Wow , what a book! Couldn’t put it down at all! Lots of secrets, twists and turns! Kinda gutted it’s finished now!

Jill and Wendy live next door to each other. They become firm friends, accepting each other's faults.
Then, their teen children attend the prom together and there is a tragedy. This terrible incident divides the families.
Jill is desperate to find out the truth of that night, and will stop at nothing to get the truth.

A riveting tale told from two points of view. There are twists and turns, and secrets are revealed in every chapter.


Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the ARC.

Another great read from Sue Watson. Alternate chapters from friends Jill and Wendy who are on a weekend away in rural Wales. Jill is recently separated from womanising husband Tim and also grieving the loss of her son Leo. Wendy has always been the life and soul of the party but since the death of Leo, her life has also changed dramatically due to her daughter Olivia, Leo's friend.
This weekend will see friendship changed forever as secrets are revealed and long held suspicions are voiced.
Each time I read a Sue Watson book I'm drawn into the novel straightaway, she builds the tension and slowly releases it a chapter at a time. It's never a case of just one more chapter as you can't put it down until you've finished.

It's always a great day when I see a new book by Sue Watson coming out, but right now I'm sitting here speechless. I have loved every one of her books, but this one far surpassed the others. It was so crazy good I couldn't read it fast enough but now that I finished it I'm sad that it's finished.

Neighbors turned friends Jill and Wendy are living the good life in a beautiful neighborhood with their families. Though Jill has had problems trying to conceive in the past, she finally gives birth to her son around the same time Wendy has a daughter. This should have brought them closer but it seems to put a strain on their friendship and drives them apart. Years later tragedy strikes and leaves their barely hanging on by a thread friendship in tatters. The narrative is told through both their POV'S and their take on the truth of what happened.

Welcome to the neighborhood where the outer beauty is tainted by neighbors who aren't who they present as and everyone is hiding secrets. This book is so dark and twisty!! It's the perfect definition of domestic suspense.This is a must read but make sure your schedule is clear! I absolutely cannot wait for Sue's next book!!

Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the advanced copy

Sue Watson's books are must reads for me and this twisted, crazy, drama filled book is another must read.

Talk about drama and you may think you know but trust me not everything is what it seems and the characters are unlikable but it's those types of characters that you love them even though you dont like them.

I read this in one sitting as there was no way I was putting it down as I had to keep going and find out what's next with these two "friends".

A definite recommend

Yes!! 5 stars!! Ehat a book, twists, great story great characters, hard to say anything but great thing about this book. I devoured it!!!
Sad I sailed through it and it's over though
Sue Watson is one of my favorite authors.

Thanks to the author, the publisher and Netgalley for an early release of this book.

WOW Sue certainly did it again with this book. Absolutely brilliant with all the twists definitely like being on a roller coaster as you never know what is going to happen next.

Thank you Netgallery for letting me read this book as I love all of Sue Watson books and this one definitely didn't disappoint. Each chapter kept you wanting to continue reading and the characters were brilliant. Definitely one to recommend to other people to read.

Well done Sue another brilliant book x

Great book from Sue Watson. You will not know who to trust in this book. I must admit I never saw the ending coming.

I abandoned what i was reading to grab hold of this latest offering from Sue Watson.
A fabulous drama about neighbours who become friends and entwined with each others families.
Jill and Wendy appear to be totally different people, one is carefree and full of life the other is paranoid and envious but everything is not what it seems.
Such well written characters especially the main one's who i took turns in disliking.
Great twists and the who done it became epic!
My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.

Book slump is officially over thanks to Sue Watson. Wife Mom, Liar was a one gulp read. I literally could not put it down.

The story begins with two best friend neighbors raising their children together until one of the kids ends up dead and the friendship is destroyed as one mom searches for the truth over what happened. At least that’s what I thought it was about. Then I kept reading.

This twisty novel kept zigging when I thought it would zag. It was a roller coaster with no breaks. The tension never let up.

Stylistically my favorite part was how each chapter ended. The last sentence compelled me to keep turning the pages- there were some jaw dropping cliffhangers.

Fans of an unreliable narrator and frenemies will love this psychological thriller.
