Sophie Hannah
William Morrow
Book Review by Bob Walch
Thanks to the Internet you
can create a fantasy world and relationships with individuals you
never expect to actually meet in a face to face situation. For Nicki
Clements this provides the opportunity to enjoy a secret life quite
different from the one she lives with her husband and children.
Nicki’s online email
“connection” is with a man who wants her to share a secret or two
she’s never divulged to anyone else. Perhaps because of the
anonymity of the situation or because she has an urge to unburden
herself , Nicki agrees. Granted this is perhaps not a sound idea,
but once the emails begin flying back and forth, Nicki is hooked and
becomes quite candid with information that’s been locked away for
quite some time.
Then disaster strikes in a
way Nicki never imagined. She is arrested for the murder of her
correspondent, a man she has never met face to face. Although she
isn’t guilty of this crime, Nicki’s secrets and deceptions are
now about to be laid bare for everyone to see.
As the police try to get
to the bottom of this intriguing crime it becomes obvious that
although the principal suspect may not be guilty of the homicide she
is charged with, there are things in her past that make her far from
being an “innocent” bystander.
The nature of secrets is
questioned in this psychological thriller that underscores that
everyone has a secret or two that should not be shared with anyone no
matter how compelling the reason may be.
Sounds like a great read for suspense fans. Thanks for the post.
