This was such a great psychological thriller!!
The story starts with Emma meeting a man named Sam and the two start a relationship. Soon Emma gets pregnant and one day when she calls Sams number, a woman answered the phone claiming she is Sams wife. Is Sam leading a double life?
This was a fast paced thriller with lots of unexpected twists and turns. The author has written very well that the reader feel like they are watching some thriller movie and being on the edge of the seat. All characters are highly unreliable and untrustworthy which made the story bit compelling as to who is actually telling the truth. Emma is an unreliable character and so this made the story enjoyable. The ending to me was a bit confusing but unexpected. Overall this thriller worth five stars!
