What his wife knew

Jakeman, Jo (author.).

Summary: "A delicious nail-biter of domestic suspense that puts a contemporary twist on the classic whodunit, from the acclaimed international author of The Exes' Revenge and Safe House. When the body of Oscar Lomas, an experienced hiker and all-round favourite fellow in his small town, is found at the bottom of a remote cliff in the Peak District of England, all the signs, including the 'Sorry' note he left behind for his wife, Beth, point to suicide. Plans for the funeral begin, but Beth cannot accept that her husband took his own life. As strange things begin to happen around her, she becomes convinced that someone is responsible for his death. She sets out to discover what really happened, with the help of her oldest friend Molly who instantly leaps to the rescue (which conveniently distracts her from the mess of her own life). Beth soon realizes that the safe, protected life she thought she had was in truth nothing of the sort, and that Oscar had kept many secrets from her; secrets that involve even close family and old friends. It turns out that Beth's husband had enemies--and perhaps she did too, even if she didn't know it. As the troubling revelations keep coming, Beth has to focus on solving one mystery if she is to reclaim her own life and keep her children safe: who killed Oscar Lomas? Packed with a rich cast of characters, every one of whom could be friend or foe, this clever, entertaining mystery is perfect for fans of a classic whodunit in a thoroughly modern setting"--
