The beautiful bride

Annie never believed in true love. Not until she caught sight of Mark on a crowded commuter train. It wasn't until months later that they finally had their picture-perfect first date and after a whirlwind romance, they are now about to tie the knot.

The handsome groom

Both Annie and Mark have suffered tragedy – their shared experience of sorrow has brought them together, but at times the pressure of those losses has also threatened their happiness. Today they will leave all of that in the past, and forge a new life. But not everyone gathered here has come to toast the new couple.

The stranger

And Annie quickly realises that her new life isn't going to be the happily ever after she had planned.

A completely unputdownable, brilliantly sharp, dark and twisty story of love, lies and obsession that is set to be one of 2024's most talked about debuts.

5* A tale of obsessive love

This addictive thriller opens at Annie and Mark's wedding. There's a mystery regarding what happened to Mark's first wife and a detective investigating her disappearance arrives at the wedding reception - he's an uninvited guest and the stranger in the book title. Before leaving he talks to Mark, whatever was said had a serious impact, resulting in Mark becoming withdrawn and distant.

I found the beginning slow, but once Annie and Mark's pasts are revealed, I was hooked. Not a book suitable for merely a few minutes of reading. This needs plenty of time to fully absorb the complexities of the plot and attention is definitely required due to several timelines. Even with the author giving clues and hints I was taken by surprise at the ending.
