My hands shake as I watch him cup her pretty face in his hands. He tells her he'll love her forever, the way he once promised me. And that's when I swear to get my revenge...
Looking out at our beautiful estate, the home I thought we'd raise our future children in, I watch helplessly as my husband Paul takes his mistress's arm and leads her inside. My heart twists as they laugh together, without a care in the world. If he and Marianne think they can start over without me, they're gravely mistaken.
I worked myself to the bone for him, keeping our home pristine, supporting his art, using funds from my business to keep us afloat. Tears fill my eyes as I remember all the lonely nights I spent waiting for him to come home.
My phone lights up with a message from Marianne's husband. When I told him what she'd done, I never imagined he'd reveal secrets far worse than my husband's. Or that he'd have a plan to get even. A little scare to fix both of our marriages, and Paul would never find out I was involved...
But when our carefully laid plan takes a deadly turn, I wonder just how much I can trust my accomplice. And what I'll be forced to do to get back what's mine...
An absolutely gripping psychological thriller packed with jaw-dropping twists! For fans of The Doctor's Wife, Behind Closed Doors and The Housemaid.
