How well do you know your husband?

When Alice Gill sees the little blue line, it's the happiest moment of her life. But her whole world is turned upside down when the police knock at her door minutes later...

Her husband, Dominic, is dead.

Distraught, Alice goes to identify the body. It's him. Yet, when Dominic's estranged brother comes to view the coffin, he insists the man lying there is not Dominic Gill.

So who is the man Alice married?

And will his secrets put her life in danger too?

An absolutely gripping psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the last page. If you love Behind Closed Doors, My Lovely Wife, and Friend Request, you'll be hooked on The Man She Married.
