The Loving Husband by Christobel KentMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Atmospheric psychological thriller that journeys through the effects of love and trust. Fran comes to live in the Fens with her husband and children leaving London and her friends, family and job behind her. She’s entirely reliant on her husband where trust is paramount.
Often left alone with her daughter Emme and Ben the new baby, Fran has placed her life in husband Nathan’s hands, cut off from all she knows.
Tragically one night she discovers him dead on their farm and her life starts to unravel. How well did she know Nathan, who was she married to?
Cleverly woven sub plots come together and the murderer is exposed but not before several red herrings have been discarded. It was a decent story but let down by hollow characters and Frans ‘secret’ being a bit weak - having said that it was an enjoyable read and worth 4 stars
I would like to thank the publisher for sending this in exchange for an honest review.
