Reviews-
October 25, 2021 Elisa Wright, the protagonist of this convoluted domestic suspense novel from Kane (Pretty Little Wife), is in a fragile mental state following a traumatic occurrence at her former job in administration at a Philadelphia hospital. Now, 11 months after the incident, she’s working from home part-time as an accountant and not venturing far from her neighborhood. Elisa becomes even more stressed after she learns that her brother-in-law, Josh Wright, just seven months after the mysterious disappearance of his fiancée, her friend Abby, is serious about a new woman. She’s shocked by Josh’s cavalier disregard for Abby’s fate and begins to believe that Josh knows more about Abby’s whereabouts than he’s admitting. When she voices this opinion, Josh and her husband urge her to see a therapist or get additional medication. Are these remedies what she needs, or are they merely a means of distracting her from discovering the truth? Kane does gaslighting scenes well, but they get repetitive after a while, and Eliza takes too long to take even tentative steps toward regaining her sense of self. Kane has enough talent to suggest she can do better next time. Agent: Laura Bradford, Bradford Literary.

In Kane's (Pretty Little Wife) latest novel, Elisa Wright has a loving husband, a precocious son, and a big house in the suburbs. Her problem is her brother-in-law, Josh. Elisa is convinced that Josh murdered his two wives, both of whom allegedly died in freak accidents. She is also sure that he murdered his most recent fianc�e, who has mysteriously disappeared. Harris, Elisa's husband, believes that Josh is innocent and that Elisa has become unbalanced after a recent horrible traumatic experience. Karissa Vacker does an excellent job narrating this work of domestic suspense, capturing the unique voice of each character. Listeners will experience Elisa's fear and doubts through Vacker's modulated tone and pacing. VERDICT Patrons who like unraveling mysteries with multiple red herrings will enjoy this exciting audiobook.--Ilka Gordon
