Pretty Little Wife by Darby Kane

 "That's how they win. They destroy you in silence until you're afraid of speaking out. They attack in your own damn house, where you should be safe."

Lila Ridgefield has always told herself that Aaron wasn't an abusive husband -- but she was wrong. Damaged as she was from childhood trauma, Lila has a stoic personality and fails to understand just how dangerous Aaron is. Until she finds the videos. Her solution seems sound and takes lots of planning. It should have been the end of her problems, but then Aaron goes missing and this can't be right since she arranged things so well and remembers exactly where she left his body. NO SPOILERS.

What a great domestic thriller to end my 2020 reading list! I loved the story line and the narrative was quite twisty and fun. I found this very hard to put down and it kept me guessing until the end. I found the characters quite interesting and well-developed. I was never quite sure which version of events to believe and whom to root for, but i was quite satisfied with the conclusion. There's a lot going on in this suspense novel and I think fans of this genre will not be disappointed.
