A well l written and totally engaging novel.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Well written and totally engaging it deals with a passionate extramarital affair that quickly eads to violence, and murder. The story is further enhanced by a a subsequent court room drama which features lies and betrayal. This was my first Louise Doughty book and I will definitely look for others that she has written. Highly recommend. The narrator was excellent too.
