Oh? You never mentioned that.’ This shouldn’t surprise Sienna. Greg rarely volunteers information about his son: she is always the one pushing him for details.

The Other Husband By Kathryn Croft |The Works

Marty is a cardiothoracic surgeon and Greg’s closest friend at work. She had no idea what cardiothoracic meant when she first applied for a job at St.Thomas’, but she’d made sure she did her research, spending hours filling herself up with medical information that wouldn’t ever come up in the interview. Although she’d had plenty of admin experience, none of it was in the medical field, so she needed an advantage to make her interviewers believe she was the only person for the job. It was never intended to be a career, just something interesting to delve into while she waited for inspiration to hit. Marty sits beside her; he’s the only one of Greg’s friends who bothers to engage her in conversation beyond a polite but forced greeting, and Sienna is fond of him, despite his wife.Ms.Croft’s books are all psychological thrillers wrapped around a human family story with characters that you will love..and love to hate. I proudly hand over 5 twisty messed-up stars to this book!!! I loved this and all the WTF moments… It was so freakin’ cool to read! Oh let’s just say... THAT ending!... 5 Stars from me!!!’ Goodreads Reviewer, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I don’t understand the point of the partner swap, if not to have sex. I don’t even care, these four characters are all insipid. Sienna spends the entire book jumping to conclusions based on the most tenuous of links. Rob thinks so little of his wife, he’s ready to believe she slept with and murdered Greg. His mother is a 1 dimensional stereotype. Abby is just weak willed. None of them have any substance and their actions make no sense at all. The book is twice as long as it needs to be.

An extremely twisty plot centring around the disappearance of a central character… the plots twists all over the place with a final one which took me completely by surprise. A well written, enjoyable thriller.’ Lesley Sanderson, author of The Birthday Weekend

So many twists and turns! ... Hard to put down and worth every moment.’ NetGalley review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Now Rob was the least hated. I felt bad for him because he didn't want to play Sienna's silly game (with reason!!) but he lost big at the end. But in a way, it was his fault too since he chose to trust Sienna instead of his wife. Had he stood by Abby, they could have won against their own demons but oh well, he lets Sienna mess with his mind until it was too late. I proudly hand over 5 twisty messed-up stars to this book!!! I loved this and all the WTF moments… It was so freakin’ cool to read! Very interesting plot(s) going on here!! Twisted, twisty, dark, sad, awesome!!! Oh let’s just say... THAT ending!... 5 Stars from me!!!’ Goodreads Reviewer, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One night Sienna comes up with an idea for the women to swap husbands for the night - this results in their lives being changed forever from events that unfolded. One of the husbands goes missing and one of the women will stop at nothing to find out what has happened to him. But this felt like an 8 hour long stage play with three scenes: Sienna’s house, Abby’s house or outside.Soriano, César G. (October 5, 2009). "Niffenegger finds 'Symmetry' in death for second novel". USA Today . Retrieved October 7, 2009. She does this even though she’s dreading the dinner as it is, let alone having to walk into that place without Greg, to face the questioning glances of the other wives. She tells herself she can do it, that she’s managed many times before so it’s no problem to do it again. After all, wasn’t she adept at putting on a show, a pretence that everything was perfect? Greg isn’t running late on purpose – it can’t be helped. He’d been about to leave when he’d had to take over a colleague’s operation – an emergency hysterectomy. The surgeon’s wife had collapsed at home and was rushed to a hospital near their home in Surrey. Being married to a consultant gynaecologist, Sienna is used to Greg being on call, having to deal with emergencies that keep him away from home, but lately, more often than not, he seems to take every opportunity to stay away as late as possible. And, wow I didn't see the plot twists coming in this story. I was even wrong with what I thought had happened. Don't you just love when authors write in a way where the meaning could mean different things. After years of reading thrillers, you would think I would get used to it now. Rob leans across and kisses the top of her head. ‘I know you’re finding it hard not having a job here yet. A school will snap you up in no time, though.’

The Other Husband by Kathryn Croft | Waterstones

Both main characters and their POVS are fantastic. I found both women relatable to a degree. The book starts with both women (Abby and Sienna) being friends after meeting at a pilates class that was cancelled. Their friendship progressed to their husbands also becoming friends and a tight social circle was formed. Abby wants to tell Rob and Sienna the truth but can’t risk Greg sharing what he knows about her. She has no choice but to keep quiet. When Greg suddenly disappears. it questions whether he is running away from his secrets or has someone decided they can’t risk that he may share theirs?Oh, what a great ride this book was ... her best book yet! She writes a great story... keeps you guessing right to the very end! I absolutely loved this book ... can't wait to see what she comes up with next!' Goodreads Reviewer, Rushing to the window, she peers through the blinds, although from upstairs it’s impossible to see who is standing on the doorstep. Sienna’s car is parked haphazardly across the drive. It almost looks as if it would have taken more effort to get it at that angle than if she’d kept it straight. No need to wake Rob, then. Sienna has come for her.
