Being the young second wife to one of the Savannah’s rising attorneys is tough. Marcie has a colorful past that she wants to remain secret. It is hard enough fitting in without everyone looking down at her past. Then comes the Boss’s new, younger, second wife. She is beautiful and all of a sudden Marcie starts feeling more inferior and it doesn’t help that her husband has taken notice of the new member to their group.
The story starts with the basic tenants of a domestic thriller but then morphs into so much more; lies, deception, and betrayal. Never have the police had so many worthy candidates for the attempted murder. The book is broken into several parts. The first half has the lies, paranoia, sex, and cheating while the second part introduces a darker voodoo vibe that plays nicely into the story.
The is a hard to put down, who-done-it psychological thriller. With the creative and manipulative ending, this is sure to a favorite book this winter. Highly recommend!
