Review
Firstly apologies once more for the delay in my blog post.
The second wife is a gripping thriller full of unexpected twists, its a slow burner of a reader that takes time to reach its conclusion but if you dont mind that you will be rewarded with an epic payoff.
Alex met Natalie and she changed his life, having lost his first wife he had vowed that he would always protect his daughter Jade, so to welcome Natalie into his fold was a big step for him.
When Alex arrives home one evening to his house on fire and his wife outside and his daughter inside. What makes it worse in the coming days is Jade is convinced she saw a man in the house the night of the fire. So what an earth is going on?
Like i mentioned this is a gripper but it takes work, its not a fly through pace - its like you have to earn the ending of the book itself. I enjoyed this, it really took my concentration. I did find parts a bit too out there for me, but then that is just my reading taste to be fair, nothing to do with the book.
