My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing FIC DOW

     I always like a psychological thriller and this was no exception.  The plot is exceptional.
      The story begins in a bar.  A man begins to flirt with a woman by pushing his phone toward her to introduce himself - Tobias, and he is deaf.  With his ability to read lips they begin a flirty conversation.
     In reality "Tobias" is an alias and he isn't deaf.  He is looking for a mark.  He is in fact a father and a husband who is wildly in love with Millicent, his wife.  "Tobias" is the narrator of the story and we never do learn his name.
     Throughout the book we learn more about the background of these two people and why killing women is the thing that spices up their marriage.  In the meantime they live their lives as if they are your normal couple.
     It's different and I enjoyed it!
