The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena

 The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena
336 pages




It all started at a dinner party. . .

A domestic suspense debut about a young couple and their apparently friendly neighbors--a twisty, rollercoaster ride of lies, betrayal, and the secrets between husbands and wives. . .

Anne and Marco Conti seem to have it all--a loving relationship, a wonderful home, and their beautiful baby, Cora. But one night when they are at a dinner party next door, a terrible crime is committed. Suspicion immediately focuses on the parents. But the truth is a much more complicated story.

Inside the curtained house, an unsettling account of what actually happened unfolds. Detective Rasbach knows that the panicked couple is hiding something. Both Anne and Marco soon discover that the other is keeping secrets, secrets they've kept for years.

What follows is the nerve-racking unraveling of a family--a chilling tale of deception, duplicity, and unfaithfulness that will keep you breathless until the final shocking twist.


I gave this book 5 stars on Goodreads because it was so good. I have read several books from this author and she is quite amazing. She has a knack for moving you one direction and then slipping the rug out from underneath you. I highly recommend this book if you love thrillers. I won't give out any spoilers, but the way this book ended it couldn't be real life. Except it would be something that you could watch on a true crime documentary.
