Pretty Little Wife by Darby Kane

3.0
Pretty Little Wife had nothing for me but I trudged on, not really sure what I was looking for. The final twist at the end saved the book for me.
It started off on the wrong foot for me (if I weren't listening to it I'd have DNFed) but it ended on such a bang. I loved the ending! Loved.
I found the silent connection between the two female main characters from beginning to end special, and intriguing. Kane had injected her female characters with such wit, cleverness and enigma — traits women in the thriller mystery genre seldom have.
“She’s put the emphasis where it should be. Off the men who killed, and on the women who made a difference.” Reading Pretty Little Wife after all the other ones I’ve read prior to it felt like vindication :)
