From the author of The Perfect Home comes a harrowing domestic crime thriller where a former defense attorney is forced out of retirement to defend her husband—now the prime suspect in the serial murder case terrorizing Florida’s Gulf Coast. Leslie Woodhouse thought her most blood-pumping days were behind her. The only things supposed to get her heart rate up in her sunbird days were late night coffee and following the news about the Gulf Coast Killer—that is, until her mild-mannered husband Robert is charged with those six counts of first-degree murder. While she snaps back into lawyer-mode to prove Robert innocent—or at least, not guilty— Robert agonizes over a terrible family truth that could either save or destroy their marriage. Great for fans of Jeneva Rose’s The Perfect Marriage and William Landay’s Defending Jacob , this intimate and dizzying thriller about love and betrayal asks: can secrets hold a marriage together, or ultimately destroy it?
