Publisher's Summary

My husband was not a monster. No matter what they say....

The day my husband, Michael, stepped in front of a lorry after being questioned by the police, my world fell apart. He was devoted to me and our six-year-old daughter. But they’d connected him to the disappearance of a young mother from our tiny village.

Now I stand at Michael’s funeral, clutching my little girl’s hand, with tears in my eyes as I insist to all our friends that he died an innocent man. Yet the questions have started, and nothing I say will stop them digging for the truth.

But none of them can read the secrets in my heart, or know about the phone I found hidden in his toolbox....

I’m determined that my daughter will not remember her father as a monster. I will erase any hint of wrongdoing in this house whatever the cost.

Because to keep my daughter safe, the last thing I need is for people to start looking at me....

A completely gripping psychological thriller from the author of the number one best seller The Marriage. If you like Gone Girl, The Girl on The Train and The Wife Between Us then you will love The Widow.

Captivating read

This book was great all the way through. The story line was interesting and unpredictable. With a surprising twist , it holds your attention until the end. Small minded village people, infidelity, missing persons, dead bodies and unexpected villans it has a host of characters to hold your attention.

No complaints!

.Just the right amount of suspence and foreshadowing. Sometimes the unknowns are too much for me to wait on so I end up finding spoilers online. This was a gentle yet intriguing read. Very likable characters.
