The Death Of Us - Abigail Dean

Thriller

Rating: 8.5/10

One spring night, Isabel and Edward’s lives were torn apart. A night they have never spoken about.

Decades later, when their attacker is caught, will the divorced couple finally tell the story of that night? Not to the world, but to each other?

While waiting to give their victim impact statements, the author takes us through their relationship, its build up and its breakdown. Leaving the reader to wonder if they ever stopped loving each other.

This author’s books tell a fictional story based on real crimes, not like the deluge of crime shows and documentaries might, but in the voice of a would-be victim. It never feels salacious or gratuitous, but rather intimate and introspective.
