A darkly funny tale of marriage, rage and revenge
Eliza uproots her life for her playwright husband’s dream job in Dublin—only to simmer with resentment as he puts her last. When a suggestive photo hints at betrayal, she turns to an unconventional marriage therapist whose “solutions” take Eliza somewhere far darker than she expected.
- Book Synopsis
-
Eliza's playwright husband Richard Sheridan has accepted the career opportunity of a lifetime: running a prestigious theatre in Dublin.
Eliza plays the role of the supportive wife - uprooting their daughter Mara, relocating from England to Dublin, running the household and managing Richard's paperwork - but inside, she's burning with resentment.
When she's sent a suggestive photo of Richard with another woman, it's the last straw.
She turns to mysterious marriage therapist Ellen Early for help.
But Eliza has no idea just how far Ms. Early is willing to go to get results ...
Ideal for readers who…
- love psychological suspense about marriage, betrayal, and the stories couples tell themselves
- enjoy “relocation” thrillers where a new city amplifies isolation, pressure, and paranoia
- want a slow-build mystery with a suggestive inciting incident and escalating unease
- are intrigued by unsettling, morally ambiguous characters—especially a therapist with secrets
- like domestic thrillers with a sharp, contemporary edge and a sense that help may be more dangerous than the problem
