The Perfect Marriage

 


This was chosen as our Marine mom's book club book for the month of March 2024.  It took me just a few days to finish the book.  Jeneva Rose has a way to her writing that makes you want to finish the book quick.  The twists is enough to make you wonder and just keep on going.  It was written as a narrative from  both the husband and the wife's point of view which adds to the mystery.

Sarah, the wife is a very successful lawyer in Washington, D.C.  Adam, the husband is a struggling writer.  They decided to have a lake house to help with his writing and to escape from the city.  This is where he met Kelly his mistress.  The mistress was found brutally murdered in the bedroom of their lake house.  Sarah decided to defend her husband even when all evidence pointed to Adam being the killer.  

Jeneva Rose will keep you on the edge on who was the real killer all through to the end.  It is a page turning mystery thriller.  Some reviewers did not like the fact that there were scenes where you will ask yourself - how could Adam not know or why would a wife defend a husband accused of killing his mistress and some other details that seem to make it like there was not enough research done about police procedures, etc.   but I don't mind it.  I just want to know who killed and why.

 Now, I should stop saying more or I'll be spoiling the book for you.

Enjoy!
