"Do not go in there, Anna. Never go in there." The words ring in my head as I pick the lock to the only room in the house that the man I love tells me I’m not allowed to enter. Trembling as I step inside, I’m about to finally find out what happened to his last wife...
Everyone thinks my life is bliss. The love of my life, Cary, and I live in our dream home and we have a beautiful little girl, Harper. I may not have given birth to her, but I’m her mommy now. But there’s one thing we never talk about...
Cary’s wife before me, Presley, was perfect in every way. But she went missing a long time ago. Cary was distraught when he told me how she was abducted from her car, leaving behind a pool of blood. No one saw a thing.
The neighbors are always gossiping about Presley. I try to ignore them, but one day I hear something that makes my stomach flip. Presley was abducted from her home. The home I now live in. Cary lied to me about the car. But why?
As I search our beautiful home for answers, I stumble across Presley’s diary. My heart thunders in my chest as I discover the truth: Cary had something to do with his wife’s disappearance. And I’m terrified I might be next.
But Cary doesn’t know that I have a secret too. He doesn’t know how far I’ve gone to get this perfect life, and how much further I’ll go to keep it...
An unbelievably gripping psychological thriller, His Last Wife will have you flipping the pages until you reach the final, breathtaking twist. Fans of Don’t Let Her Stay, The Housemaid and The Perfect Marriage won’t be able to put this jaw-dropping read down!
Dark scary in a serial killer kind of way, really good, get to the fact that the missing wife thing in para 3/4 and so wondering if the details of the wife could be sooner and wonder if you open with His Last Wife went missing - feel free to prepare another piece of copy play with the structure (might need to learn the door thing and strip down to last wife was missing love him so much)
Maybe just switch first two paragraphs around - maybe you don’t need harper bit and just go into I’ve always wanted to be a mummy and now I finally can be. That first paragraph you can cut and weave in details in the rest of the copy
Package, copy and hook hangs together well. Make the tweaks now. There can’t be a big rewrite as there is no other angle, hangs together with the title well. Look at BOTh and see which one is stronger. Hold nerve a bit. We’d be reaching if we were to completely rework in.
But it’s GOOD
