Thanks to Bookouture Books for my gifted ebook to write my honest review.
We seem like perfect families. But our secrets must never come out…
I trust my best friend Lydia with my life. We share everything, even the things we can’t tell our husbands. So when we go on a beach holiday together, it’s a dream come true. One night, we treat ourselves to dinner on the beach with our husbands while our children sleep soundly in the cottage behind us.
But when I go to check on them, my entire world shatters. My son’s bed is empty, the window wide open, his favourite teddy left between the crumpled sheets. I stifle a scream as my worst nightmare comes true. My little boy is gone. It’s all my fault.
As the police question us, Lydia gives me a nervous look. She’s the only one who knows I’ll have to lie. Because there’s something about my son that not even my husband knows. And if anyone discovers the truth, they’ll never let me see my darling boy again.
No one can find out my secret. No one knows just how far I’ve gone to have the perfect family. And I will stop at nothing to get my son back…
A completely addictive thriller that will keep you flipping the pages into the early hours of the morning. Perfect for fans of Shalini Boland, Sue Watson and K.L. Slater.
My Review
Two families, best friends on holiday in India together, what could go wrong? When Jo and Yash’s son, Ajit, goes missing from his bed, it starts an unravelling that no one in the friendship group could have foreseen. A grenade exploding is how I saw it, and it isn’t a pleasant sight!
I loved the way Renita D’Silva has written this. The way she has included the social media and news articles that are published during the headline news of a British boy missing in India. This gives it more of a real feel. For me, it reminded me so much of the Madeleine McCann case. This made me feel like I did when the news hit about Madeleine McCann being missing.
I was so invested in this psychological thriller. I didn’t trust any of the characters, and it made the suspense rack up for me. The story is told from the present and past, which adds to the complexities of the story. I do love a twisty, layered story that keeps you guessing, right up to the conclusion, and Two Perfect Couples fits perfectly!
