Summary

We promised to keep each other’s secrets。 Until they found the body…

The Wife:

My husband and I are fighting for our lives in hospital after a terrible car accident。 But despite my pain, all I can think about is what our families will find behind our front door。 The scarf that has been all over the news, belonging to a dead young woman with honey-coloured hair。 I have to speak to the police before my husband can…

The Husband:

I’m drifting in and out of consciousness, but when I hear my wife talking to the police, accusing me of the murder of an innocent woman, a cold fear grips me。 I know I’ve got a temper。 That I’ve not always been faithful。 Will they think I killed her?

I think of my wife’s jealous streak, of the lies she’s told our loved ones。 But if I tell the whole truth, they’ll look into her past。 And that will destroy me, too…

Two people fighting for their lives。 Two people with secrets to hide。 Who will you believe?

4。5 stars rounded up, because it was such a quick, fun read。 A little unbelievable at times, but I never mind that in fiction。 Most of the chapters were on the shorter side, which made it easy to read just one more - ok, maybe two more。 And I didn't figure everything out ahead of time (only a couple of things) which is always nice。 The chapters changed from the viewpoints of the husband and wife (Parker and Luna), to Parker's mother, Nicola, and some from Luna's mom as well。 Everyone in the stor 4。5 stars rounded up, because it was such a quick, fun read。 A little unbelievable at times, but I never mind that in fiction。 Most of the chapters were on the shorter side, which made it easy to read just one more - ok, maybe two more。 And I didn't figure everything out ahead of time (only a couple of things) which is always nice。 The chapters changed from the viewpoints of the husband and wife (Parker and Luna), to Parker's mother, Nicola, and some from Luna's mom as well。 Everyone in the story has secrets, and I was never bored as they were revealed。 And it flashes back and forth from the present to different times in the past, and that worked well to move the story along。 This is my first novel by K。L。 Slater, but I enjoyed it so much that I'm starting another of hers that I've had on my Kindle for a while。 Recommended for anyone in the mood for a fast paced, fun, popcorn thriller。 。。。more

A well written psychological/thriller, crime murder mystery。 Told from several points of view。 Also, past and present recollections from most main characters, as well as the police investigating。At first I wasn't sure where this story was going and almost stopped reading。 However, it suddenly got quite interesting and I had to keep reading。 There are lots of twists and I never saw the main one coming near the end。 Set in England。 A well written psychological/thriller, crime murder mystery。 Told from several points of view。 Also, past and present recollections from most main characters, as well as the police investigating。At first I wasn't sure where this story was going and almost stopped reading。 However, it suddenly got quite interesting and I had to keep reading。 There are lots of twists and I never saw the main one coming near the end。 Set in England。 。。。more

This book definitely made me realise that I need to read more of K。L。Slater。 This thriller was captivating and made me guess constantly until towards the end。• It is told from multiple POVs and it all comes together beautifully。 I loved Nicola's character which gives a 'mama bear' vibes。 The twists and turns keep you on the edge but it was so satisfying at the end。 This book definitely made me realise that I need to read more of K。L。Slater。 This thriller was captivating and made me guess constantly until towards the end。• It is told from multiple POVs and it all comes together beautifully。 I loved Nicola's character which gives a 'mama bear' vibes。 The twists and turns keep you on the edge but it was so satisfying at the end。 。。。more

WHAT DID I JUST READ!!!! I DID NOT EXPECT THAT!!! MIND BLOWN MUCH!!! I MEAN SERIOUSLY, HOW DO YOU MAKE EACH BOOK BETTER THAN THE LAST WHEN EVERY BOOK IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING KIM?!?!Wow!!! This book is fantastically written and had me hook, line and sinker from beginning to end。 The descriptions were so in depth and vivid that the hair on my arms was standing on the ends and my heart was pounding throughout。 The synopsis, title and cover were perfect for the storyline。I was absolutely absorbed throughout this page turner。 It is filled with tension, suspense, murder, lies, secrets and omg the twists!!! I DID NOT see any of them coming!!! A MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS K。L Slater!! It is getting harder and harder to shock me but by God you did that over and over and over!!! What an ending!!! One of the most gripping unputdownable nerve wracking psychological thrillers I have EVER read!!! You lady have one hell of a talent and I cannot wait to get hold of your previous and future books。 I cannot remember the last time I was so hooked by a book but you managed that big time!!! The storyline is filled with crime, shocks, murder, secrets, twists, suspense, tension, deceit and revenge。 There was not one, two but at least 3 explosive bombshells I did not see coming!!! There was so much going on and it was very fast paced and kept me on the edge of my seat throughout。 Im not going to go too much into the storyline as I don't want to give anything away and everything you need to know is in the incredible synopsis。 However I do want to say that I absolutely LOVE the fact that in this book we get to see the story from so many different perspectives!!! The protagonists are Nicola Vance and her son Parker Callum Vance。 Parker's wife Luna and Luna's mum Marie。 We also get to see what is going on from the police investigating the murder of Sarah Grayson (another protagonist) DI Helena Price and DS Kane Brewster。 What is absolutely fantastic is that even though I got to see what was going on from so many points of views and what each was thinking and doing, I still had absolutely no idea who had killed Sarah or what the characters were hiding!!! To find out more yourself then you will just have to grab your copy today to find out won't you?! Yet again KL Slater has created an unpredictable and unputdownable, gritty, suspense and tension filled explosive page turner that will have you addicted from the first page to the last!! Her fantastic evocative writing skills brings the storyline and characters to life in front of your eyes and will keep you glued to the pages!Clear your schedule before you start as I read this in one sitting as I could not put it down!! Practically every chapter ended on a cliff hanger so no way could I put it down!! Absolutely hooked!! I would absolutely love to see this turned into a movie!!!! It is set over multiple time lines。 When books show what has happened in the past and what is happening in the present I find it really helps the reader (if it is well done) understand why things are happening and what has lead to the present activities and decisions。 It also shows the bigger picture。 I was completely invested in both the storyline and the characters。 Each of the characters had their own unique personalities and I felt differently about each of them。 As always K。L Slater has managed to create several realistic, flawed, unlikeable and questionable characters that she brings to life with her creative and evocative writing skills and puts them into what should be an everyday storyline but makes the reader question everything and everyone they are seeing, reading and meeting throughout!! As with the storyline I won't go into any details about the characters as I don't want to run the risk of giving anything away and spoiling this incredible storyline for future readers。 I will say that I did not have a clue who to trust and I never did work out who was hiding what。 What I am safe to say though is that I loved DI Helena Price and DS Kane Brewster who were the investigating officers in Sarah's murder case。 I am sure I have "met" them before in one of Kim's books but for the life of me I can't remember which one/s。 However, I just loved their characters, their team dynamics and their personalities and they are definitely characters that I would love to see again。 I don't think I've ever seen another authors book where there are so many protagonists that include such an insight from the police as well as so many different characters。 It is risky to have so many as it can cause confusion but Kim has done an amazing job and weaves all the different timelines and characters stories together perfectly not causing any confusion into whose point of view I read from or what timeline the chapters were talking about。 If you want to know more you will just have to click the link below to get a copy!! All in all a great mix of characters that worked well with this storyline and regardless of whether you love them or hate them they all played their parts perfectly along with KL Slaters fantastic writing skills making each of them jump out of the pages coming to life in front of your eyes。 This is exactly why you are in my top author Club K。L Slater and your book is one of the best psychological thrillers I have EVER READ!! Bring on the next one!!! I cannot wait!!! Here's to the next success 🥂 Make sure you read to the very end of the book to read the prologue and the first three chapters of KL Slater's absolutely addictive 'The Marriage' which is another explosive page turner and one I have read myself and would highly recommend!!Overall an absolutely heart racing, never wracking, unputdownable addictive psychological thriller!!! 350 pages。This book is just £1。99 to purchase on kindle, free with kindle unlimited and £9。98 in paperback (at time of review) via Amazon which I think is an absolute bargain for this book!!!

My thanks to Bookouture for an eARC via NetGalley of ‘Husband and Wife’ by K。L。 Slater。Having read a number of Slater’s domestic/psychological thrillers I was fairly confident that her latest would prove almost impossible to put down。 I was correct。The story moves between a few of its character’s points of view in the novel’s present as well as flashbacks to earlier events。 Nicola and Cal are a settled married couple with an adult son, Parker。 They are looking after their grandson, Barney, while My thanks to Bookouture for an eARC via NetGalley of ‘Husband and Wife’ by K。L。 Slater。Having read a number of Slater’s domestic/psychological thrillers I was fairly confident that her latest would prove almost impossible to put down。 I was correct。The story moves between a few of its character’s points of view in the novel’s present as well as flashbacks to earlier events。 Nicola and Cal are a settled married couple with an adult son, Parker。 They are looking after their grandson, Barney, while Parker and his wife, Luna, head off for a weekend away。 Before they leave Parker says to Nicola that when they return he needs to talk to her about something important。Yet before that can happen Parker and Luna are involved in a serious car accident and both are hospitalised with critical injuries。 Nicola goes to their home to gather extra clothes and toys for Barney。 While there she comes across a distinctive silk scarf - one that had been all over the news recently。 Some weeks before Sarah Grayson had worn a scarf like this on a night out。 When her body was found there was no sign of the scarf。 The police had put out an appeal seeking to locate this vital piece of evidence as they believed that she had been strangled with it。 Could her beloved son be involved? Or Luna, who is prone to jealous rages? Or is there an innocent explanation? After the police question Luna and the semiconscious Parker, it isn’t long until detectives come knocking… No further details to avoid spoilers。As noted above this was a total page turner。 There were times when I was quite frustrated with Nicola’s behaviour as her instinct to protect Parker often seemed to overwhelm her common sense。 Overall, I found ‘Husband and Wife’ a gripping domestic thriller that proved very satisfying。 4。5 stars rounded up to 5。 。。。more
