The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena
3.0
The ending was chilling...
I love a good thriller. The idea of secrecy and conspiracy coming out - Everything is connected in a giant Web. The Couple Next Door is no different.
Anne and Marco are over at their neighbours house, drinking and having fun. With only a joint wall and a baby monitor, they leave their young daughter alone and check every half hour. It's 1am. Anne is anxious to not only check on Cora but go home. It's 1.27... Anne and Marco return home... Cora is gone.
These characters were so fleshed out. The best part about the novel was that there was no hiding who was behind the kidnapping. It wasn't about a whodunit. It was about the conspiracy and the people involved. The why not the who. Incredibly fast paced and leaving you wanting more after each chapter. The ending though... Chef's kiss!
