Summary
Would you defend your husband if he was accused of killing his mistress?
Sarah Morgan is a successful and powerful defense attorney in Washington D.C. At 33 years old, she is a named partner at her firm and life is going exactly how she planned.
The same cannot be said for her husband, Adam. He is a struggling writer who has had little success in his career. He begins to tire of his and Sarah’s relationship as she is constantly working. Out in the secluded woods, at Adam and Sarah’s second home, Adam engages in a passionate affair with Kelly Summers.
Then, one morning everything changes. Adam is arrested for Kelly’s murder. She had been found stabbed to death in Adam and Sarah’s second home. Sarah soon finds herself playing the defender for her own husband, a man accused of murdering his mistress.
But is Adam guilty or is he innocent?
Tay’s Thoughts:
This book is definitely an easy read, I couldn’t put to down once I picked it up. It is full of twists and turns and is a must for anyone who loves true crime. As you take this journey with these characters you think you know what’s happening and how it’s going to end and then you reach the end and you are gut punched. You’re left thinking “what the heck just happened”, and it almost warrants a reread to see where your detective work failed.
Overall it was entertaining and I probably will read it again, if you are even slightly intrigued I highly recommend taking a peak, many free versions are available online, free audiobooks are also available on many sites as well as Spotify.
