Behind Her Eyes

Only two can keep a secret if one of them is dead. David and Adele seem like the ideal pair. He’s a successful psychiatrist, she is his picture-perfect wife who adores him. But why is he so controlling? And why is she keeping things hidden?As Louise, David’s new secretary, is drawn into their orbit, she uncovers more puzzling questions than answers. The only thing that is crystal clear is that something in this marriage is very, very wrong. But Louise can’t guess how wrong – and how far a person might go to protect their marriage’s secrets.Behind Her Eyes is a cunning puzzle-box of a novel, a masterfully engineered thriller that brings to mind Hitchcock at his most uncanny, and Rendell at her most relentless. Lean and mean, dark and disturbing, this is the kind of novel that takes over your life. Sarah Pinborough slays.” – Joe Hill, New York Times bestselling author of NOS4A2 ” Behind Her Eyes is a dark, electrifying page-turner with a corker of an ending. Sarah Pinborough is about to become your new obsession.” – Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Fool Me Once “The strongest, most unsettling thriller of the year, with a final twist destined to provoke arguments for years to come. Read it now before someone spoils the ending for you.” – John Connolly, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Charlie Parker novels “A modern love triangle with so many mind-screws you start questioning if maybe this particular triangle has more than three points. It’s funny, it’s cold, it’s modern. A master-class in juggling moods and the two sides to every story. And, wow, that ending. Pinborough’s latest had me questioning everything. And the answers that eventually came frightened me more than the unknown preceding them. I loved Behind Her Eyes. It’s a modern love triangle thriller and it would make one helluva movie.” – Josh Malerman, bestselling author of Bird Box “A deliciously dark love story that will keep you guessing. Shocking, gleeful, and thrilling, welcome to the world of Sarah Pinborough.” – Sarah Langan, three-time Bran Stoker Award winning novelist “If Behind Her Eyes isn’t the thriller of the year, there is no justice. Hugely entertaining, utterly compelling and the ending will leave you reeling.” – Sarah Lotz, author of The Three “Walking the tightrope between psychological and supernatural thriller with effortless ease and delicacy, Behind Her Eyes has everything a thriller needs: fully realized characters, peerless writing, a tank of a plot that sustains the suspense right to the end, and a whammy of a finale that hits you like a cartoon piano falling onto a rabbit’s head. It takes a lot to catch me out, but this one did. It’ll get you, too? ” – Joanne Harris, author of Chocolat “
