challenging dark emotional mysterious tense slow-paced

3.5

When the police knock on Emma’s door late one night with the news of her husband’s mysterious murder, she doesn’t feel grief. She feels relief. 

Twenty-seven months later, Emma is happily married to Tom, who is everything her first husband was not—kind, compassionate, loving. They’re building a lovely life together until a detective shows up to discuss the case of Emma’s first husband’s murder. With twists and turns along the way, White has you second-guessing each character until the very end. 

As a psychological thriller, this one felt a bit watered down. With more dialogue about small, seemingly unimportant details than expected and a few loose ends left at the end of the book, this one wasn’t my favorite.

Thank you to Wunderkind PR for the paperback and eARC. The Second Husband is available on June 28th, 2022!
