'Wow. This one will keep your bedside light on until the small hours - it's unputdownable.'
Richard & Judy

Fran Hall and her husband Nathan have moved with their two children to a farmhouse on the edge of the Fens - a chance to get away from London and have a fresh start.

But when Fran wakes one night to find Nathan gone, she makes a devastating discovery. As questions about her husband and her relationships start to mount, Fran's life begins to spiral out of control.

What is she hiding from the police about her marriage, and does she really know the man she shared her bed with?

Recensione:

Wow. This one will keep your bedside light on until the small hours - it's unputdownable. (Richard & Judy)

Kent is an extremely fine writer and makes terrific use in particular of the Fens' waterlogged, empty landscape in which secrets can be easily buried if never quite forgotten...Terrifyingly good (Metro)

Shocking in the extreme. The Loving Husband is a twisted psychological thriller (Sun)

Atmospheric and psychologically acute throughout (Sunday Times)

Christobel Kent is one of our most assured thriller writers. The Loving Husband is a perfectly paced and plotted novel (Good Housekeeping)

Firmly in the currently fashionable "domestic noir" genre, but this is no catchpenny trend-chasing; Kent effortlessly rises above other entries in the field . . . the familiar is confronted and inverted and Kent's ace in the hole is her keen penetration of the characters' psychology, particularly that of beleaguered heroine Fran (Barry Forshaw Financial Times)

Unsettling domestic thriller . . . Spooky and skilfully written, this is one to race through (Sunday Mirror)

Fans of a good old-fashioned page-turner will love this (Closer)

A finely-crafted series of flashbacks . . . excellent thriller . . . tense, dense, extremely well-plotted and beautifully written, this is a fine example of the Domestic Noir genre (Sunday Irish Independent)

A tautly plotted trail of red herrings, scares and eventual revelations that keep the Gone Girl fever-type buzz alive (Jon Wise Weekend Sport)
