Think you know the person you married? Think again…
Things have been wrong with Mr and Mrs Wright for a long time. When Adam and Amelia win a weekend away to Scotland, it might be just what their marriage needs. Self-confessed workaholic and screenwriter Adam Wright has lived with face blindness his whole life. He can’t recognize friends or family, or even his own wife.
Every anniversary the couple exchange traditional gifts – paper, cotton, pottery, tin – and each year Adam’s wife writes him a letter that she never lets him read. Until now. They both know this weekend will make or break their marriage, but they didn’t randomly win this trip. One of them is lying, and someone doesn’t want them to live happily ever after.
Ten years of marriage. Ten years of secrets. And an anniversary they will never forget.
Rock Paper Scissors is the latest exciting domestic thriller from the queen of the killer twist, New York Times bestselling author Alice Feeney.
My thoughts about Rock Paper Scissors ~~
(I love to note the first lines of the books I'm reading. First lines can really grab a reader's attention and I love seeing where the author takes the reader after their first line.)
First line—"February 2020. My husband doesn't recognize my face."
Whew! What a twisty ride this one was. Not only was the setting sinister—an abandoned mansion in the middle of nowhere, during a nasty snowstorm—but then the unexplained happenings in the house had me on edge from the get-go.
All through the book, you know that things aren't right—with the place and with the people—but you won't be able to wrap your head around what it is. Until you do. Once that twist is revealed, then you are taken on a whole new ride.
Rock Paper Scissors is a one-of-a-kind thriller that takes the reader down a road they have not gone down before. I loved that uniqueness and highly recommend this one.
I received a copy of Rock Paper Scissors from the publisher via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.
