Pretty Little Wife by Darby Kane

by Books to Barbells Book Club, July 20, 2022


Synopsis 
 
Debut author Darby Kane thrills with this twisty domestic suspense novel that asks one central question: shouldn’t a dead husband stay dead?

Lila Ridgefield lives in an idyllic college town, but not everything is what it seems. Lila isn’t what she seems. A student vanished months ago. Now, Lila’s husband, Aaron, is also missing. At first these cases are treated as horrible coincidences until it’s discovered the student is really the third of three unexplained disappearances over the last few years. The police are desperate to find the connection, if there even is one. Little do they know they might be stumbling over only part of the truth….

With the small town in an uproar, everyone is worried about the whereabouts of their beloved high school teacher. Everyone except Lila, his wife. She’s definitely confused about her missing husband but only because she was the last person to see his body, and now it’s gone.


REVIEW

⭐⭐⭐⭐

When’s the last time that you read a debut novel that kept you on the edge of your seat the entire time? That’s what “Pretty Little Wife” was to me.
.
After careful planning and preparation, Lila has the perfect murder and cover up for her husband , High School teacher Aaron. But things don’t go right when himself and his SUV are missing. What happened to her carefully detailed plan?
.
But why would she want to kill off her “perfect” husband and ruin her “perfect” life?
Perhaps maybe Aaron is a sexual predator after Lila finds Incriminating videos of him and young girls?
.
There are so many secrets that come out during the duration of this novel and all the plot twists happen at the perfect time to get everything in place. Lila and her journey took me on a wild ride and I can’t wait to read more by this author, especially since this was a debut novel.
