A missing husband…
Gemma turns to the police. She is horrified by what she discovers – a serial killer is on the loose in Bristol. When she sees photos of the victims she is even more stunned…they all look just like Danny.

Who would you believe?
But the police are suspicious. Why has no one apart from Gemma heard from Danny in weeks? Why is there barely a trace of him in their flat? Is she telling them the truth, or is this marriage hiding some very dark secrets?

Review
I've read Jackie's previous books which are in the cosy crime genre and loved them. I wasn't sure what to expect from this book but she has come up with a real tale.
This book had me believing one thing and then another, I was trying to second guess what was going on throughout the book. My theories changed minute by minute and I had to take a few breaks to get my head around what I was reading. I actually read this book in a day - I just had to know what the heck was going on.
Gemma is a freelance writer and ex journalist - so when she returns home from a trip and her husband is missing and so is all trace of him having been in their home - she enlists the help of an ex colleague to try and work out what could have happened to him.
Meanwhile two men are dead and they both look like her husband - is he also dead? and if he is, who killed him?
So many things I want to write, but I fear they may give the story line away. I will say that once you've read a book it's easy to say you could see it all along, but really I doubt you could!
I'm giving this book 5 out of 5 stars and my thanks to netgalley for the ARC to review.
