REVIEW~ The Guilty Wife by Elle Croft


Thanks to Lauren Woosey from Orion Books, I received an ARC of this in exchange for an honest review.......

WIFE. MISTRESS. MURDERER.
If you were being framed for murder, how far would you go to clear your name?

Bethany Reston is a successful photographer who has been happily married to Jason almost 7 years but she is having an affair with a very famous client but no-one must ever know.  But when her lover is found brutally murdered, she has to hide her shock and grief from everyone. Unfortunately someone knows her secret and then the threats ensue with a mounting pile of evidence that all points to Bethany as the murderer.  The only way she can protect her secrets is to prove her innocence which means a deadly and tense game of cat and mouse to track down the killer.

I really, really enjoyed this one, it was full of twists and turns and hold your breath moments and to be honest I never seen that twist coming at all, I was left open mouthed when I read it.  I had my suspicions of who the killer was but I was completely wrong.  I also couldn't believe that this is Elle's debut novel, it was so well written and cleverly crafted.  I'm really looking forward to reading more of Elle's work and hopefully it'll be quite soon. Now, there's no pressure here Elle but I'm really hoping that there's going to be a follow up to The Guilty Wife with the way it was left!??

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The Guilty Wife is available in all good bookshops, libraries and on Kindle from January 25th and is currently £0.99 at the time of publication of this review.
