Weycombe by G.M. Malliet
5.0
American Jillian White has relocated to England and lives n the wealthy village of Weycombe with her titled husband. From the outside, everything is picture-perfect, but looks can be deceiving. Jill's world is turned upside-down when a local resident is murdered and Jill becomes involved in the investigation.
I have read a couple of this author's cozy mysteries and really enjoyed them. I wasn't sure what to expect from this standalone suspense novel, but I enjoyed it beyond my expectations. This book and her Max Tudor mysteries are equally well-written, but "Weycombe" is a true thriller as opposed to a clever cozy. The main character and English setting of "Weycombe" grabbed my attention from the very beginning and never left go. I couldn't wait to find out what would happen next and was completely surprised by the twists and turns the book took. I don't want to give away any of the surprises, but I truly enjoyed this thriller, which stands out from the pack from many of the recent books in this genre I have read.
I received this book from NetGalley through the courtesy of Midnight Ink. The book was provided to me in exchange for an honest review.
