My husband was not a monster. No matter what they say....
The day my husband, Michael, stepped in front of a lorry after being questioned by the police, my world fell apart. He was devoted to me and our six-year-old daughter. But they’d connected him to the disappearance of a young mother from our tiny village.
Now I stand at Michael’s funeral, clutching my little girl’s hand, with tears in my eyes as I insist to all our friends that he died an innocent man. Yet the questions have started, and nothing I say will stop them digging for the truth.
But none of them can read the secrets in my heart, or know about the phone I found hidden in his toolbox....
I’m determined that my daughter will not remember her father as a monster. I will erase any hint of wrongdoing in this house whatever the cost.
Because to keep my daughter safe, the last thing I need is for people to start looking at me....
A completely gripping psychological thriller from the author of the number one best seller The Marriage. If you like Gone Girl, The Girl on The Train and The Wife Between Us then you will love The Widow.

Kate and Michael and their 6-year-old daughter, Tansy; are best friends with Donna and Paul and their 6-year-old daughter, Ellie. Michael worked as the property and land manager for major landowner Irene up in Wadebridge. A polish immigrant, Suzy Baros, a single mom shows up in town with her son Aleks…and then soon disappears…
Everyone is convinced that Michael had something to do with Suzy’s disappearance.
Then one day, Michael was hit by a lorry, and sadly passed away in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. Now at 34, Kate was a widow.
Michael's death was ruled a suicide, but why would he take his own life?
The local police, led by Detective Inspector Helena Price, through their investigation, find that Michael and Suzy had many secrets.
Kate is determined to find out the truth, and prove her husband’s innocence, so her young daughter won’t remember her dad as some kind of monster. But Suzy is still missing. What is going on? I had to keep reading to find out the truth.
This is a well-written, compelling thriller. The plot is complex with stand-out characters. This book was full of twists and turns and kept me guessing until the very end, which I absolutely love in a book. The ending was quite surprising, and totally unexpected.
Many thanks to the author, Bookouture and Netgalley for my digital copy.
This is the first book by this author I've read, but I can say without a doubt it won't be the last.

The story centres around Kate, a contented wife to Michael and mother to Tansy. After another young mother in their village disappears suddenly, Kate's husband Michael becomes the prime suspect, shattering Kate's world and everything she believes in. Secrets and lies are exposed and Kate no longer knows who she can trust.
I love the author's style of writing and found this to be a fast paced story with multiple layers and twists and turns. I found the characterisations believable and I especially warmed to Kate and the way she clearly wanted to believe the best about Michael, despite the overwhelmingly evidence against him.
Although the clues were there, I did not figure out the ending or guess whodunit, which is always another plus for me.
I'd highly recommend this to anyone who has enjoyed the author's previous books, and, to anyone who hasn't previously read one, this is as good a place as any to start! I'm eagerly awaiting K L Slater's next book.
Thanks to publishers Bookouture and Net Galley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.


How wrong was I ….I found this book so lame and unlikely and will not be reading any more of this author’s books.
If you enjoy mills and boons then this book will probably be for you.
