What to expect

How far would you go to save your life... and prove your husband's a murderer? The unputdownbable thriller from the bestselling author of The Perfect Husband.

What if everything you believed was a lie? Your life... your marriage... your very existence.

What if the person lying to you was your husband, the man who claims to love you more than anything in the world?

Isolated in his remote Scottish ancestral home on the pretext that you are psychologically fragile and recovering from a breakdown, this place has become a prison. As the days slip by in a haze of confusion and a cocktail of drugs administered by a loyal housekeeper, you begin to piece together the fragments of your life and stumble on a terrifying secret.

What if you discover you weren't his first wife, and nor will you be the last?

That he plans to replace you, to make you disappear - just like the first wife.

What would you do?

A terrifying, gripping read, perfect for fans of Louise Candlish and Adele Parks.
