I Know You Killed Your Husband
by Steena Holmes

.

As we toast our champagne, Lyndy leans over and whispers six little words that change ‘I know you killed your husband.’

James and I were the perfect couple. He swept me off my feet, and after years of marriage, we still seemed totally in love. Then his sudden death destroyed everything. This girls’ trip to Paris with my best friends is my first chance to try and start again.

But at Lyndy’s words, my heart races in my chest. The police said my husband’s death was accidental. If Lyndy thinks I killed him… what else does she know?

I can’t believe my best friend would turn on me. After everything we’ve been through. Everything we covered up for her…

But the next morning, Lyndy is found dead in the hotel pool. And the letter shoved under the door to my suite makes my blood run

Now you’re free, liar.

 

My Rating:

Favorite Quotes:

 

She told me she’d never find peace. She said it was a myth, like Parisian moderation or honest men.

Someone always knows something… That’s the problem with secrets. They don’t stay in one place.

He wore charm like a tailored suit—effortless, expensive, and utterly strategic.

The only thing more dangerous than a secret is the act of pretending you don’t have one.

It feels like letting something in and trying to lock it out at the same time.

My Review:

 

I was fully invested and highly curious to unravel the mysteries, yet I despised these women. I spent most of the book wanting to kick them in the shins. Olivia was a total train wreck. I was appalled at myself for wanting to know their secrets, yet they were the type of people I would eschew having anything to do with in my real life. The storylines were maddeningly paced yet well-plotted. Despite my lack of appreciation for her characters, this wily kept me primed for the next indirect hit and eager to resume the story when forced to put my beloved Kindle down. That alone takes some powerful word dexterity and magical ink to achieve.
