Behind Her Eyes
Louise is a single mother getting by on a part-time job and quiet nights at home. Then two people walk into her life. First there's David, her charming new boss, with whom she shares a drunken kiss she immediately regrets. Then there's Adele, a beautiful, anxious woman she runs into on the street and befriends, only to realize too late that Adele is David's wife.
From the outside, David and Adele look like the perfect couple. But David is strangely controlling, Adele is clearly hiding something, and the more time Louise spends with each of them, the less their marriage adds up. Caught between the man she's falling for and the woman who has become her closest friend, Louise starts digging for the truth, with no idea how far someone might go to keep it buried.
Twisty, addictive, and impossible to put down, Behind Her Eyes is the psychological thriller that became a word-of-mouth phenomenon for an ending no one sees coming. The less you know going in, the better.
