The Wife Who Knew Too Much

In Michele Campbell's The Wife Who Knew Too Much, this shocking new thriller is so dark and twisted, it would leave your head spinning by the ending. When Tabitha Girard met Connor Ford years ago, it was love at first sight.  But when other people, like her grandmother, warned her about him, she was already head over heels in love with him. And they broke up and went their separate ways. Years later, she met Connor at the restaurant she worked at as a waitress. They reconnected and restarted their love affair, though he was married to an older rich woman he didn't love. They had to keep their reunion under wraps since he planned to leave his wife for her. But then things had hit a snag. Tabitha discovered about  her pregnancy ,and planned to tell him on Nina's 4th of July party--the same night when her ex stalked her, someone tried to run her off the road, and then Nina drowned in her pool. Shortly after her death, she married Connor and lived the glamorous life to travel to UAE for work. But when she arrived in Windswept, she learned how she was the outsider and how Nina's staff had appeared unwelcoming to her. Caught in a media blitz with the press, people pointed her out as the killer, putting additional pressure when the police came swarming in interview and later arrest her. To prove her innocence and Connor's,  she would have to find out who had it in them and why... in a life-and death battle in the end.

This was another shocking thriller that had plenty of twists and turns. I cared for Tabitha and the sordid messes she'd gotten herself into, when she was younger, and now years later. But we can see how much she cared and loved Connor, though she doubted him with a certain degree. Nina was a cold bitch we all love to have, though her staff didn't exactly worship the ground she walked on. Connor was torn and did tell the truth, though it might come too late. I didn't like Juliet much and despised her right in the end. I loved the dual locations between Dubai and good old NYC in the USA--very mesmerizing and awestruck for the scenic settings to transport us there. The theme is to be careful on who you trust and what you might know in the end.

If you love heart-stopping, twisted dark thrillers with a sucker-punch for drama, plenty of intense suspense, non-stop action, and a hint of mystery, pre-order The Wife Who Knew Too Much when it comes at the end of the month!
