My Word Against His: A totally unputdownable psychological thriller packed with jaw-dropping twists | Lauren North
4 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
My future hangs in the balance. They're questioning both of us and every word I say matters. I need to be careful - it's my word against his, and I can't afford to lose... Thirteen years ago. Teenager Lucie babysits our little son Henry. She's like the daughter I never had. And she believes we're the perfect family - just me, my husband and Henry. But Lucie doesn't really know what's happening behind closed doors. Until one night, she sees something so awful she leaves. And my family is never the same again... Now, Lucie has reached out, desperate for my help. It's been thirteen years of silence, but I would recognise her voice anywhere. She's back: and so are the secrets she took with her. What did she see that night? And does she know my side of the story, or only his? I hope she knows what she's doing. Because there is no line I won't cross to protect the ones I love - or the secrets I've worked so hard to hide... An absolutely gripping psychological thriller where no one is who they seem, that will make your heart pound and your jaw drop! Perfect for fans of addictive page-turners like The Housemaid, The Family Across the Street and The Family Upstairs. What readers are saying about My Word Against His: 'Wow!!

'I'm speechless, literally lost for words... Beyond brilliant!... Had my pulse racing... I was completely hooked from the very beginning... I devoured in just one sitting... spectacular...

Kept me on the edge of my seat... I could not look away from the pages for a second. I was completely engrossed from start to finish... A must read! Left me speechless.' Goodreads reviewer, ?????

THRILLER

Could we add a few others to the mix?

MY WORD AGAINST HIS is very tense, and you don't know who to trust, who to like or dislike, who is lying, or who to feel sorry for.

So hold onto your hats folks....surprise after surprise is there as you continue.

Another good one by Ms. North.

Thanks to #netgalley for the ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review. Went into this one blind and so glad I did! This plot had me hooked from the very start, I was mesmerised by it and as it started unfolding and I thought I knew where I was being led, the rug was pulled out from under me. I loved the expertly woven past and present timelines. A perfect domestic thriller read. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lauren North really wrote an edge of your seat thriller. It was hard to put down. Several twists and turns to keep you guessing. There are a few things that completely surprise you.
You'll meet Celia, Lucy, Sam, Henry, Martin in this book. Each has their own troubles. Each has their own secrets. One, possibly more, will end up dead. Who did it? Was there more than one? What caused this or these deaths?
