Review: The Widow

The Widow by Fiona Barton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Love, love, love discovering new authors!
This is one of my favorite books of the year, so far.

Jean has been married to Glen for more than 20 years. She was very young, and shy and naïve when she met and married him, and so far he's been the perfect husband. Until he's accused of kidnapping and killing a little girl.

Should she believe him when he says he's innocent? When she finds out about his secret life and vices? So she keeps quiet and pretends her life can go on. Until he suddenly dies, and she starts thinking. And talking.

This is the I-can't-put-down kind of book that gets me in trouble, as I forget that I have a life, so deep I am into it. It's very well written, the characters and places are great and the plot twists and turns until you no longer know what will come next.

And I just read that this is Fiona Barton's first book? Wow!!!


I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review
