About the book:

Three people. One marriage. One murder.

YOU: My handsome husband Tom. You’ve given me everything – our beautiful son and our perfect new seaside home. I want to trust you, but I know you haven’t been honest about why you really wanted to move here. I haven’t been honest with you either…

ME: I make a secret promise as Tom kisses me and pours a glass of ice-cold wine to toast the first night in our dream house: I’m going to forget about his past. For the sake of our son, I’ll keep this family together, no matter what.

HER: Chloe is the only friend I’ve made since the move. I love our long lunches, even though she asks prying questions about my marriage. Tom hates me spending time with her, but I ignore his warning to stay away. I’ve seen the way he looks at her. It’s better to keep your enemies close…

You may think you know what’s going on in my marriage, but you’ll be wrong. Only three things are true: Someone is a liar. Someone is in danger. Someone is a killer.

Fans of The Housemaid, The Perfect Marriage and The Girl on the Train will love this absolutely jaw-dropping psychological thriller. With twist after twist, you won’t be able to put this book down!

You, Me, Her by Sue Watson is a domestic psychological thriller novel set in Cornwall. You, Me, Her is told in the first person perspective by the main character in the present timeline but does slowly reveal some past events over the course of the book.

Rachel is happily married to her husband Tom and the two have their lovely little boy, Sam, together. Rachel inherited a huge sum of money and Tom convinced her it was time to get out of Manchester and move to Cornwall. The house that Rachel and Tom bought definitely needed a lot of renovating though so Tom moved on ahead to Cornwall while Rachel stayed behind with their son.

Now Rachel is finally joining Tom in Cornwall in their new home but the repairs and purchase have put yet another financial strain on them despite Rachel’s inheritance so Tom begins to travel again for work. Being left in a new town Rachel finds herself getting close to their realtor despite Tom warning her away from Chloe when they first met, surely her husband is wrong about the lovely new neighbor?

Sue Watson is an author that I have read many many times before and I always enjoy returning to her somewhat fast paced twisty thriller novels so I was excited to pick up You, Me, Her. It didn’t take any time at all to virtually travel over to Cornwall and get completely engaged in this story and this was the fast paced twisty tale that I expected. I was torn between wanting to munch on some popcorn as it all unfolded and throwing my popcorn at the character to get her to watch out for the reveal that was surely coming. Definitely an author I’ll continue to return to in the future.

I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley.
