The Alibi: A totally unputdownable psychological thriller with a shocking twist

＂What a fun and twisty thriller! I have enjoyed other books of Taylor’s in the past, as she is exceptional at creating crazy convoluted plots, but writing in her native Australian voice made this the strongest of the ones I have read＂ - Reader Review

＂This was a really good thriller. I really enjoyed all the characters. The plot was original and the surprise ending shocked me! It was a mix of politics, corruption, and a cheating husband that took 4 strangers and intersected their lives in an unexpected and inextricable way. I highly recommend this book!＂

He’s handsome, charming, and the city’s beloved Lord Mayor. He’s also a cheating husband. But is he a killer?

When a surfer discovers the gruesome remains of council staffer Lauren Ellis in sand dunes just metres from Lord Mayor Andrew Ashley’s beachside home, rumours of his close relationship with the victim quickly begin to circulate.

Andrew’s secret affair with local newspaper reporter Elle Nolan is proof he can be an unfaithful husband - but is he also guilty of murder?

As the search for answers continues, Andrew refuses to tell police where he was the night of Lauren’s death.
