis before requesting her books or applying for the blog tour. Or would Halsall deliver one of her sensational twists to reveal she isn’t who I thought? My heart went out to her as things spiralled out of control and I helplessly watched her life fall apart.
Halsall puts the reader in her shoes and makes us feel everything she does. In an attempt to put their son, Toby, first they move into new homes next door to each other with their new partners and their children and try to create the perfect blended family. Jess and her ex-husband Rob are determined not to let their break-up stop them from being friends. Rona was one of the first authors whose books I reviewed and has become a must-read author for me.
Unsettling, claustrophobic and totally riveting, this is a must-read for any thriller lover.
