The Trapped Wife

The rain hammers the glass outside. My husband has stoked the wood burner with a fresh supply of logs, and I've just put a joint of beef in the oven. It's the most clichéd Sunday afternoon ever, and it's the most heavenly one, too. Little do I know that days later, the ash in the fire will be all that remains of us... My perfect life... I really thought I had it all - a dream job as a doctor in small town, a stunning modern house, a family I adore - but that illusion shattered the moment my husband Jeremy left on a work trip and vanished without a trace. Now my son and I are all alone in the world. My missing husband... My best friend thinks Jeremy had an accident up in the mountains, that I'll never see him again and need to move on. I know he loves us too much to ever abandon us, but my head is still spinning with the texts I found on his phone before he left. We've been so happy for so long, but do I really know the man I married? The night I can't remember... Everything changed the night of the medical conference weeks before Jeremy disappeared. I wrack my brains for answers, but everything goes blank after my first drink. Ever since, I've felt like I'm being followed and can't explain why panic thunders in my chest every time I see my newest patient. If he's not local to the village, then why does he seem so familiar? And so dangerous? As I piece together the shards of what really happened that fateful evening, only one thing can possibly be true: everyone is lying, even me... Readers love Samantha Hayes: 'Wow!...
