Description
The perfect couple … or the perfect lie?
A devoted wife…
A year ago, Gemma met the love of her life, Danny. Since then, their relationship has been perfect. But one evening, Danny doesn’t return home.
A missing husband…
Gemma turns to the police. She is horrified by what she discovers – a serial killer is on the loose in Bristol. When she sees photos of the victims she is even more stunned…they all look just like Danny.
Who would you believe?
But the police are suspicious. Why has no one apart from Gemma heard from Danny in weeks? Why is there barely a trace of him in their flat? Is she telling them the truth, or is this marriage hiding some very dark secrets?

I started and finished this book today and absolutely could not put it down.. There appears to be a serial killer on the loose and Gemma’s husband is missing. Has he become the next victim? I sure thought I had this one figured out, but I was sooo wrong! Great thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat!

This book was SO good! It reminded me of Gone Girl, how the twists and turns just kept coming. This book had me literally saying "what!!" while I was reading it. I can easily see this book as a movie or TV miniseries. I am recommending this book to all of my friends who like psychological thrillers, and can't wait to read more by this author. I received a free copy of this book from netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

OMG THIS BOOK. As your average crime-lover youngster, I went into this already having high expectations and whew! It did NOT disappoint! I did not expect this book to go where it did.

Let me start with I would really rate this book probably at 3.5. I did enjoy the book even though I felt it was a bit slow at times and not really a thriller. It was more of a cozy mystery with a little thriller action. There were some surprise twist and turns for sure. I LOVE the cover of the book too. I think it was the perfect cover and made me want to read it. Gemma and Danny recently moved to Bristol and life doesn't go as planned (which it never seems too). As you get to know more about Gemma and Danny after he goes missing, you begin to realize that their marriage is full of lies. While the book is not really gripping or a complete thriller it was a fun, easy to read mystery told from several points of view. Some of the plots were fun to figure out and others were surprising. I would certainly enjoy reading another book by Jackie Kabler. Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to review this book.

The perfect couple is a very twisty and gripping yet slower paced psychological thriller. Some areas may stretch things a little too far but it didn’t stop me from enjoying the story. I enjoyed the serial killer and missing person twist it kept things rolling for me. The police procedural was nicely written and the chanters were complex. This is a nice keep you guessing twist and turns book if that’s what you’re looking for, I recommend it!

Sipping thoughts: I called what was going on early on even though I was torn between two story lines. I was surprised to know why and was extremely shocked with the turn of events (the last 15%). The last part of the book moved the book from three to four stars.
Cheers and thank you to @Harper360 and @Netgalley for an advanced copy of @ThePerfectCouple.
