The Dead Wife- Sue Fortin-Crime/psychological

Steph works independently for a travel journal after her university course in

journalism.She is going on an all expenses paid trip to a resort which is having

a grand re-opening.The resort belongs to the Sinclair family,comprising of a

mother and her three sons. She tweets about it in order to raise her profile and

is astonished when she receives a message asking her to look into the death of

one of the wives of the owners of the resort. Even more so when she finds the

investigating officer was no-one other than her own mother- a former DCI.

The verdict has been that Elizabeth Sinclair drowned two years beforehand after

trying to save her pet dog- something her mother Sonia who sent the message

to Steph doesn’t agree with. Everyone else agrees it was an accidental tragedy

and that Sonia is slightly unhinged with it all. Steph however isn’t put off and

wants to find out more about what really happened. We get occasional

chapters from two years ago in the lead up to Elizabeth’s death and what was

happening at the time. I liked Steph and admired her tenacity. There is an air

of mystery about this (as there should be!) but done in a very clever way.

You know someone is hiding facts and may even suspect the culprit but then

again may change your mind! A family that sticks together and defends each

other with the funds to get rid of most issues. A clever plot (and I didn’t work

out who the perpetrator was), likeable characters, a touch of humour and a

touch of romance.

A highly enjoyable read that kept me turning and wanting more.
