Behind Her Eyes by Sarah PinboroughRead about another entry on the list.
It is hard to talk about this novel without giving away the startling twist. On the surface, this is a fast-paced psychological thrillerset in a domestic environment. Behind Her Eyes is all about deception, though, and likely not what you think it is. The story is about Louise, a single mom who works as a secretary, who gets involved in the lives of a wealthy couple, David and Adele, who seems to lead a picture-perfect life. The more involved Louise gets, however, the stronger becomes her sense of dread, and the conviction that something is very wrong. The ending of this novel had me reeling (in a good way).
