Some people’s secrets are darker than others.

Sophie Whitehouse has a lovely home, two adorable children, and a handsome, successful husband. In other words, she has the “perfect” life. But everything changes the night her husband James comes home and confesses an indiscretion. Suddenly, her neat, ordered world is turned upside down. Did she ever really know the man she married?

And, as it turns out, James’s revelation is just the tip of the iceberg. He stands accused of a terrible crime. But, the truth is even more shocking than anyone ever could have thought. Is James the guilty perpetrator or an innocent victim of a toxic agenda?

In this riveting story of love, revenge, and deception, no one’s motives are pure, but some people’s secrets are much darker than others. Fiction Genre Fiction Legal Literary Fiction Suspense Thriller & Suspense Women's Fiction Crime Law Thriller Marriage Exciting

The story lost me about half way in as it does begin to drag. The end does a complete 180 like it’s a totally separate story so the flow is a little strange.

The performances are excellent in this audiobook, especially that of Kate. As a political junkie I was drawn in immediately to the story. No spoilers here. The overall concept was great, but I was hoping for a little more meat on the bones for the ending.
