Synopsis: She’ll do anything for you…
My name is Alex, and my world has been shattered.
My husband has left me.
My children won’t speak to me.
My friend Carrie is the only person I have.
She’s the only one I can trust to keep all my secrets.
She’d never do anything to let me down.
Would she?
This dark, gripping psychological thriller will have you holding your breath until the very last page. Fans of Behind Closed Doors, Sometimes I Lie, and The Girl on the Train will be captivated.
The Perfect Friend is another winning psychological suspense from Barbara Copperthwaite that will keep you guessing almost right up until the end! This is the fourth book I’ve read by her so I know now to expect the unexpected when it comes to her characters and storylines. If you enjoy twisty mysteries with unreliable characters and plenty of suspense, I can’t recommend The Perfect Friend highly enough. It will grab your attention from the very first page and I guarantee you’ll find it impossible to put down.
