JENA’S REVIEW
The Perfect Couple by Jackie Kabler
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Lovely Gemma, married less than a year, is settling into her new place in Bristol, England with her husband, Danny. They are enjoying their nicely appointed home, painting and decorating it together, creating a nest for their future family. Gemma is a freelance writer and Danny is an IT specialist and together, they have it all. They are the perfect couple.
Until…cue the scary, screeching violins…Danny doesn’t come home one night. Or the next day. Or the day after. When Gemma decides she must go to the police and report her husband missing, she finds the police are busy with several unsolved murders. One by one, young adult men have been found bludgeoned to death. The police aren’t too worried about Danny, until they realize that Danny looks like the murdered men, with dark curly hair, and thick eyebrows.
As Gemma copes with losing her husband, the police discover that things are not as Gemma told them. Danny has never been seen in Bristol. He never went to work. He never emailed, called or used his bank accounts. The neighbors have never seen him. Only Gemma. Did Gemma kill Danny? And is she a serial murderer?
Warning, once you start this brilliant book, you have to finish it in one sitting. The plot is deliberately slow and well-paced. Gemma tells her story, in the first person and it’s as if you are living her horror right along with her, one puzzling and agonizing day at a time. The police are well-developed characters and you really can’t blame them for how they proceed. And wait until you get to know Danny!
Suspense, thrills, police procedural, and a good old-fashioned creepy scare await you. Highly recommend.
