The Perfect Marriage
Review by Debbie Brahmi, ACLS Pleasantville Branch
THE PERFECT MARRIAGE is fast-paced psychological thriller that will keep you wondering “whodunit” up until the very end. Fans of Freida McFadden will love this book. It’s a quick, easy read with a delicious twist at the end, and there’s a sequel on the way!
Sarah Morgan, a highly successful Washington, DC, defense attorney, is married to Adam, a not-so successful writer, who convinces his wife to buy a “lake house” so that he can get away from the city and concentrate on his next book. As Adam continues to struggle with his writing, he begins to resent Sarah’s continued success (she becomes a partner in her law firm!) and (no surprise here) he meets and falls in love with another woman as Sarah becomes increasingly unavailable to him due to her insane workload. Adam’s affair with his mistress remains a secret for over a year (!) until her mutilated body is found in the master bedroom at the lake house. All the evidence points to Adam, and he is immediately arrested and charged with first-degree murder, so he calls the best defense lawyer in town, who happens to be his wife. Adam declares his undying love for Sarah, and she agrees to represent him, because despite the fact that he has been cheating on her, she still loves him and is now ready to have the child that he has always wanted, but the trial will test the boundaries of this already fragile marriage.
Read THE PERFECT MARRIAGE to find out if Sarah and Adam live happily ever after…or not.
