Kill Your Husbands
Jack Heath
Reviewed by Helen
This is a twisty story that had my mind going in all directions, I thought I had it worked out and then no I didn’t, what happens when six friends go away for a weekend together, four of them had gone to high school together two married into the group, the house is in the mountains, no internet, no phones a weekend of drinking bush walking and fun, lots of discussions but when partner swapping is bought up, will it happen?
The answer is yes, with rules three woman will pick a room all lights are out and then the men will enter a room, there is to be no talking no one will know who they slept with, all should be good afterwards that is until one of them turns up dead.
The five reaming realise that the phone isn’t working and the keys to the car are missing, suspicion abounds they need to leave but it appears that the killer is not finished yet, what will they do?
Enter new detective Kiara Lui and the investigation begins Kiara questions all witnesses and is not yet clear on what happened but she will not give up, two weeks later Kiara takes her partner Elise for a romantic weekend at the same house and soon Kiara is thinking this wasn’t such a good idea but she is also discovering some facts while there.
This is a fabulous story truly I changed my mind so many times on who the killer is, is it just one or more and why, why did this all happen, were there plans in place before the weekend started or did it just happen because of things that happened on the weekend?
So many questions to be answered, you need to read this one to discover the answers, Elise and Kiara were in Kill Your Brother and I loved that one as well and they are fabulous characters. This is such a well written story, with a awesome ending that I do highly recommend to any reader who loves a good mystery thriller, fabulous character, a must read.
My thanks to Allen & Unwin for my copy to read and review.
