Blurb:
"WHAT IF YOUR WHOLE LIFE WAS BASED ON LIES?
When
Joe Lynch stumbles across his wife driving into a hotel car park while
she's supposed to be at work, he's intrigued enough to follow her in.
And when he witnesses her in an angry altercation with family friend Ben, he knows he ought to intervene.
But
just as the confrontation between the two men turns violent, and Ben is
knocked unconscious, Joe's young son has an asthma attack - and Joe
must flee in order to help him.
When he returns, desperate to make sure Ben is OK, Joe is horrified to find that Ben has disappeared.
And that's when Joe receives the first message . . ."
My Review:
OH. MY. GOD.
I
finished this book at 2 am, and it was soooooo good. I read
it over the weekend and seriously couldn't put it down. It was fast-paced with lots of twists and turns. I was seriously out of breath at times from how much my heart was racing. I read it from cover to cover without stopping as if I was in some kind of race. Seriously, I didn't want to be social or binge-watch anything on Netflix the whole time I read it. This is MY kind of book.
I liked Joe a lot. He's a true family man - great dad, loyal husband very forgiving. Sometimes TOO trusting... It's always interesting to read a book from a man's point of view - most books I read are from a woman's point of view (I'm a chick-lit addict, what can I say), so at first I wasn't sure if I would relate to Joe but I totally did. He fought to keep his family together and take care of his child.
Okay, so, he's gullible. But clearly so am I!! I was totally blind-sighted by everything that happened in the story. I didn't predict anything - not a single thing. When I thought I had something figured out, something else happened entirely. It was amazing. I highly recommend this book - I really enjoyed it!
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing a copy of this book for an honest review.
