Review of The Woman in the Park


This short book definitely covers a lot of ground. This is a debut novel by these two authors and I’m looking forward to what they will come up with next as this book was very engaging. Sarah is a stay at home mom although her children are in boarding school, which she hates. She also has a love/hate relationship with her husband who she believes is having an affair. Sarah spends her time going to see her therapist, going to yoga and also frequents a park where parents bring their children to play. She notices one mom in particular but has no contact with her. She is horrified when the police come to her door informing her this woman has been murdered. Sarah is further alarmed when she realizes the man she is having an affair with is this woman’s husband. The story is so interesting because we aren’t sure what is fact or fiction. We know there has been trauma earlier in Sarah’s life but we aren’t sure how it affects her now. This is a fast paced book that keeps you guessing. I really enjoyed this one. If you’re looking for a quick suspense read this is for you.

Thank you to Teresa Sorkin and Suzy Approved Book Tours for my copy for review.
