Book Review: "The Couple Next Door" By: Shari Lapena



Title: The Couple Next Door   By: Shari Lapena
Publication Date: 8/23/2016

Summary:

How well do you know the couple next door? Or your husband? Or even—yourself? 
People are capable of almost anything. . .

A domestic suspense debut about a young couple and their apparently friendly neighbors—a twisty, rollercoaster ride of lies, betrayal, and the secrets between husbands and wives. . .

Anne and Marco Conti seem to have it all—a loving relationship, a wonderful home, and their beautiful baby, Cora. But one night when they are at a dinner party next door, a terrible crime is committed. Suspicion immediately focuses on the parents. But the truth is a much more complicated story.

Inside the curtained house, an unsettling account of what actually happened unfolds. Detective Rasbach knows that the panicked couple is hiding something. Both Anne and Marco soon discover that the other is keeping secrets, secrets they've kept for years.

What follows is the nerve-racking unraveling of a family—a chilling tale of deception, duplicity, and unfaithfulness that will keep you breathless until the final shocking twist. -From www.amazon.com

Review:

Do yourself a favor and don’t make plans for the day if you are going to pick up this book.

There are problems with books this good:
-          I get nothing done that day.
-          It’s over in a couple hours.
-          All I can talk about for the whole week is the awesome book I just read.

I don’t even know where to begin. I couldn’t put it down. It was non-stop from the first page. Everyone in the story is screwed up, and as you peel back the layers, it just becomes more twisted. Absolutely loved it. If you like mystery/thrillers, just read it. I promise you will like it. Then call me so we can talk about it. J
