Publisher Description
A husband’s disappearance inextricably links two couples in this twisty thriller from New York Times bestselling author Mary Kubica
Two couples, two close friends, one missing spouse...
Jake Hayes is missing. This much is certain. At first, his wife, Nina, thinks he is blowing off steam at a friend’s house after their heated fight the night before. But then a day goes by. Two days. Five. And Jake is still nowhere to be found.
Lily Scott, Nina’s friend and coworker, thinks she may have been the last to see Jake before he went missing. After Lily confesses everything to her husband, Christian, the two decide that nobody can find out what happened leading up to Jake’s disappearance, especially not Nina. But Nina is out there looking for her husband, and she won’t stop until the truth is discovered.
Queen of suspense Mary Kubica delivers a high-octane, edge-of-your-seat thriller filled with delicious lies and shocking betrayals, and shows how even the deepest secrets will always find a way to the surface.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The bond between two couples erodes when a husband goes missing. Bestselling author Mary Kubica crafts a suspenseful, slow-burn domestic thriller that revolves around expecting married couple Lily and Christian, whose lives seem perfect…until Lily encounters their friend Jake in the woods. Now, Jake is missing and his wife, Nina—who’s also Lily’s friend and co-worker—is deeply concerned and hell-bent on tracking him down, no matter what ugly truths she unearths along the way. Kubica’s taut storyline doesn’t have an ounce of fat on it, making it a truly gripping read. The story alternates between Christian’s and Nina’s perspectives, dialling up the twists and tension. We couldn’t put Just the Nicest Couple down.
Customer Reviews
Page turner
Good page turner with plenty of twists. Easy, enjoyable read.
Blah
Formulaic and a bit dull
Plot twist
Did not see the plot twist coming in this book. That in itself makes it a good read for me.
