The Forever Home by Sue Watson

 



You thought you’d always be safe there… you were wrong.

Carly had thought they’d always live there. The beautiful Cornish cliffside house they’d taken on as a wreck, that Mark had obsessively re-designed and renovated – a project that had made him famous. It was where they’d raised their children, where they’d sat cosily on the sofa watching storms raging over the sea below. It was where they’d promised to keep each other’s secrets…

Until now. Because Mark has fallen in love. With someone he definitely shouldn’t have. Someone who isn’t Carly. And suddenly their family home doesn’t feel like so much of a safe haven.

Carly thinks forever should mean forever though: it’s her home and she’ll stay there. Even the dark family secrets it contains feel like they belong to her. But someone disagrees. And, as threats start to arrive at her front door, it becomes clear, someone will stop at nothing. Because someone wants to demolish every last thing that makes Carly feel safe. Forever.

An utterly unputdownable psychological thriller about what lies are hidden in the most beautiful homes. Perfect for fans of Date NightGone Girl and The Woman in the Window.



What Did I Think:

Although I have been aware of this author for quite sometime when I checked my Goodreads it appears I have marked a majority of reads to be read - but this one is the first book of hers that I have. Shocking really!!
But what a book - a family psychological drame/thriller and one that I didn't want to stop reading. If other things (such as life hadn't got in the way) I think I could have read this book in one sitting it was that good.
Mark and Carly appear to have the perfect life - but then one night it all comes crashing down around them - goes to show you don't know what is going on behind closed doors. And the fallout from the revelations reach far and wide.
I am definitely going back to read some of Sues earlier titles - hopefully they are as good as this one.
