‘A dark, sexy thriller where no one is who they seem. I devoured it! You will too!' Sunday Times bestseller Sarah Pinborough You think you love him. But can you trust him? ‘Dark, twisty and enthralling’ Paul Finch ‘Wow I loved this book, every word on every page, a brilliant page turner! *****’ Goodreads reviewer A gripping debut psychological thriller about the dark secrets in a perfect marriage. For fans of Shari Lapena. I ended my marriage for a man who didn’t exist… I have everything money can buy. I’m a good wife, but sometimes I feel trapped. And when I start an affair with a stranger called Ewan, my life changes in ways I can’t begin to understand. Because Ewan breaks apart my marriage piece by piece and then he just disappears. He uses a fake name and leaves no trace behind; it’s like he doesn’t even exist. Someone did this to me and now they’re waiting for me to unravel, watching my every move. I can’t trust anyone, not even myself – not even the people I love. Readers love The Stranger in Our Bed ‘Dark, twisty and enthralling. A commanding new voice in suspense writing’ Paul Finch, bestselling author Shadows ‘Samantha Lee Howe cleverly wrongfoots the reader and does so again and again. A fascinating study in lies, evasions and deceptions’ Abbie Frost, bestselling author of The Guesthouse ‘Samantha Lee Howe does a great job of painting a picture of a woman who no longer knows who to trust or what is real; sinister and thought provoking’ Jackie Kabler, bestselling author of Am I Guilty? ‘A brilliantly twisty thriller … you never really know quite what is true and who to trust. A fantastic read that kept me glued until the heart-stopping end’ Stephen Edger, bestselling author of Till Death Do Us Part ‘A must read. This book is just brilliant, the best I have read!’ Goodreads reviewer ‘What a spine-tingling thriller! 5 stars!’ Goodreads reviewer ‘Wow I loved this book, every word on every page, a brilliant page turner!’ Goodreads reviewer
