Eden Fox, an artist on the brink of her big break, sets off for a run before her first exhibition. When she returns to the home she recently moved into, Spyglass, an enchanting old house in Hope Falls, nothing is as it should be. Her key doesn’t fit. A woman, eerily similar to her, answers the door. And her husband insists that the stranger is his wife.

One house. One husband. Two women. Someone is lying.

Six months earlier, a reclusive Londoner called Birdy, reeling from a life-changing diagnosis, inherits Spyglass. This unexpected gift from a long-lost grandmother brings her to the pretty seaside village of Hope Falls. But then Birdy stumbles upon a shadowy London clinic that claims to be able to predict a person's date of death, including her own. Secrets start to unravel, and as the line between truth and lies blurs, Birdy feels compelled to right some old wrongs.

My Husband’s Wife is a tangled web of deception, obsession, and mystery that will keep you guessing until the last page. Prepare yourself for the ultimate mind-bending marriage thriller and step inside Spyglass – if you dare – to experience a story where nothing is as it seems.

This book had me guessing the entire time! I liked the majority of the characters. There is one part I still have questions about, but I won't spoil the story! This was jaw dropping to the fullest! Definitely see that ending coming!

I just finished My Husband’s Wife by Alice Feeney for our Chapters & Chats Bookclub, and I have mixed feelings. The story started off a bit slow for me. At first, I was confused about how a simple morning jog completely changed her life was it just chance, or was it part of her plan? That uncertainty kept me guessing and added a subtle layer of suspense, but it did take a while to fully draw me in. As the book progressed, the tension and twists really picked up, making it hard to put down. Feeney’s skill at manipulating perspective and weaving secrets made the story addictive, even if the beginning felt a little disorienting. Overall, it’s a gripping psychological thriller, and I’m glad I stuck with it. Perfect for our book club discussions there’s so much to unpack about intentions, trust, and the choices that change lives.

Alice Feeney definitely knows how to keep a reader on their toes! My Husband’s Wife was incredibly twisty and engaging from the very first page. I loved the dark atmosphere and the way the suspense just kept building.
The biggest downside however was there was so much going on at once. By the end, there were so many twists that I actually started to get whiplash. It was a bit of a struggle to keep up with every single reveal, but it was still a wild, addictive ride. A must-read for thriller fans—just make sure you’re paying close attention!

My Husband’s Wife by Alice Feeney is a cleverly plotted psychological thriller with plenty of twists and a hint of spice. The story moves quickly, keeping you guessing from one chapter to the next, and Feeney does a great job of building suspense through multiple perspectives. While it’s not a book I’ll linger on after finishing, it’s an entertaining and engaging read that’s perfect for a cozy afternoon or a fast-paced reading session.
