A very interesting legal dilemma entwined in a murder mystery. I loved the enigmatic ending and would love to discuss this with my book club. It is useful to have read some of the previous novels to understand Joe's background but the…

Another excellent book by this author. I've no other choice but to start buying his books as it appears I now have read all of the ones held by the library. This is a tragedy in itself!

This man never does disappoint me. His writing skills are so excellent, intriguing , hard to put down stories. Writes so well, yet, feels like the man next door, since, he is so well understands human nature and human problems of today.

Great read. Heard Michael Robotham speak recently about his fascination with secrets. And his encounters with real "other wives".
