Grace Holloway keeps to herself. Since narrowly escaping death at the hands of the man who kidnapped her, she’s thrown herself into the small inn she runs in Rock Harbor, Maine. It’s quiet, quaint and, in the off-season, completely isolated—the perfect place for Grace to keep her own secrets. But Grace isn’t the only one with something to hide, and Rock Harbor isn’t just a sleepy vacation town. Someone is taking young women—girls who look an awful lot like Grace did when she was kidnapped so many years ago.

My husband is a doctor. He’s smart and charming, and everybody trusts him. Except me. On the surface, it looks like I have it all–the perfect marriage, the perfect husband, the perfect life. But it’s far from the truth. Doctor Drew Devlin is not the respectable figure he makes out to be. The reason we moved to this beautiful, old property with a gorgeous view of the sea was because we needed to put our past behind us. It should’ve been a fresh start for us both.

Publisher's Summary
An Instant Bestseller!
The New York Times | USA Today | The Globe and Mail | The Toronto Star
New York Times bestselling author Tarryn Fisher delivers a pulse-pounding, fast-paced suspense novel that will leave you breathless. A thriller you won’t be able to put down!
Imagine that your husband has two other wives.
You’ve never met the other wives. None of you know each other, and because of this unconventional arrangement, you can see your husband only one day a week. But you love him so much you don’t care. Or at least that’s what you’ve told yourself.
But one day, while you’re doing laundry, you find a scrap of paper in his pocket—an appointment reminder for a woman named Hannah, and you just know it’s another of the wives.
You thought you were fine with your arrangement, but you can’t help yourself: you track her down, and, under false pretenses, you strike up a friendship. Hannah has no idea who you really are. Then Hannah starts showing up to your coffee dates with telltale bruises, and you realize she’s being abused by her husband. Who, of course, is also your husband. But you’ve never known him to be violent, ever.
Who exactly is your husband, and how far would you be willing to go to find out?
And who is his mysterious third wife?

spoiler alert. derivative
the writer is a very good writer but the story starts off intriguing and..again ***spoiler*** here so stop reading if you dont6 want to know the twist...
I actually hate the; it was all a dream/she was crazy/died long ago wrap up. it's so unfair. you can make up any old story and use the convenient; a crazy hallucination or whatever to explain everything. I listened twice to be sure I hadn't missed something but no, and then I didn't even know if what she was doing was actually happening. so listening the second time I'm thinking, is she really getting drunk with her friend? is she really a nurse? I mean who knows. if this is all it takes to get published, I could get published too.

Has an unexpected twist
Of course twists are welcome in any thriller but they should be hinted at, this one smacks you in the face. But, it’s an engaging story and the narration is top notch.
