Eden Fox, an artist on the brink of her big break, sets off for a run before her first exhibition. When she returns to the home she recently moved into, Spyglass, an enchanting old house in Hope Falls, nothing is as it should be. Her key doesn’t fit. A woman, eerily similar to her, answers the door. And her husband insists that the stranger is his wife.
One house. One husband. Two women. Someone is lying.
Six months earlier, a reclusive Londoner called Birdy, reeling from a life-changing diagnosis, inherits Spyglass. This unexpected gift from a long-lost grandmother brings her to the pretty seaside village of Hope Falls. But then Birdy stumbles upon a shadowy London clinic that claims to be able to predict a person's date of death, including her own. Secrets start to unravel, and as the line between truth and lies blurs, Birdy feels compelled to right some old wrongs.
My Husband’s Wife is a tangled web of deception, obsession, and mystery that will keep you guessing until the last page. Prepare yourself for the ultimate mind-bending marriage thriller and step inside Spyglass – if you dare – to experience a story where nothing is as it seems.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A woman desperately searches to uncover the truth about herself in this unputdownable mystery. Artist Eden Fox goes out for a jog one morning and forgets her keys. Returning home, she knocks on the door, only for it to be opened by a woman who claims to be her and her husband, who seems not to know her. The surreal nightmare grows as more and more people deny that they know Eden, sending her on a quest that leads to a shady company making claims that it can predict the day you’ll die. Alice Feeney has truly outdone herself with this totally unpredictable thrill ride. As Eden’s investigation spirals into the bizarre, she discovers she can’t trust anyone, not even herself. My Husband’s Wife is the kind of thriller that had us racing to the end because we absolutely had to know the truth.
Customer Reviews
Pretty good
There is one aspect that’s pretty farfetched, but for the most part, the mystery was unpredictable and there were no “holes” in the story that would leave the reader with unanswered questions. Overall, well done in my opinion.
